Resilient pancyclicity of random and pseudorandom graphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: A graph G on n vertices is extit{pancyclic} if it contains cycles of length t for all 3leqtleqn. In this paper we prove that for any fixed epsilon>0, the random graph G(n,p) with p(n)ggn−1/2 asymptotically almost surely has the following resilience property. If H is a subgraph of G with maximum degree at most (1/2−epsilon)np then G−H is pancyclic. In fact, we prove a more general result which says that if pggn−1+1/(l−1) for some integer lgeq3 then for any epsilon>0, asymptotically almost surely every subgraph of G(n,p) with minimum degree greater than (1/2+epsilon)np contains cycles of length t for all lleqtleqn. These results are tight in two ways. First, the condition on p essentially cannot be relaxed. Second, it is impossible to improve the constant 1/2 in the assumption for the minimum degree. We also prove corresponding results for pseudo-random graphs.
