Abstract

The edge space E(G)\mathcal{E}(G) of a graph GG is the vector space F2E(G)\mathbb{F}_2^{E(G)} with members naturally identified with subgraphs of GG, and the HH-space is the subspace CH(G)\mathcal{C}_H(G) of E(G) \mathcal{E}(G) spanned by copies of the graph HH. We are interested in when the random graph G=Gn,pG = G_{n,p} is likely to satisfy CH(G)=WH(G),\mathcal{C}_H(G) = \mathcal{W}_H(G), where WH(G)\mathcal{W}_H(G) takes one of four natural values, depending on the value of CH(Kn)\mathcal{C}_H(K_n). We show that for strictly 22-balanced HH, w.h.p. the above equality holds whenever every edge of GG is in a copy of HH.
