A milestone in probability theory is the law of the iterated logarithm (LIL), proved by Khinchin and independently by Kolmogorov in the 1920s, which asserts that for iid random variables {ti}i=1∞ with mean 0 and variance 1 In this paper we prove that LIL holds for various functionals of random graphs and hypergraphs models. We first prove LIL for the number of copies of a fixed subgraph H. Two harder results concern the number of global objects: perfect matchings and Hamiltonian cycles. The main new ingredient in these results is a large deviation bound, which may be of independent interest. For random k‐uniform hypergraphs, we obtain the Central Limit Theorem and LIL for the number of Hamilton cycles.

The study of complex networks has been one of the most active fields in science in recent decades. Spectral properties of networks (or graphs that represent them) are of fundamental importance. Researchers have been investigating these properties for many years, and, based on numerical data, have raised a number of questions about the distribution of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors.In this paper, we give the solution to some of these questions. In particular, we determine the limiting distribution of (the bulk of) the spectrum as the size of the network grows to infinity and show that the leading eigenvectors are strongly localized.We focus on the preferential attachment graph, which is the most popular mathematical model for growing complex networks. Our analysis is, on the other hand, general and can be applied to other models.
