A New Lower Bound on the Spectral Radius of Graphs with Prescribed Average Degree

Sonny Ben-Shimon, Idan Eisner, Shlomo Hoory

This work establishes an improved lower bound for the spectral radius of a graph given its average degree. The new bound follows from an exact solution of the fractional relaxation…

On the resilience of Hamiltonicity and optimal packing of Hamilton cycles in random graphs

Sonny Ben-Shimon, Michael Krivelevich, Benny Sudakov

Let $\bk=(k_1,...,k_n)$ be a sequence of integers. For an increasing monotone graph property $\mP$ we say that a base graph is \emph{$\bk$-resilient} with respect t…

Hitting time results for Maker-Breaker games

Sonny Ben-Shimon, Asaf Ferber, Dan Hefetz +1

We study Maker-Breaker games played on the edge set of a random graph. Specifically, we consider the random graph process and analyze the first time in a typical random graph proce…

Local resilience and Hamiltonicity Maker-Breaker games in random-regular graphs

Sonny Ben-Shimon, Michael Krivelevich, Benny Sudakov

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 $H\subseteq…

A note on regular Ramsey graphs

Noga Alon, Sonny Ben-Shimon, Michael Krivelevich

We prove that there is an absolute constant so that for every natural there exists a triangle-free \emph{regular} graph with no independent set of size at least $C\sqrt{n…

Message passing for the coloring problem: Gallager meets Alon and Kahale

Sonny Ben-Shimon, Dan Vilenchik

Message passing algorithms are popular in many combinatorial optimization problems. For example, experimental results show that {\em survey propagation} (a certain message passing…
