We consider the ensemble of adjacency matrices of Erd{\H o}s-R\'enyi random graphs, i.e.\ graphs on $N$ vertices where every edge is chosen independently and with probability $p \equiv p(N)$. We rescale the matrix so that its bulk eigenvalues are of order one. Under the assumption $p N \gg N^{2/3}$, we prove the universality of eigenvalue distributions both in the bulk and at the edge of the spectrum. More precisely, we prove (1) that the eigenvalue spacing of the Erd{\H o}s-R\'enyi graph in the bulk of the spectrum has the same distribution as that of the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble; and (2) that the second largest eigenvalue of the Erd{\H o}s-R\'enyi graph has the same distribution as the largest eigenvalue of the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble. As an application of our method, we prove the bulk universality of generalized Wigner matrices under the assumption that the matrix entries have at least $4 + \epsilon$ moments.

Consider $N\times N$ Hermitian or symmetric random matrices $H$ where the distribution of the $(i,j)$ matrix element is given by a probability measure $\nu_{ij}$ with a subexponential decay. Let $\sigma_{ij}^2$ be the variance for the probability measure $\nu_{ij}$ with the normalization property that $\sum_{i} \sigma^2_{ij} = 1$ for all $j$. Under essentially the only condition that $c\le N \sigma_{ij}^2 \le c^{-1}$ for some constant $c>0$, we prove that, in the limit $N \to \infty$, the eigenvalue spacing statistics of $H$ in the bulk of the spectrum coincide with those of the Gaussian unitary or orthogonal ensemble (GUE or GOE). We also show that for band matrices with bandwidth $M$ the local semicircle law holds to the energy scale $M^{-1}$.

Abstract We investigate a system of N Brownian particles with the Coulomb interaction in any dimension \(d\ge 2\), and we assume that the initial data are independent and identically distributed with a common density \(\rho _0\) satisfying \(\int _{\mathbb {R}^{d}}\rho _0\ln \rho _0\,\hbox {d}x<\infty \) and \(\rho _0\in L^{\frac{2d}{d+2}} (\mathbb {R}^{d}) \cap L^1(\mathbb {R}^{d}, (1+|x|^2)\,\hbox {d}x)\). We prove that there exists a unique global strong solution for this interacting partsicle system and there is no collision among particles almost surely. For \(d=2\), we rigorously prove the propagation of chaos for this particle system globally in time without any cutoff in the following sense. When \(N\rightarrow \infty \), the empirical measure of the particle system converges in law to a probability measure and this measure possesses a density which is the unique weak solution to the mean-field Poisson–Nernst–Planck equation of single component.

We study inhomogeneous random graphs in the subcritical case. Among other results, we derive an exact formula for the size of the largest connected component scaled by log$n$, with$n$being the size of the graph. This generalizes a result for the “rank-1 case”. We also investigate branching processes associated with these graphs. In particular, we discover that the same well-known equation for the survival probability, whose positive solution determines the asymptotics of the size of the largest component in the supercritical case, also plays a crucial role in the subcritical case. However, now it is the$negative$solutions that come into play. We disclose their relationship to the distribution of the progeny of the branching process.
