Connected components in random regular graphs

Suppose we take a random regular graph $G_{2n, r}$, where $n$ is large. Let us also assume that $r$ is fixed, (not dependent on $n$). Let's say that half of the vertices of the graph are colored black ...

Another betweenness centrality measure: neighbourhood centrality

Among the many centrality measures that I have heard of, I miss the following (but maybe I'm just blind). Consider a graph $G$ with $k$ connected components $G_i$ of size $|G_i|$. The number of node ...

Reference request - random regular graphs vs random graphs w/ degree sequence

There are some properties that are easily studied for random d-regular graphs, but that are very hard to extend to random graphs with a given degree sequence (e.g. whether a graph is w.h.p. ...

Unique maximum degree in tournament

Consider a uniform random tournament with $n$ vertices. (Between any two vertices $x,y$, with probability $0.5$ draw an edge from $x$ to $y$; otherwise draw an edge from $y$ to $x$.) Let $p(n)$ denote ...

Graphons and Graphs

The situation is as follows: assume we have a sequence of simple weighted graphs $(G_n)_{n\in\Bbb{N}}$. For the terminology that follows I refer to Limits of dense graph sequences by László Lovász and ...

Electrode assignment problem in resistive networks

Main question In the context of resistor networks, and particularly purely from a graph theory point of view, is there a consistent way of assigning the two electrode nodes in order to compare the ...

The properties of almost all directed graphs

A mathematician on the forum previously requested a reference on human brains modelled as directed graphs. This makes sense as neurons are mostly unidirectional and I have been thinking about similar ...

Asymptotic formula for the number of connected graphs

It can be shown that the set of graphs with $N$ vertices $G_N$ has cardinality: \begin{equation} \lvert G_N \rvert = 2^{N \choose 2} \tag{1} \end{equation} Recently, I wondered how much bigger $\...

How to use probability to find a matching in a family of graphs?

In a conference, I heard that we can use some probabilistic methods to find a matching in some kind of graphs. I would like to see some examples of such technics. Can someone provide some references ...

What is the expected distance between the sides of a random subgraph of the grid?

Let $G$ be the $n \times n$ grid, in which each vertex is connected to the vertices above it, below it and on either side. Let $G_p$ be the random subgraph of $G$ obtained by keeping each edge with ...

Citations graphs: what is known?

There has been much research related to web graphs and social graphs. They can be thought of as a kind of random graphs, but the point is that they are different from the well-known Erdős–Rényi model. ...

Minimum dominating sets in tournaments

It is known that in any tournament with $n$ vertices, there is a dominating set of size no more than $\lceil \log_2 n\rceil$. (See Fact 2.5 here.) What about when the tournament is chosen ...
