Title
The Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension of a random graph
Abstract
In this paper we investigate a parameter defined for any graph, known as the Vapnik Chervonenkis dimension (VC dimension). For any vertex x of a graph G , the closed neighborhood N ( x ) of x is the set of all vertices of G adjacent to x , together with x . We say that a set D of vertices of G is shattered if every subset R of D can be realised as R = D ∩ N ( x ) for some vertex x of G . The VC dimension of G is defined to be the largest cardinality of a shattered set of vertices. Our main result gives, for each positive integer d , the exact threshold function for a random graph G ( n , p ) to have VC dimension d .
