Large Bounded Degree Trees in Expanding Graphs

Abstract: A remarkable result of Friedman and Pippenger gives a sufficient condition on the expansion properties of a graph to contain all small trees with bounded maximum degree. Haxell showed that under slightly stronger assumptions on the expansion rate, their technique allows one to find arbitrarily large trees with bounded maximum degree. Using a slightly weaker version of Haxell's result we prove that a certain family of expanding graphs, which includes very sparse random graphs and regular graphs with large enoug… Show more

“…To extend T 1 to the almost spanning tree T ′ , we will use the following corollary of a tree embedding result of Haxell (this is her Theorem 1 with ℓ = 1 and each d i = Δ). We note that it was first observed by Balogh, Csaba, Pei, and Samotij that this is applicable in sparse random graphs. For a graph G and vertex set X ⊆ V ( G ), we let NGfalse(Xfalse):=xXNGfalse(xfalse).…”

“…For almost spanning trees it was shown by Alon, Krivelevich and Sudakov that, for some constant C = C ( ε ,Δ), the random graph G ( n , C / n ) alone a.a.s. contains any tree with at most (1 − ε ) n vertices and maximum degree at most Δ, where the bounds on C = C ( ε ,Δ) have subsequently been improved . Since the random graph G ( n , C / n ) a.a.s.…”

“…Theorem 1 (contagious sets in spectral expanders) follows from a proof similar to that of Theorem 2, using a result of [11] that shows that every vertex of an (n, d, λ)-graph is a root of a sufficiently large tree (the minimal degree of a nonleaf node in the tree degree gets smaller when λ approaches d from below, hence our bounds deteriorate as λ grows). The resulting algorithm is random-parallel rather than random-sequential because there is no need to use Corollary 12 -we can use Lemma 10 instead.…”

“…Indeed, Alon, Krivelevich, and Sudakov [AKS07] proved that G n, C n (for a suitable C = C(ε, ∆)) a.a.s. contains all trees of order (1 − ε)n with maximum degree at most ∆ (the constant C was later improved in [BCPS10]).…”
