We consider the Erdos-Renyi random graph G(n,p) inside the critical window, where p = 1/n + lambda * n^{-4/3} for some lambda in R. We proved in a previous paper (arXiv:0903.4730) that considering the connected components of G(n,p) as a sequence of metric spaces with the graph distance rescaled by n^{-1/3} and letting n go to infinity yields a non-trivial sequence of limit metric spaces C = (C_1, C_2, ...). These limit metric spaces can be constructed from certain random real trees with vertex-identifications. For a single such metric space, we give here two equivalent constructions, both of which are in terms of more standard probabilistic objects. The first is a global construction using Dirichlet random variables and Aldous Brownian continuum random tree. The second is a recursive construction from an inhomogeneous Poisson point process on R_+. These constructions allow us to characterize the distributions of the masses and lengths in the constituent parts of a limit component when it is decomposed according to its cycle structure. In particular, this strengthens results of Luczak, Pittel and Wierman by providing precise distributional convergence for the lengths of paths between kernel vertices and the length of a shortest cycle, within any fixed limit component.

We consider the contact process on the model of hyperbolic random graph, in the regime when the degree distribution obeys a power law with exponent $chi in(1,2)$ (so that the degree distribution has finite mean and infinite second moment). We show th at the probability of non-extinction as the rate of infection goes to zero decays as a power law with an exponent that only depends on $chi$ and which is the same as in the configuration model, suggesting some universality of this critical exponent. We also consider fini
For each $n ge 1$, let $mathrm{d}^n=(d^{n}(i),1 le i le n)$ be a sequence of positive integers with even sum $sum_{i=1}^n d^n(i) ge 2n$. Let $(G_n,T_n,Gamma_n)$ be uniformly distributed over the set of simple graphs $G_n$ with degree sequence $mathrm {d}^n$, endowed with a spanning tree $T_n$ and rooted along an oriented edge $Gamma_n$ of $G_n$ which is not an edge of $T_n$. Under a finite variance assumption on degrees in $G_n$, we show that, after rescaling, $T_n$ converges in distribution to the Brownian continuum random tree as $n to infty$. Our main tool is a new version of Pitmans additive coalescent (https://doi.org/10.1006/jcta.1998.2919), which can be used to build both random trees with a fixed degree sequence, and random tree-weighted graphs with a fixed degree sequence. As an input to the proof, we also derive a Poisson approximation theorem for the number of loops and multiple edges in the superposition of a fixed graph and a random graph with a given degree sequence sampled according to the configuration model; we find this to be of independent interest.
We study some percolation problems on the complete graph over $mathbf N$. In particular, we give sharp sufficient conditions for the existence of (finite or infinite) cliques and paths in a random subgraph. No specific assumption on the probability, such as independency, is made. The main tools are a topological version of Ramsey theory, exchangeability theory and elementary ergodic theory.
A bootstrap percolation process on a graph G is an infection process which evolves in rounds. Initially, there is a subset of infected nodes and in each subsequent round every uninfected node which has at least r infected neighbours becomes infected and remains so forever. The parameter r > 1 is fixed. We consider this process in the case where the underlying graph is an inhomogeneous random graph whose kernel is of rank 1. Assuming that initially every vertex is infected independently with probability p > 0, we provide a law of large numbers for the number of vertices that will have been infected by the end of the process. We also focus on a special case of such random graphs which exhibit a power-law degree distribution with exponent in (2,3). The first two authors have shown the existence of a critical function a_c(n) such that a_c(n)=o(n) with the following property. Let n be the number of vertices of the underlying random graph and let a(n) be the number of the vertices that are initially infected. Assume that a set of a(n) vertices is chosen randomly and becomes externally infected. If a(n) << a_c(n), then the process does not evolve at all, with high probability as n grows, whereas if a(n)>> a_c(n), then with high probability the final set of infected vertices is linear. Using the techniques of the previous theorem, we give the precise asymptotic fraction of vertices which will be eventually infected when a(n) >> a_c (n) but a(n) = o(n). Note that this corresponds to the case where p approaches 0.
In this paper we study the impact of random exponential edge weights on the distances in a random graph and, in particular, on its diameter. Our main result consists of a precise asymptotic expression for the maximal weight of the shortest weight pat hs between all vertices (the weighted diameter) of sparse random graphs, when the edge weights are i.i.d. exponential random variables.
