The authors consider Young diagrams or Ferrers graphs that are chosen uniformly at random from among all partitions of \(n\). They determine the expected shape and size of the \(r\)-core. In particular, when scaled by \(n^{1/2}\), the core size is asymptotically gamma-distributed with parameter \((r-1)/2\). For \(n\) chosen uniformly at random from 1 to \(N\) and the core diagram scaled both horizontally and vertically by \(N^{1/4}\), the boundary converges to a random convex polygonal curve with \(r-1\) straight line segments.
