Abstract

Let G be a finite graph with minimum degree r. Form a random subgraph Gp of G by taking each edge of G into Gp independently and with probability p. We prove that for any constant Î > 0, if p=\frac{1+\epsilon}{r} then Gp is non-planar with probability approaching 1 as r grows. This generalizes classical results on planarity of binomial random graphs.
