Abstract
Random graph models and associated inference problems such as the stochastic block model play an eminent role in computer science, discrete mathematics and statistics. Based on non-rigorous arguments physicists predicted the existence of a generic phase transition that separates a "replica symmetric phase" where statistical inference is impossible from a phase where the detection of the "ground truth" is information-theoretically possible. In this paper we prove a contiguity result that shows that detectability is indeed impossible within the replica-symmetric phase for a broad class of models. In particular, this implies the detectability conjecture for the disassortative stochastic block model from [Decelle et al.: Phys Rev E 2011]. Additionally, we investigate key features of the replica symmetric phase such as the nature of point-to-set correlations (`reconstruction').

Local Convergence of Random Graph Colorings

Authors: Amin Coja-Oghlan, Charilaos Efthymiou, and Nor Jaafari

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 40, Approximation, Randomization, and Combinatorial Optimization. Algorithms and Techniques (APPROX/RANDOM 2015)


Abstract
Let G=G(n,m) be a random graph whose average degree d=2m/n is below the k-colorability threshold. If we sample a k-coloring Sigma of G uniformly at random, what can we say about the correlations between the colors assigned to vertices that are far apart? According to a prediction from statistical physics, for average degrees below the so-called condensation threshold d_c, the colors assigned to far away vertices are asymptotically independent [Krzakala et al: PNAS 2007]. We prove this conjecture for k exceeding a certain constant k_0. More generally, we determine the joint distribution of the k-colorings that Sigma induces locally on the bounded-depth neighborhoods of a fixed number of vertices.
