abstract

We show that for $d\ge d_0(\epsilon)$, with high probability, the random graph $G(n,d/n)$ contains an induced path of length $(3/2-\epsilon)\frac{n}{d}\log d$. This improves a result obtained independently by Luczak and Suen in the early 90s, and answers a question of Fernandez de la Vega. Along the way, we generalize a recent result of Cooley, Dragani\'c, Kang and Sudakov who studied the analogous problem for induced matchings.

    For p = n^{-(e-2)/(3e-2)+ε}, the maximum induced tree size in G(n,p) is concentrated at two adjacent values.
