    Almost spanning subgraphs of random graphs after adversarial edge removal

    Full text link
    Let Delta>1 be a fixed integer. We show that the random graph G(n,p) with p>>(log n/n)^{1/Delta} is robust with respect to the containment of almost spanning bipartite graphs H with maximum degree Delta and sublinear bandwidth in the following sense: asymptotically almost surely, if an adversary deletes arbitrary edges in G(n,p) such that each vertex loses less than half of its neighbours, then the resulting graph still contains a copy of all such H.Comment: 46 pages, 6 figure

    Rainbow independent sets on dense graph classes

    Full text link
    Given a family I\mathcal{I} of independent sets in a graph, a rainbow independent set is an independent set II such that there is an injection ϕ ⁣:II\phi\colon I\to \mathcal{I} where for each vIv\in I, vv is contained in ϕ(v)\phi(v). Aharoni, Briggs, J. Kim, and M. Kim [Rainbow independent sets in certain classes of graphs. arXiv:1909.13143] determined for various graph classes C\mathcal{C} whether C\mathcal{C} satisfies a property that for every nn, there exists N=N(C,n)N=N(\mathcal{C},n) such that every family of NN independent sets of size nn in a graph in C\mathcal{C} contains a rainbow independent set of size nn. In this paper, we add two dense graph classes satisfying this property, namely, the class of graphs of bounded neighborhood diversity and the class of rr-powers of graphs in a bounded expansion class

    In this note, we provide a sharp upper bound on the rainbow connection number of tournaments of diameter 22. For a tournament TT of diameter 22, we show 2rc(T)32 \leq \overrightarrow{rc}(T) \leq 3. Furthermore, we provide a general upper bound on the rainbow kk-connection number of tournaments as a simple example of the probabilistic method. Finally, we show that an edge-colored tournament of kthk^{th} diameter 22 has rainbow kk-connection number at most approximately k2k^{2}
