On the Typical Structure of Graphs in a Monotone Property
Given a graph property , it is interesting to determine the
typical structure of graphs that satisfy . In this paper, we
consider monotone properties, that is, properties that are closed under taking
subgraphs. Using results from the theory of graph limits, we show that if
is a monotone property and is the largest integer for which
every -colorable graph satisfies , then almost every graph with
is close to being a balanced -partite graph.Comment: 5 page
Integer symmetric matrices having all their eigenvalues in the interval [-2,2]
We completely describe all integer symmetric matrices that have all their
eigenvalues in the interval [-2,2]. Along the way we classify all signed
graphs, and then all charged signed graphs, having all their eigenvalues in
this same interval. We then classify subsets of the above for which the integer
symmetric matrices, signed graphs and charged signed graphs have all their
eigenvalues in the open interval (-2,2).Comment: 33 pages, 18 figure
The typical structure of maximal triangle-free graphs
Recently, settling a question of Erd\H{o}s, Balogh and
Pet\v{r}\'{i}\v{c}kov\'{a} showed that there are at most
-vertex maximal triangle-free graphs, matching the previously known lower
bound. Here we characterize the typical structure of maximal triangle-free
graphs. We show that almost every maximal triangle-free graph admits a
vertex partition such that is a perfect matching and is an
independent set.
Our proof uses the Ruzsa-Szemer\'{e}di removal lemma, the
Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits stability theorem, and recent results of
Balogh-Morris-Samotij and Saxton-Thomason on characterization of the structure
of independent sets in hypergraphs. The proof also relies on a new bound on the
number of maximal independent sets in triangle-free graphs with many
vertex-disjoint 's, which is of independent interest.Comment: 17 page
The Pure Virtual Braid Group Is Quadratic
If an augmented algebra K over Q is filtered by powers of its augmentation
ideal I, the associated graded algebra grK need not in general be quadratic:
although it is generated in degree 1, its relations may not be generated by
homogeneous relations of degree 2. In this paper we give a sufficient criterion
(called the PVH Criterion) for grK to be quadratic. When K is the group algebra
of a group G, quadraticity is known to be equivalent to the existence of a (not
necessarily homomorphic) universal finite type invariant for G. Thus the PVH
Criterion also implies the existence of such a universal finite type invariant
for the group G. We apply the PVH Criterion to the group algebra of the pure
virtual braid group (also known as the quasi-triangular group), and show that
the corresponding associated graded algebra is quadratic, and hence that these
groups have a (not necessarily homomorphic) universal finite type invariant.Comment: 53 pages, 15 figures. Some clarifications added and inaccuracies

The history of degenerate (bipartite) extremal graph problems
This paper is a survey on Extremal Graph Theory, primarily focusing on the
case when one of the excluded graphs is bipartite. On one hand we give an
introduction to this field and also describe many important results, methods,
problems, and constructions.Comment: 97 pages, 11 figures, many problems. This is the preliminary version
of our survey presented in Erdos 100. In this version 2 only a citation was

Linear-Space Approximate Distance Oracles for Planar, Bounded-Genus, and Minor-Free Graphs
A (1 + eps)-approximate distance oracle for a graph is a data structure that
supports approximate point-to-point shortest-path-distance queries. The most
relevant measures for a distance-oracle construction are: space, query time,
and preprocessing time. There are strong distance-oracle constructions known
for planar graphs (Thorup, JACM'04) and, subsequently, minor-excluded graphs
(Abraham and Gavoille, PODC'06). However, these require Omega(eps^{-1} n lg n)
space for n-node graphs. We argue that a very low space requirement is
essential. Since modern computer architectures involve hierarchical memory
(caches, primary memory, secondary memory), a high memory requirement in effect
may greatly increase the actual running time. Moreover, we would like data
structures that can be deployed on small mobile devices, such as handhelds,
which have relatively small primary memory. In this paper, for planar graphs,
bounded-genus graphs, and minor-excluded graphs we give distance-oracle
constructions that require only O(n) space. The big O hides only a fixed
constant, independent of \epsilon and independent of genus or size of an
excluded minor. The preprocessing times for our distance oracle are also faster
than those for the previously known constructions. For planar graphs, the
preprocessing time is O(n lg^2 n). However, our constructions have slower query
times. For planar graphs, the query time is O(eps^{-2} lg^2 n). For our
linear-space results, we can in fact ensure, for any delta > 0, that the space
required is only 1 + delta times the space required just to represent the graph
itself
Word graphs: The third set
This is the third paper in a series of natural language processing in term of knowledge graphs. A word is a basic unit in natural language processing. This is why we study word graphs. Word graphs were already built for prepositions and adwords (including adjectives, adverbs and Chinese quantity words) in two other papers. In this paper, we propose the concept of the logic word and classify logic words into groups in terms of semantics and the way they are used in describing reasoning processes. A start is made with the building of the lexicon of logic words in terms of knowledge graphs
