On the tree-depth and tree-width in heterogeneous random graphs

: In this note, we investigate the tree-depth and tree-width in a heterogeneous random graph obtained by including each edge e ij ð i 6¼ j Þ of a complete graph K n over n vertices independently with probability p n ð e ij Þ . When the sequence of edge probabilities satisfies some density assumptions, we show both tree-depth and tree-width are of linear size with high probability. Moreover, we extend the method to random weighted graphs with non-identical edge weights and capture the conditions under which with high probability the weighted tree-depth is bounded by a constant.
