Title
The Genus of the Erdös-Rényi Random Graph and the Fragile Genus Property.
Abstract
investigate the genus $g(n,m)$ of the ErdH{o}s-Ru0027enyi random graph $G(n,m)$, providing a thorough description of how this relates to the function $m=m(n)$, and finding that there is different behaviour depending on which `regionu0027 $m$ falls into. Results already exist for $m$ at most $frac{n}{2} + O(n^{2/3})$ and $m$ at least $omega left( n^{1+frac{1}{j}} right)$ for $j mathbb{N}$, and so we focus on the intermediate cases. establish that $g(n,m) = (1+o(1)) frac{m}{2}$ whp (with high probability) when $n ll m = n^{1+o(1)}$, that $g(n,m) = (1+o(1)) mu (lambda) m$ whp for a given function $mu (lambda)$ when $m sim lambda n$ for $lambda u003e frac{1}{2}$, and that $g(n,m) = (1+o(1)) frac{8s^{3}}{3n^{2}}$ whp when $m = frac{n}{2} + s$ for $n^{2/3} ll s ll n$. We then also show that the genus of a fixed graph can increase dramatically if a small number of random edges are added. Given any connected graph with bounded maximum degree, we find that the addition of $epsilon n$ edges will whp result in a graph with genus $Omega (n)$, even when $epsilon$ is an arbitrarily small constant! thus call this the `fragile genusu0027 property.
