Edge Flows in the Complete Random-Lengths Network

Probability 2007-08-06 v1

Abstract

Consider the complete n-vertex graph whose edge-lengths are independent exponentially distributed random variables. Simultaneously for each pair of vertices, put a constant flow between them along the shortest path. Each edge gets some random total flow. In the nn \to \infty limit we find explicitly the empirical distribution of these edge-flows, suitably normalized.
