When are small subgraphs of a random graph normally distributed?

From MaRDI portal





Let G be a graph and let \(X_ n\) count copies of G in a random graph K(n,p). The random variable \((X_ n-E(X_ n))/\sqrt{Var(X_ n)}\) is asymptotically normally distributed if and only if \(np^ m\to \infty\) and \(n^ 2(1-p)\to \infty\), where \(m=\max \{e(H)/| H| :\) \(H\subset G\}.\) In addition to, and in connection with this main result we investigate the formula for \(Var(X_ n)\) and the Poisson convergence of \(X_ n\).
