We consider the problem of finding a maximum independent set in a random graph. The random graph G, which contains n vertices, is modelled as follows. Every edge is included inde...
Partial Cover problems are optimization versions of fundamental and well studied problems like Vertex Cover and Dominating Set. Here one is interested in covering (or dominating) ...

We consider the problem of generating a random q-colouring of a graph G = (V, E). We consider the simple Glauber Dynamics chain. We show that if for all v V the average degree of...
If m 2 is constant and 0 r log log n for a small positive constant , then whp a random walk with look-ahead r on a scale-free graph G = G(m, n) has cover time CG(r) (2/(mr-1(...
