We show that the independence number of $ G_{n,p}$ is concentrated on two values if $ n^{-2/3+ \epsilon} < p \le 1$. This result is roughly best possible as an argument of Sah and Sawhney shows that the independence number is not, in…

In this note we generalize the results of the recent work by Tom Bohman and Jacob Hofstad on the independence number in G(n, p) to the case of the random k-uniform hypergraph. Concentration in two values occurs in the regime…

We show that the domination number of the binomial random graph G_{n,p} with edge-probability p is concentrated on two values for p \ge n^{-2/3+\eps}, and not concentrated on two values for general p \le n^{-2/3}. This refutes a conjecture…

Let $P(n,m)$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from the class of all planar graphs on vertex set $[n]:=\left\{1, \ldots, n\right\}$ with $m=m(n)$ edges. We show that in the sparse regime, when $m/n\leq 1$, with high probability the…

Let $P(n,m)$ be a graph chosen uniformly at random from the class of all planar graphs on vertex set $\left\{1, \ldots, n\right\}$ with $m=m(n)$ edges. We show that in the sparse regime, when $\limsup_{n \to \infty} m/n<1$, with high…

The size of a largest independent set of vertices in a given graph $G$ is denoted by $\alpha(G)$ and is called its independence number (or stability number). Given a graph $G$ and an integer $K,$ it is NP-complete to decide whether…

The independence polynomial of a graph $G$ is the generating polynomial corresponding to its independent sets of different sizes. More formally, if $a_k(G)$ denotes the number of independent sets of $G$ of size $k$ then \[I(G,z) \as…

The binomial random bipartite graph $G(n,n,p)$ is the random graph formed by taking two partition classes of size $n$ and including each edge between them independently with probability $p$. It is known that this model exhibits a similar…

We study random graphs, both $G(n,p)$ and $G(n,m)$, with random orientations on the edges. For three fixed distinct vertices s,a,b we study the correlation, in the combined probability space, of the events a -> s and s -> b. For G(n,p), we…

We study the theory $T_{m,n}$ of existentially closed incidence structures omitting the complete incidence structure $K_{m,n}$, which can also be viewed as existentially closed $K_{m,n}$-free bipartite graphs. In the case $m = n = 2$, this…

From around 2010 onward, Elsner et al.,developed and applied a method in which the algebraic independence of n quantities x_1,...,x_n over a field is transferred to further n quantities y_1,...,y_n by means of a system of polynomials in 2n…

Let $G$ be a simple, connected and finite graph with order $n$. Denote the independence number, edge independence number and total independence number by $\alpha(G), \alpha'(G)$ and $\alpha"(G)$ respectively. This paper establishes a…

The celebrated Frieze's result about the independence number of $G(n,p)$ states that it is concentrated in an interval of size $o(1/p)$ for all $C_{\varepsilon}/n<p=o(1)$. We show concentration in an interval of size $o(1/p)$ for the…

For a given connected graph G on n vertices and m edges, we prove that its independence number is at least (2m+n+2-sqrt(sqr(2m+n+2)-16sqr(n)))/8.

We consider two variants of the induced subgraph isomorphism problem for two independent binomial random graphs with constant edge-probabilities p_1,p_2. In particular, (i) we prove a sharp threshold result for the appearance of G_{n,p_1}…

In this paper we study the behaviour of the domination number of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $\mathcal{G}(n,p)$. Extending a result of Wieland and Godbole we show that the domination number of $\mathcal{G}(n,p)$ is equal to one of…

It is an open problem whether $ \binom{2n}{n} $ is divisible by 4 or 9 for all $n>256$. In connection with this, we prove that for a fixed uneven $m$ the asymptotic density of $k$'s such that $ m \nmid \binom{2^{k+1}}{2^{k}} $ is 0. To do…

We study multiplicative dependence between terms of the $k$-generalized Pell sequence $(P_n^{(k)})_{n\ge 2-k}$, defined by the linear recurrence \[ P_n^{(k)} = 2P_{n-1}^{(k)} + P_{n-2}^{(k)} + \dots + P_{n-k}^{(k)}, \] with initial…

Estimating the parameters from $k$ independent Bin$(n,p)$ random variables, when both parameters $n$ and $p$ are unknown, is relevant to a variety of applications. It is particularly difficult if $n$ is large and $p$ is small. Over the past…

The independence polynomial of a graph is the generating polynomial for the number of independent sets of each size, and its roots are called {\em independence roots}. We investigate the stability of such polynomials, that is, conditions…
