Abstract

A path in an edge-colored graph G is called a rainbow path if no two edges of the path are colored the same. The minimum number of colors required to color the edges of G such that every pair of vertices are connected by at least k internally vertex-disjoint rainbow paths is called the rainbow k-connectivity of the graph G, denoted by rck(G). For the random graph G(n,p), He and Liang got a sharp threshold function for the property rck(G(n,p))≤ d. In this paper, we extend this result to the case of random bipartite graph G(m,n,p).
