A subset $S$ of a vertex set of a graph $G$ is a total $(k,r)$-dominating set if every vertex $u \in V(G)$ is within distance $k$ of at least $r$ vertices in $S$. The minimum cardinality among all total $(k,r)$-dominating sets of $G$ is…

The study of the structural properties of large random planar graphs has become in recent years a field of intense research in computer science and discrete mathematics. Nowadays, a random planar graph is an important and challenging model…

We show that every (sub)cubic n-vertex graph with sufficiently large girth has fractional chromatic number at most 2.2978 which implies that it contains an independent set of size at least 0.4352n. Our bound on the independence number is…

Consider the probability that a binomial random variable Bi$(n,m/n)$ with integer expectation $m$ is at most its expectation. Chv\'atal conjectured that for any given $n$, this probability is smallest when $m$ is the integer closest to…

We analyze a minimal model of a growing network. At each time step, a new vertex is added; then, with probability delta, two vertices are chosen uniformly at random and joined by an undirected edge. This process is repeated for t time…

We give a combinatorial proof of the following theorem. Let $G$ be any finite group acting transitively on a set of cardinality $n$. If $S \subseteq G$ is a random set of size $k$, with $k \geq (\log n)^{1+\varepsilon}$ for some…

A celebrated conjecture of Zs. Tuza says that in any (finite) graph, the minimum size of a cover of triangles by edges is at most twice the maximum size of a set of edge-disjoint triangles. Resolving a recent question of Bennett, Dudek, and…

Local convergence techniques have become a key methodology to study sparse random graphs. However, convergence of many random graph properties does not directly follow from local convergence. A notable, and important, such random graph…

For integers $g,m \geq 0$ and $n>0$, let $S_{g}(n,m)$ denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all graphs on $\{1,2, \ldots, n\}$ with exactly $m=m(n)$ edges and with genus at most $g$. We use counting arguments to…

We introduce the study of \textit{randomly oriented divisor graphs}. For each $\rho \in [0,1]$, the randomly oriented divisor graph $\mathcal{D}_\rho(N)$ is obtained from the divisor graph on $\{1, 2, \ldots, N\}$ by directing each edge…

We show that in three different critical regimes, the masses of the connected components of rank-2 multiplicative random graph converge to lengths of excursions of a thinned L\'{e}vy process, perhaps with random coefficients. The three…

The classical random graph model $G(n,\lambda/n)$ satisfies a `duality principle', in that removing the giant component from a supercritical instance of the model leaves (essentially) a subcritical instance. Such principles have been proved…

We consider bond percolation on random graphs with given degrees and bounded average degree. In particular, we consider the order of the largest component after the random deletion of the edges of such a random graph. We give a rough…

As we add rigid bars between points in the plane, at what point is there a giant (linear-sized) rigid component, which can be rotated and translated, but which has no internal flexibility? If the points are generic, this depends only on the…

Let $F(N,m)$ denote a random forest on a set of $N$ vertices, chosen uniformly from all forests with $m$ edges. Let $F(N,p)$ denote the forest obtained by conditioning the Erdos-Renyi graph $G(N,p)$ to be acyclic. We describe scaling limits…

The $k$-core of a graph is the largest subgraph of minimum degree at least $k$. We show that for $k$ sufficiently large, the $(k + 2)$-core of a random graph $\G(n,p)$ asymptotically almost surely has a spanning $k$-regular subgraph. Thus…

Consider the random graph $G({\mathcal P}_{n},r)$ whose vertex set ${\mathcal P}_{n}$ is a Poisson point process of intensity $n$ on $(- \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2}]^d$, $d \geq 2$. Any two vertices $X_i,X_j \in {\mathcal P}_{n}$ are connected…

We use a theorem by Ding, Lubetzky and Peres describing the structure of the giant component of random graphs in the strictly supercritical regime, in order to determine the typical size of MAXCUT of $G\sim G\left(n,\frac…

The $k$-representation number of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of the system of vertex subsets with the property that every edge of $G$ is covered at least $k$ times while every non-edge is covered at most $(k-1)$ times. In…

A significant generalization of the Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graph model is an `inhomogeneous' random graph where the edge probabilities vary according to vertex types. We identify the threshold value for this random graph with a finite…
