Abstract

We study the number of isolated nodes in a soft random geometric graph whose vertices constitute a Poisson process on the torus of length L (the line segment [0,L] with periodic boundary conditions), and where an edge is present between two nodes with a probability which depends on the distance between them. Edges between distinct pairs of nodes are mutually independent. In a suitable scaling regime, we show that the number of isolated nodes converges in total variation to a Poisson random variable. The result implies an upper bound on the probability that the random graph is connected.
