Subcritical percolation and network archaeology on random recursive tree substrate networks

Shankar Bhamidi, Akshay Sakanaveeti

We study a network-archaeology problem for a dynamic graph whose latent substrate is a random recursive tree and whose observed topology is enriched by an independent homogeneous E…

Network evolution with self-reinforcement

Shankar Bhamidi, Remco van der Hofstad, Frank den Hollander +1

We study a new class of preferential attachment trees with \emph{self-reinforcement}. At each time, each vertex is assigned a weight equal to the cumulative sum over past times of…

The stochastic block model has the overlap graph property for modularity

Shankar Bhamidi, David Gamarnik, Remco van der Hofstad +4

The overlap gap property (OGP) is a statement about the geometry of near-optimal solutions. Exhibiting OGP implies failure of a class of local algorithms; and has been observed to…

Non-equilibrium coagulation processes and subcritical percolation on evolving networks

Sayan Banerjee, Shankar Bhamidi, Remco van der Hofstad +1

We investigate percolation on growing networks where the evolution of connected components resembles a non-equilibrium version of the multiplicative coalescent. The supercritical $…

Evolution of recursive trees with limited memory

Omer Angel, Shankar Bhamidi, Serte Donderwinkel +2

Motivated by questions in social networks, distributed computing and probabilistic combinatorics, the last few years have seen increasing interest in network evolution models where…

Finding a dense submatrix of a random matrix. Sharp bounds for online algorithms

Shankar Bhamidi, David Gamarnik, Shuyang Gong

We consider the problem of finding a dense submatrix of a matrix with i.i.d. Gaussian entries, where density is measured by average value. This problem arose from practical applica…
