Finitely forcible graphons and permutons

We investigate when limits of graphs (graphons) and permutations (permutons) are uniquely determined by finitely many densities of their substructures, i.e., when they are finitely forcible. Every permuton can be associated with a graphon through the notion of permutation graphs. We find permutons that are finitely forcible but the associated graphons are not. We also show that all permutons that can be expressed as a finite combination of monotone permutons and quasirandom permutons are finitely forcible, which is the permuton counterpart of the result of Lovasz and Sos for graphons.

Avoider-Enforcer star games

In this paper, we study $(1 : b)$ Avoider-Enforcer games played on the edge set of the complete graph on $n$ vertices. For every constant $k\geq 3$ we analyse the $k$-star game, where Avoider tries to avoid claiming $k$ edges incident to the same vertex. We analyse both versions of Avoider-Enforcer games -- the strict and the monotone -- and for each provide explicit winning strategies for both players. We determine the order of magnitude of the threshold biases $f^{mon}_\mathcal{F}$, $f^-_\mathcal{F}$ and $f^+_\mathcal{F}$, where $\mathcal{F}$ is the hypergraph of the game.

Interval edge-colorings of K_{1,m,n}

In this note we prove that K_{1,m,n} is interval edge-colorable if and only if gcd(m+1,n+1)=1. It settles in the affirmative a conjecture of Petrosyan.

From directed path to linear order - the best choice problem for powers of directed path

We examine the evolution of the best choice algorithm and the probability of its success from a directed path to the linear order of the same cardinality through $k$th powers of a directed path, $1 \leq k < n$. The vertices of a $k$th power of a directed path of a known length $n$ are exposed one by one to a selector in some random order. At any time the selector can see the graph induced by the vertices that have already come. The selector's aim is to choose online the maximal vertex (i.e. the vertex with no outgoing edges). It is shown that the probability of success $p_n$ for the optimal algorithm for the $k$th power of a directed path satisfies $p_n = Θ(n^{-1/(k+1)})$. We also consider the case when the selector knows the distance in the underlying path between each two vertices that are joined by an edge in the induced graph. An optimal algorithm for this choice problem is presented. The exact probability of success when using this algorithm is given.
