Abstract

Using a probabilistic method, we prove that d(d+1)d(d+1)-connected graphs are rigid in Rd\mathbb{R}^d, a conjecture of Lov\'asz and Yemini. Then, using recent results on weakly globally linked pairs, we modify our argument to prove that d(d+1)d(d+1)-connected graphs are globally rigid, too, a conjecture of Connelly, Jord\'an and Whiteley. The constant d(d+1)d(d+1) is best possible.
