The main result describes a threshold for the random hypergraph to be connected with high probability, and shows that the average hyperedge size suffices to characterise connectivity under mild regularity assumptions. Especially, the connectivity threshold is in most cases insensitive to the shape and higher moments of the hyperedge size distribution. Similar results are also provided for related random intersection graph models.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-07-11T11:50:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C65", "60C05", "60B10", "91D30", "62G35" ], "keywords": [ "connectivity", "limiting hyperedge size distributions", "article discusses random hypergraphs", "related random intersection graph models", "mild regularity assumptions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
