Abstract: Developing an idea of M. Gromov, we study the intersection formula for random subsets with density. The extit{density} of a subset A in a finite set E is defined by densA:=log|E|(|A|). The aim of this article is to give a precise meaning of Gromov's extit{intersection formula}: "Random subsets" A and B of a finite set E satisfy dens(AcapB)=densA+densB1. As an application, we exhibit a phase transition phenomenon for random presentations of groups at density lambda/2 for any 0<lambda<1, characterizing the C(lambda)-small cancellation condition. We also improve an important result of random groups by G. Arzhantseva and A. Ol'shanskii from density 0 to density 0leqd<frac1120m2ln(2m).
