A graph is locally irregular if the degrees of the end-vertices of every edge are distinct. An edge coloring of a graph G is locally irregular if every color induces a locally irregular subgraph of G. A colorable graph G is any graph which…

We study random labelings of graphs conditioned on a small number (typically one or two) peaks, i.e., local maxima. We show that the boundaries of level sets of a random labeling of a square with a single peak have dimension 2, in a…

A locally testable language L is a language with the property that for some non negative integer k, called the order of local testability, whether or not a word u is in the language L depends on (1) the prefix and suffix of the word u of…

Reed's $\omega$, $\Delta$, $\chi$ conjecture proposes that every graph satisfies $\chi\leq \lceil\frac 12(\Delta+1+\omega)\rceil$; it is known to hold for all claw-free graphs. In this paper we consider a local strengthening of this…

The class ${\cal L}_k$ of $k$-leaf powers consists of graphs $G=(V,E)$ that have a $k$-leaf root, that is, a tree $T$ with leaf set $V$, where $xy \in E$, if and only if the $T$-distance between $x$ and $y$ is at most $k$. Structure and…

We prove that no quantifier-free formula in the language of group theory can define the $\aleph_1$-half graph in a Polish group, thus generalising some results from [6]. We then pose some questions on the space of groups of automorphisms of…

For a finite typed graph on $n$ nodes and with type law $\mu,$ we define the so-called spectral potential $\rho_{\lambda}(\,\cdot,\,\mu),$ of the graph.From the $\rho_{\lambda}(\,\cdot,\,\mu)$ we obtain Kullback action or the deviation…

We show that a simple Markov chain, the Glauber dynamics, can efficiently sample independent sets almost uniformly at random in polynomial time for graphs in a certain class. The class is determined by boundedness of a new graph parameter…

In a fractional coloring, vertices of a graph are assigned measurable subsets of the real line and adjacent vertices receive disjoint subsets; the fractional chromatic number of a graph is at most $k$ if it has a fractional coloring in…

The hardcore model on a graph $G$ with parameter $\lambda>0$ is a probability measure on the collection of all independent sets of $G$, that assigns to each independent set $I$ a probability proportional to $\lambda^{|I|}$. In this paper we…

A theorem of Shearer states that every $n$-vertex triangle-free graph of maximum degree $d \geq 2$ contains an independent set of size at least $(d\log d - d + 1)/(d - 1)^2 \cdot n$. Ajtai, Koml\'{o}s, Pintz, Spencer and Szemer\'{e}di…

In the model of \emph{local computation algorithms} (LCAs), we aim to compute the queried part of the output by examining only a small (sublinear) portion of the input. Many recently developed LCAs on graph problems achieve time and space…

In this note we develop and clarify some of the basic combinatorial properties of the new notion of $n$-dependence (for $1\leq n < \omega$) recently introduced by Shelah. In the same way as dependence of a theory means its inability to…

Grebinski and Kucherov (1998) and Alon et al. (2004-2005) study the problem of learning a hidden graph for some especial cases, such as hamiltonian cycle, cliques, stars, and matchings. This problem is motivated by problems in chemical…

A locally irregular graph is a graph in which the end-vertices of every edge have distinct degrees. A locally irregular edge coloring of a graph G is any edge coloring of G such that each of the colors induces a locally irregular subgraph…

We show that for every graph $H$, there is a hereditary weakly sparse graph class $\mathcal C_H$ of unbounded treewidth such that the $H$-free (i.e., excluding $H$ as an induced subgraph) graphs of $\mathcal C_H$ have bounded treewidth.…

In its Euclidean form, the Dense Neighborhood Lemma (DNL) asserts that if $V$ is a finite set of points of $\mathbb{R}^N$ such that for each $v \in V$ the ball $B(v,1)$ intersects $V$ on at least $\delta |V|$ points, then for every…

We establish a threshold for the connectivity of certain random graphs whose (dependent) edges are determined by the uniform distributions on generalized Orlicz balls, crucially using their negative correlation properties. We also show the…

There has been a recent interest in understanding the power of local algorithms for optimization and inference problems on sparse graphs. Gamarnik and Sudan (2014) showed that local algorithms are weaker than global algorithms for finding…

In the way of proving Kneser's conjecture, L\'{a}szl\'{o} Lov\'{a}sz settled out a new lower bound for the chromatic number of graphs. He showed that if the hom complex $||Hom(\mathcal{K}_2, H)||$ of a graph $H$ is topologically…
