Consider the standard network reliability model in which each edge of a given (n, m)-graph G is deleted, independently of all others, with probability q = 1– p (0 <p < 1). The pair-connectivity random variable X is defined to be the number of connected pairs of vertices that remain in G. The mean of X has been proposed as a measure of reliability for failure-prone communications networks in which the edge deletions correspond to failures of the communications links. We consider deviations from the mean, the law of large numbers, and the central limit theorem for X as n → ∞. Some explicit results are obtained when G is a tree using martingale difference sequences. Stars and paths are treated in detail.

Abstract We present a law of large numbers and a central limit theorem for the time to absorption of Λ-coalescents with dust started from n blocks, as n→∞. The proofs rely on an approximation of the logarithm of the block-counting process by means of a drifted subordinator.
