Random Sampling of Labeled Tournaments

چکیده

This note extends a recent result of Kannan, Tetali and Vempala to completely solve, via a simple proof, the problem of random generation of a labeled tournament with a given score vector. The proof uses the method of path coupling applied to an appropriate Markov chain on the set of labeled tournaments with the same score vector. MRS: 65C05, 05C20.

Random Trees in Random Graphs

We show that a random labeled n-vertex graph almost surely contains isomorphic copies of almost all labeled n-vertex trees, in two senses. In the first sense, the probability of each edge occurring in the graph diminishes as n increases, and the set of trees referred to as "almost all" depends on the random graph. In the other sense, the probability of an edge occurring is fixed, and the releva...

Intersections of random hypergraphs and tournaments

Given two random hypergraphs, or two random tournaments of order n, how much (or little) can we make them overlap by placing them on the same vertex set? We give asymptotic answers to this question.

Bounds and constructions for n-e.c. tournaments

Few families of tournaments satisfying the n-e.c. adjacency property are known. We supply a new random construction for generating infinite families of vertex-transitive n-e.c. tournaments by considering circulant tournaments. Switching is used to generate new ne.c. tournaments of certain orders. With aid of a computer search, we demonstrate that there is a unique minimum order 3-e.c. tournamen...

t-Pancyclic Arcs in Tournaments

Let $T$ be a non-trivial tournament. An arc is emph{$t$-pancyclic} in $T$, if it is contained in a cycle of length $ell$ for every $tleq ell leq |V(T)|$. Let $p^t(T)$ denote the number of $t$-pancyclic arcs in $T$ and $h^t(T)$ the maximum number of $t$-pancyclic arcs contained in the same Hamiltonian cycle of $T$. Moon ({em J. Combin. Inform. System Sci.}, {bf 19} (1994), 207-214) showed that $...

Estimation of Fishing Tournament Mortality and Its Sampling Variance

—The mortality of fish captured in fishing tournaments has commonly been estimated incorrectly and, thus far, only one account has presented an estimate of the standard error or confidence interval for tournament-associated mortality. In this article we describe methods for estimating the initial, delayed, and total mortality of tournament-caught fish and provide formulae for estimating the sam...
