چکیده

We study the problem of creating a copy of some fixed graph H in the Achlioptas process on n vertices with parameter r, where r = r(n) is a growing function of n. We prove general upper and lower bounds on the threshold of this problem, and derive exact threshold functions for the case where H is a tree, a cycle, or the complete graph on four vertices.

Avoiding small subgraphs in Achlioptas processes

For a fixed integer r, consider the following random process. At each round, one is presentedwith r random edges from the edge set of the complete graph on n vertices, and is asked to chooseone of them. The selected edges are collected into a graph, which thus grows at the rate of oneedge per round. This is a natural generalization of what is known in the literature as an Achlio...

Explosive percolation: a numerical analysis.

Percolation is one of the most studied processes in statistical physics. A recent paper by Achlioptas [Science 323, 1453 (2009)] showed that the percolation transition, which is usually continuous, becomes discontinuous ("explosive") if links are added to the system according to special cooperative rules (Achlioptas processes). In this paper, we present a detailed numerical analysis of Achliopt...

Random k-SAT and the Power of Two Choices

We study an Achlioptas-process version of the random k-SAT process: a bounded number of k-clauses are drawn uniformly at random at each step, and exactly one added to the growing formula according to a particular rule. We prove the existence of a rule that shifts the satisfiability threshold. This extends a well-studied area of probabilistic combinatorics (Achlioptas processes) to random CSP’s....

A new upper bound for Achlioptas processes

We consider here on-line algorithms for Achlioptas processes. Given a initially empty graph G on n vertices, a random process that at each step selects independently and uniformly at random two edges from the set of non-edges is launched. We must choose one of the two edges and add it to the graph while discarding the other. The goal is to avoid the appearance of a connected component spanning ...
