We study the random intersection graph $G_N$ constructed by these caps. We prove that for $p = \\frac{c}{N^{\\al}},\\:c >0$ and $\\al >2,$ the number of edges in graph $G_N$ follow the Poisson distribution. Also we derive the strong law results for the number of isolated vertices in $G_N$: for $p = \\frac{c}{N^{\\al}},\\:c >0$ for $\\al < 1,$ there is no isolated vertex in $G_N$ almost surely i.e., there are atleast $N/2$ edges in $G_N$ and for $\\al >3,$ every vertex in $G_N$ is isolated i.e., there is no edge in edge set $\\cE_N.$", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-09-06T07:30:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "random intersection graph", "strong law results", "unit sphere", "edge set", "poisson distribution" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0809.1143G" } } }
