Popis: Here we introduce a new model for random 2-SAT. It is well known that on the standard model there is a sharp phase transition; the probability of satisfiability quickly drops as the number of clauses exceeds the number of variables. The location of this phase transition suggests that there is a direct connection between the appearance of a giant in the corresponding $2n$-vertex graph and satisfiability. Here we show that the giant has nothing to do with satisfiability and that in fact the expected degree of a randomly chosen vertex is the important thing.
