Abstract

Random s-intersection graphs have recently received considerable attention in a wide range of application areas. In such a graph, each vertex is equipped with a set of items in some random manner, and any two vertices establish an undirected edge in between if and only if they have at least s common items. In particular, in a uniform random s-intersection graph, each vertex independently selects a fixed number of items uniformly at random from a common item pool, while in a binomial random s-intersection graph, each item in some item pool is independently attached to each vertex with the same probability. For binomial/uniform random s-intersection graphs, we establish threshold functions for perfect matching containment, Hamilton cycle containment, and k-robustness, where k-robustness is in the sense of Zhang and Sundaram [IEEE Conf. on Decision & Control '12]. We show that these threshold functions resemble those of classical Erdős-Rényi graphs, where each pair of vertices has an undirected edge independently with the same probability.
