Embedding spanning trees in random graphs

Combinatorics 2010-08-19 v2

Abstract

We prove that if T is a tree on n vertices wih maximum degree D and the edge probability p(n) satisfies: np>c*max{D*logn,n^{\epsilon}} for some constant \epsilon>0, then with high probability the random graph G(n,p) contains a copy of T. The obtained bound on the edge probability is shown to be essentially tight for D=n^{\Theta(1)}.
