Abstract

Consider the problem of determining the maximal induced subgraph in a random dd-regular graph such that its components remain bounded as the size of the graph becomes arbitrarily large. We show, for asymptotically large dd, that any such induced subgraph has size density at most 2(logd)/d2(\log d)/d with high probability. A matching lower bound is known for independent sets. We also prove the analogous result for sparse Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graphs.
