Title
Random Minimum Length Spanning Trees in Regular Graphs
Abstract
Consider a connected r-regular n-vertex graph G with random independent edgelengths, each uniformly distributed on (0; 1). Let mst(G) be the expected length ofa minimum spanning tree. We show that mst(G) can be estimated quite accuratelyunder two distinct circumstances. Firstly, if r is large and G has a modest edgeexpansion property then mst(G) ?nri(3), where i(3) =P 1j=1 j\Gamma3? 1:202. Secondly,if G has large girth then there exists an explicitly defined constant c r such...
