Can we remove the restriction on a parameter in Talagrand concentration inequality?

Recently I am trying to use Talagrand concentration inequality to do something on graphs. I find a version from the book of Molloy and Reed ''Graph Colouring and Probabilistics Method''. I attached a ...

Gamma and Poisson distributions and their relations to the randomness

I'm reading the following paper: https://academic.oup.com/bioinformatics/article/32/1/122/1743683 and in Figure 3 (Section 4.4) the authors have shown some vertex degree distributions: enter image ...

A one-sided/monotone version of min/max-stable distributions -- does this have a name?

In a couple of papers I am working on (in random graph theory) I have encountered the following property of certain probability distributions, which I will describe shortly, and I am wondering if this ...

Hammersley-Clifford theorem

The paper spatial interaction and the statistical analysis of lattice systems by Besag (1974) presents an alternative proof for the Hammersley-Clifford theorem. In order to prove the HM theorem, Besag ...

Understanding the finale of the proof of Komlós' and Szemerédi's limit distribution of Hamiltonian random graphs

My question is about the end of the proof of Theorem 1 in [Komlós, Szemerédi (1983)], more precisely the arguments in Subsection 2.3. Let me state the beautiful theorem I am trying to understand in my ...

Ensemble averaging in a random graph (or network) in the large $N$ limit [closed]

I have a random graph/network described by the adjacency matrix $(a_{ij})_{N\times N}$ where $a_{ij}=1$ with probability $p$. Each node in the graph is associated with a continuous quantity $\eta_i=\...

Asymptotically tight concentration of norms of subgaussian random vectors with independent coordinates, as the dimension $n \to \infty?$

Let $X=(X_1 \dots X_n)\in \mathbb{R}^n,$ be a subgaussian random vector so that $X_i$'s are independent, $\mathbb{E}X_i = 0, \mathbb{E}X_i^2=1.$ Before we pose our question, let's state the following: ...

Limit of normalized sum of Dirac measures at first $\lfloor p/2\rfloor$ eigenvalues of the sample covariance matrix, with Marcenko-Pastur assumptions?

Let $\lfloor{*}\rfloor$ denotes the nearest integer $\le *$. I'm asking myself the question what's the limit of the part of the empirical spectral distribution corresponding to the first $\lfloor{p/2}...

Expected number of perfect matchings in bounded degree bipartite graphs

Consider collection $\mathcal C_{n,n,\Delta}$ of every $2n$ vertex balanced bipartite graph of average degree $\Delta$. What is the expected number of perfect matching a graph in $\mathcal C_{n,n,\...

Multiple Bipartite graphs and matchings

I've been told recently that it's better i just for help regarding my 'specific' problem rather than lots of little questions around the same topic which appear somewhat unclear. I would first like to ...

Computation on Random Bipartite graphs

I'm looking at a random bipartite graph $K_{\omega(n)}*K_{\omega(n)}$ where $\mathrm{log}(n)\leq \omega(n) \leq n^{1/2}$, in which each of the $\omega(n)^{2}$ edges is placed randomly with probability ...

Concentration inequality for function of independent Bernoulli r.v.'s (related to random graph)

Consider a random undirected graph on a set of $n$ nodes, say $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, such that the probability of edge between nodes $i$ and $j$ is $p_{ij}$ (we may assume $p_{ij}=o(1)$ for all $i,j$, i....
