This paper studies the following question of Bollob\'as and Scott: Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices and $p\binom{n}{2}$ edges. What is the smallest $c(p, n)$ such that there is an ordering $v_1, \ldots, v_n$ of the vertices in $G$ with…
In this paper, we study the {\sc Dominating Set} problem in random graphs. In a random graph, each pair of vertices are joined by an edge with a probability of $p$, where $p$ is a positive constant less than $1$. We show that, given a…
Given a graph, we associate each edge with the transposition which exchanges the endvertices. Fixing a linear order on the edge set, we obtain a permutation of the vertices. D\'enes proved that the permutation is a full cyclic permutation…
In the setting of Carnot groups, we are concerned with the rectifiability problem for subsets that have finite sub-Riemannian perimeter. We introduce a new notion of rectifiability that is, possibly, weaker than the one introduced by…
Given $\varepsilon>0$, there exists $f_0$ such that, if $f_0 \le f \le \Delta^2+1$, then for any graph $G$ on $n$ vertices of maximum degree $\Delta$ in which the neighbourhood of every vertex in $G$ spans at most $\Delta^2/f$ edges, (i) an…
We obtain a characterisation of confined subgroups of Thompson's group $F$. As a result, we deduce that orbital graph of a point under action of $F$ has uniformly subexponential growth if and only if this point is fixed by the commutator…
The generalized Ramsey number $f(n, p, q)$ is the smallest number of colors needed to color the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ so that every $p$-clique spans at least $q$ colors. Erd\H{o}s and Gy\'arf\'as showed that $f(n, p, q)$ grows…
We study the growth and isoperimetry of infinite clusters in slightly supercritical Bernoulli bond percolation on transitive nonamenable graphs under the $L^2$ boundedness condition ($p_c<p_{2\to 2}$). Surprisingly, we find that the volume…
Let $F$ be an $(r+1)$-color critical graph with $r\geq 2$, that is, $\chi(F)=r+1$ and there is an edge $e$ in $F$ such that $\chi(F-e)=r$. Gerbner recently conjectured that every $n$-vertex maximal $F$-free graph with at least…
A fundamental result in structural graph theory states that every graph with large average degree contains a large complete graph as a minor. We prove this result with the extra property that the minor is small with respect to the order of…
We consider an infinite graph G whose vertex set is the set of natural numbers and adjacency depends solely on the difference between vertices. We study the largest cardinality of a set of permutations of [n] any pair of which differ…
Let P_{n,m} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all planar graphs on {1,2,..., n} with exactly m(n) edges. We use counting arguments to investigate the probability that P_{n,m} will contain given components and…
The well-known Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal conjecture states that for any graph $F$, there exists $\epsilon>0$ such that every $n$-vertex graph $G$ that contains no induced copy of $F$ has a homogeneous set of size at least $n^{\epsilon}$. We consider…
In this work, we relate girth and path-degeneracy in classes with sub-exponential expansion, with explicit bounds for classes with polynomial expansion and proper minor-closed classes that are tight up to a constant factor (and tight up to…
Graphs of bounded degeneracy are known to contain induced paths of order $\Omega(\log \log n)$ when they contain a path of order $n$, as proved by Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and Ossona de Mendez (2012). In 2016 Esperet, Lemoine, and Maffray…
Let $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ be a finite chain and let $\mathcal{CT}_{n}$ be the semigroup of full contractions on $[n]$. Denote $\mathcal{ORCT}_{n}$ and $\mathcal{OCT}_{n}$ to be the subsemigroup of order preserving or reversing and the…
For a unimodular random graph $(G,\rho)$, we consider deformations of its intrinsic path metric by a (random) weighting of its vertices. This leads to the notion of the conformal growth exponent of $(G,\rho)$, which is the best asymptotic…
We consider the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$, where $p$ is a constant, and answer the following two questions. First, given $e(k)=p{k\choose 2}+O(k)$, what is the maximum $k$ such that a.a.s.~the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ has an…
Denote by $A_n$ the set of square $(0,1)$ matrices of order $n$. The set $A_n$, $n\le8$, is partitioned into row/column permutation equivalence classes enabling derivation of various facts by simple counting. For example, the number of…
For every $q\in \mathbb N$ let $\textrm{FO}_q$ denote the class of sentences of first-order logic FO of quantifier rank at most $q$. If a graph property can be defined in $\textrm{FO}_q$, then it can be decided in time $O(n^q)$. Thus,…
