Let F be a distribution in R n 1 2 with a coordinate for every pair ij with 1 i j n. Then Gp p is the distribution on graphs with n vertices obtained by picking a random point X from F and defining a graph on n vertices whose edges are pairs ij for which Xj p. The standard Erdos-Renyi model is the special case when F is uniform on the 0-1 unit cube. We examine basic properties such as the connectivity threshold for quite general distributions. We also consider cases where the Xj are the edge weights in some random instance of a combinatorial optimization problem. By choosing suitable distributions we can capture random graphs with interesting properties such as triangle-free random graphs and weighted random graphs with bounded total weight. 1 Introduction Probabilistic combinatorics is today a thriving field bridging the classical area of probability with modern developments in combinatorics. The theory of random graphs pioneered Research supported in part by NSF award CCF-0502793. 1 Supported in part by NSF award CCF-0721503. THE ELECTRONIC JOURNAL OF COMBINATORICS 17 2010 R108 1 by Erdos-Renyi 7 has given us numerous insights surprises and techniques and has been used to count to establish structural properties and to analyze algorithms. In the standard unweighted model Gn p each pair of vertices ij of an n-vertex graph is independently declared to be an edge with probability p. Equivalently one picks a random number Xij for each ij in .
