Abstract

Let 0 < p < 1 be fixed and denote by G a random graph with point set , the set of natural numbers, such that each edge occurs with probability p, independently of all other edges. In other words the random variables eij, 1 ≤ i < j, defined byare independent r.v.'s with P(eij = 1) = p, P(eij = 0) = 1 − p. Denote by Gn the subgraph of G spanned by the points 1, 2, …, n. These random graphs G, Gn will be investigated throughout the note. As in (1), denote by Kr a complete graph with r points and denote by kr(H) the number of Kr's in a graph H. A maximal complete subgraph is called a clique. In (1) one of us estimated the minimum of kr(H) provided H has n points and m edges. In this note we shall look at the random variablesthe number of Kr's in Gn, andthe maximal size of a clique in Gn.
