Near-minimal spanning trees : a scaling exponent in probability models

David J. AldousCharles BordenaveMarc Lelarge — 2008

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We study the relation between the minimal spanning tree (MST) on many random points and the “near-minimal” tree which is optimal subject to the constraint that a proportion of its edges must be different from those of the MST. Heuristics suggest that, regardless of details of the probability model, the ratio of lengths should scale as 1+( ). We prove this in the model of the lattice with random edge-lengths and in the euclidean model.
