Consequently, this can be seen as a continuum analogue of the breadth-first construction of a finite connected graph. In particular, this yields a breadth-first construction of the scaling limit of the critical Erd\\H{o}s-R\\'enyi random graph which answers a question posed in [2]. As a consequence of this breadth-first construction we obtain descriptions of the radii, the distance profiles, and the two point functions of these spaces in terms of functionals of tilted Brownian excursions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-08-12T21:38:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "breadth-first construction", "scaling limit", "random graph", "brownian continuum random tree", "tilted brownian continuum random" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 37, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
