A Cayley graph on the symmetric group $S_n$ is said to have the Aldous property if its strictly second largest eigenvalue (that is, the largest eigenvalue strictly smaller than the degree) is attained by the standard representation of…

Random graphs defined by an occurrence probability that is invariant under node aggregation have been identified recently in the context of network renormalization. The invariance property requires that edges are drawn with a specific…

Let $G$ be a $d$-regular multigraph, and let $\lambda_2(G)$ be the second largest eigenvalue of $G$. In this paper, we prove that if $\lambda_2(G) < \frac{d-1+\sqrt{9d^2-10d+17}}4$, then $G$ is 2-edge-connected. Furthermore, for $t\ge2$ we…

Fix a constant $C\geq 1$ and let $d=d(n)$ satisfy $d\leq \ln^{C} n$ for every large integer $n$. Denote by $A_n$ the adjacency matrix of a uniform random directed $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. We show that, as long as $d\to\infty$ with…

The genus of a graph is a topological invariant that measures the minimum genus of a surface on which the graph can be embedded without any edges crossing. Graph genus plays a fundamental role in topological graph theory, used to classify…

Let \mathcal{F}_k denote the family of 2-edge-colored complete graphs on 2k vertices in which one color forms either a clique of order k or two disjoint cliques of order k. Bollob\'as conjectured that for every \epsilon>0 and positive…

Consider a finite sequence of independent random permutations, chosen uniformly either among all permutations or among all matchings on n points. We show that, in probability, as n goes to infinity, these permutations viewed as operators on…

Let $S_n$ denote the symmetric group on $n$ elements, and $\Sigma\subseteq S_{n}$ a symmetric subset of permutations. Aldous' spectral gap conjecture, proved by Caputo, Liggett and Richthammer [arXiv:0906.1238], states that if $\Sigma$ is a…

We consider {\em monotone} embeddings of a finite metric space into low dimensional normed space. That is, embeddings that respect the order among the distances in the original space. Our main interest is in embeddings into Euclidean…

Denote the Laplacian of a graph $G$ by $L(G)$ and its second smallest Laplacian eigenvalue by $\lambda_2(G)$. If $G$ is a graph on $n\ge 2$ vertices, then it is shown that the second smallest eigenvalue of $L(G) + \frac{1}{n}…

Given a graph $G$ and $p\in [0,1]$, the random subgraph $G_p$ is obtained by retaining each edge of $G$ independently with probability $p$. We show that for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a constant $C>0$ such that the following holds.…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, let $bc(G)$ denote the minimum number of pairwise edge disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ so that each edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one of them. It is easy to see that for every graph $G$, $bc(G) \leq n…

We show that if $G$ is a graph on $n$ vertices, with all degrees comparable to some $d = d(n)$, and without a sparse cut, for a suitably chosen notion of sparseness, then it contains a complete minor of order \[ \Omega\left( \sqrt{\frac{n…

We consider the problem $(\mathrm{P})$ of fitting $n$ standard Gaussian random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$ to the boundary of a centered ellipsoid, as $n, d \to \infty$. This problem is conjectured to have a sharp feasibility transition: for…

We prove a `resilience' version of Dirac's theorem in the setting of random regular graphs. More precisely, we show that, whenever $d$ is sufficiently large compared to $\varepsilon>0$, a.a.s. the following holds: let $G'$ be any subgraph…

Let $G_n$ be a random geometric graph with vertex set $[n]$ based on $n$ i.i.d.\ random vectors $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ drawn from an unknown density $f$ on $\R^d$. An edge $(i,j)$ is present when $\|X_i -X_j\| \le r_n$, for a given threshold…

Let $G$ be a connected (non-complete) $d$-regular graph with $d\geq3$. Let $c(G-S)$ denote the number of components of $G-S$ for any cut $S$ of $G$. The toughness $t(G)$ of $G$ is defined as $\min\left\{\frac{|S|}{c(G-S)}\right\}$, where…

It is a classical fact that for any $\varepsilon > 0$, a random permutation of length $n = (1 + \varepsilon) k^2 / 4$ typically contains a monotone subsequence of length $k$. As a far-reaching generalization, Alon conjectured that a random…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges and let $k$ be a natural number such that $k\leq n.$ Brouwer conjectured that the sum of the $k$ largest Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$ is at most $m+{k+1 \choose 2}.$ In this paper we…

One deals with r-regular bipartite graphs with 2n vertices. In a previous paper Butera, Pernici, and the author have introduced a quantity d(i), a function of the number of i-matchings, and conjectured that as n goes to infinity the…
