Graph limits and random graphs


Abstract 
Built on decades of deep research in ergodic theory, Szemerèdi's regularity 
theory and statistical physics, a new subject is emerging whose goal is to 
study convergence and limits of various structures. 
The main idea is to regard very large structures in combinatorics and algebra 
as approximations of infinite analytic objects. This viewpoint brings new tools 
from analysis and topology into these subjects. The success of this branch of 
mathematics has already been demonstrated through numerous applications 
in computer science, extremal combinatorics, probability theory and group 
theory. We review this subject with a special emphasis on the limit theory of 
graphs.
