On the one dimensional Poisson random geometric graph

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Given a Poisson process on a bounded interval, its random geometric graph is the graph whose vertices are the points of the Poisson process and edges exist between two points if and only if their distance is less than a fixed given threshold. We compute explicitly the distribution of the number of connected components of this graph. The proof relies on inverting some Laplace transforms.


A graph with vertices given by the points of a linear Poisson process is defined by edges between points that are closer than a fixed given threshold. Thus, the graph is a set of paths or clusters. A queueing representation of this setup is used to investigate its number of clusters and other properties. A Poisson process on a circle is also investigated.
