Geometry of the vacant set left by random walk on random graphs, Wright's constants, and critical random graphs with prescribed degrees
Abstract
We provide an explicit algorithm for sampling a uniform simple connected random graph with a given degree sequence. By products of this central result include: (1) continuum scaling limits of uniform simple connected graphs with given degree sequence and asymptotics for the number of simple connected graphs with given degree sequence under some regularity conditions, and (2) scaling limits for the metric space structure of the maximal components in the critical regime of both the configuration model and the uniform simple random graph model with prescribed degree sequence under finite third moment assumption on the degree sequence. As a substantive application we answer a question raised by Černý and Teixeira study by obtaining the metric space scaling limit of maximal components in the vacant set left by random walks on random regular graphs.
