Abstract

Motivated by the observation that the sparse tree‐like subgraphs in a small world graph have large diameter, we analyze random spanning trees in a given host graph. We show that the diameter of a random spanning tree of a given host graph G is between and with high probability., where c and cβ€² depend on the spectral gap of G and the ratio of the moments of the degree sequence. For the special case of regular graphs, this result improves the previous lower bound by Aldous by a factor of log__n__. Copyright Β© 2011 John Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 69:

The distance between a pair of vertices u, u in a graph G is the length of a shortest path joining u and u. The diameter diam(G) of G is the maximum distance between all pairs of vertices in G. A spanning tree Tof G is diameter preserving if diam(T) = diam(G). In this note, we characterize graphs th

Let T n denote the set of unrooted unlabeled trees of size n and let k β‰₯ 1 be given. By assuming that every tree of T n is equally likely, it is shown that the limiting distribution of the number of nodes of degree k is normal with mean value ∼ Β΅ k n and variance ∼ Οƒ 2 k n with positive constants Β΅

This note can be treated a s a supplement to a paper written by Bollobas which was devoted to the vertices of a given degree in a random graph. We determine some values of the edge probability p for which the number of vertices of a given degree of a random graph G E ?An, p) asymptotically has a nor
