Long and short paths in uniform random recursive dags
In a uniform random recursive k-dag, there is a root, 0, and each node in
turn, from 1 to n, chooses k uniform random parents from among the nodes of
smaller index. If S_n is the shortest path distance from node n to the root,
then we determine the constant \sigma such that S_n/log(n) tends to \sigma in
probability as n tends to infinity. We also show that max_{1 \le i \le n}
S_i/log(n) tends to \sigma in probability.Comment: 16 page
Giant components for two expanding graph processes
We discuss the emergence of giant components in two random graph models (one directed, one undirected). Our study of these models was motivated by an interest in finding a random model of the Internet
