Abstract

dc:description

We consider a random geometric graph, G(n, r ), constructed by placing points randomly in a square S n of area n according to a Poisson process of intensity 1, and adding an edge joining any pair of points at most distance r=r(n) apart according to the ℓinfinity -metric. We show that w.h.p. this random geometric graph contains a Hamiltonian cycle if it is 2-connected.
