Expansion properties of a random regular graph after random vertex deletions
We investigate the following vertex percolation process. Starting with a random regular graph of constant degree, delete each vertex independently with probability p, where p = n- and = (n) is bounded away from 0. We show that a.a.s. the resulting graph has a connected component of size n - o(n) which is an expander, and all other components are trees of bounded size. Sharper results are obtained with extra conditions on . These results have an application to the cost of repairing a certain peer-to-peer network after random failures of nodes.
