The component structure of dense random subgraphs of the hypercube

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Given pin(0,1), we let Qp=Qpd be the random subgraph of the d-dimensional hypercube Qd where edges are present independently with probability p. It is well known that, as dightarrowinfty, if p>frac12 then with high probability Qp is connected; and if p<frac12 then with high probability Qp consists of one giant component together with many smaller components which form the `fragment'. Here we fix pin(0,frac12), and investigate the fragment, and how it sits inside the hypercube. In particular we give asymptotic estimates for the mean numbers of components in the fragment of each size, and describe their asymptotic distributions and indeed their joint distribution, much extending earlier work of Weber.
