Abstract

For a fixed graph F, the minimum number of edges in an edge-maximal F-free subgraph of G is called the F-saturation number. The asymptotics of the F-saturation number of the Erdös–Rényi random graph G(n, p) for constant p∈ (0, 1 ) was established for any complete graph and any star graph. We obtain the asymptotics of the Cm -saturation number of G(n, p) for m⩾ 5. Also we prove non-trivial linear (in n) lower bounds and upper bounds for the C4 -saturation number of G(n, p) for some fixed values of p.
