On the degree sequence of an evolving random graph process and its critical phenomenon. (English) Zbl 1228.05123

Summary: We focus on the problem of the degree sequence for a random graph process with edge deletion. We prove that, while a specific parameter varies, the limit degree distribution of the model exhibits critical phenomenon.
