A short proof of the Erd\H os--Sós Conjecture

Oliver Riordan, Alex Scott

The Erd\H os--Sós Conjecture was recently proved by GPT-6 Astra, using a very ingenious and surprising argument. In this note, we present a simplified version of this argument in a…

Counting subgraphs in bounded-size Achlioptas processes

Mihyun Kang, Oliver Riordan

Achlioptas processes such as the Bohman--Frieze process are much harder to analyse than the classical Erdős--Rényi process, due to the dependence between edges added at different s…

Random cliques in random graphs revisited

Robert Morris, Oliver Riordan

We study the distribution of the set of copies of some given graph in the random graph , focusing on the case when . Our main results capture the 'leading term…

How does the chromatic number of a random graph vary?

Annika Heckel, Oliver Riordan

How does the chromatic number of a graph chosen uniformly at random from all graphs on vertices behave? This quantity is a random variable, so one can ask (i) for upper and low…

Topological Phase Transitions in Spatial Networks

Paul Balister, Chaoming Song, Oliver Riordan +2

Most social, technological and biological networks are embedded in a finite dimensional space, and the distance between two nodes influences the likelihood that they link to each o…
