Cycles in Random Bipartite Graphs
In this paper we study cycles in random bipartite graph . We prove
that if , then a.a.s. satisfies the following. Every
subgraph with more than edges contains a
cycle of length for all even . Our theorem
complements a previous result on bipancyclicity, and is closely related to a
recent work of Lee and Samotij.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure
Local resilience and Hamiltonicity Maker-Breaker games in random-regular graphs
For an increasing monotone graph property \mP the \emph{local resilience}
of a graph with respect to \mP is the minimal for which there exists
of a subgraph with all degrees at most such that the removal
of the edges of from creates a graph that does not possesses \mP.
This notion, which was implicitly studied for some ad-hoc properties, was
recently treated in a more systematic way in a paper by Sudakov and Vu. Most
research conducted with respect to this distance notion focused on the Binomial
random graph model \GNP and some families of pseudo-random graphs with
respect to several graph properties such as containing a perfect matching and
being Hamiltonian, to name a few. In this paper we continue to explore the
local resilience notion, but turn our attention to random and pseudo-random
\emph{regular} graphs of constant degree. We investigate the local resilience
of the typical random -regular graph with respect to edge and vertex
connectivity, containing a perfect matching, and being Hamiltonian. In
particular we prove that for every positive and large enough values
of with high probability the local resilience of the random -regular
graph, \GND, with respect to being Hamiltonian is at least .
We also prove that for the Binomial random graph model \GNP, for every
positive and large enough values of , if
then with high probability the local resilience of \GNP with respect to being
Hamiltonian is at least . Finally, we apply similar
techniques to Positional Games and prove that if is large enough then with
high probability a typical random -regular graph is such that in the
unbiased Maker-Breaker game played on the edges of , Maker has a winning
strategy to create a Hamilton cycle.Comment: 34 pages. 1 figur
Bandwidth theorem for random graphs
A graph is said to have \textit{bandwidth} at most , if there exists a
labeling of the vertices by , so that whenever
is an edge of . Recently, B\"{o}ttcher, Schacht, and Taraz
verified a conjecture of Bollob\'{a}s and Koml\'{o}s which says that for every
positive , there exists such that if is an
-vertex -chromatic graph with maximum degree at most which has
bandwidth at most , then any graph on vertices with minimum
degree at least contains a copy of for large enough
. In this paper, we extend this theorem to dense random graphs. For
bipartite , this answers an open question of B\"{o}ttcher, Kohayakawa, and
Taraz. It appears that for non-bipartite the direct extension is not
possible, and one needs in addition that some vertices of have independent
neighborhoods. We also obtain an asymptotically tight bound for the maximum
number of vertex disjoint copies of a fixed -chromatic graph which one
can find in a spanning subgraph of with minimum degree .Comment: 29 pages, 3 figure
