Title
Sharp thresholds for Hamiltonicity in random intersection graphs
Abstract
Random Intersection Graphs, G"n","m","p, is a class of random graphs introduced in Karonski (1999) [7] where each of the n vertices chooses independently a random subset of a universal set of m elements. Each element of the universal sets is chosen independently by some vertex with probability p. Two vertices are joined by an edge iff their chosen element sets intersect. Given n, m so that m=@?n^@a@?, for any real @a different than one, we establish here, for the first time, a sharp threshold for the graph property ''Contains a Hamilton cycle''. Our proof involves new, nontrivial, coupling techniques that allow us to circumvent the edge dependencies in the random intersection graph model.
