Near critical asymptotics in the Frozen Erdős-Rényi

Abstract

We consider a variant of the classical Erdős-Rényi random graph, where components with surplus are slowed down to prevent the apparition of complex components. The sizes of the components of this process undergo a similar phase transition to that of the classical model, and in the critical window the scaling limit of the sizes of the components is a "frozen" version of Aldous' multiplicative coalescent [2]. The aim of this article is to describe the long time asymptotics in the critical window for the total number of vertices which belong to a component with surplus.
