On the cycle space of a random graph

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Write mathcalC(G) for the cycle space of a graph G, mathcalCkappa(G) for the subspace of mathcalC(G) spanned by the copies of the kappa-cycle Ckappa in G, mathcalTkappa for the class of graphs satisfying mathcalCkappa(G)=mathcalC(G), and mathcalQkappa for the class of graphs each of whose edges lies in a Ckappa. We prove that for every odd kappageq3 and G=Gn,p, [max_p , Pr(G in mathcal{Q}_kappa setminus mathcal{T}_kappa) ightarrow 0;] so the Ckappa's of a random graph span its cycle space as soon as they cover its edges. For kappa=3 this was shown by DeMarco, Hamm and Kahn (2013).
