# A model of random merging of segments

A model of random merging of segments We consider a growing set U of segments with integer endpoints on a line. For every pair of adjacent segments, their union is added to U with probability q. At the beginning, U contains all segments of length from 1 to m. Let h n be the probability that the segment [a, a+n] will be created; the critical value q c (m) is defined as $\sup \{ q|\mathop {\lim }\limits_{n \to \infty } h_n = 0\}$ . Lower and upper bounds for q c (m) are obtained. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Problems of Information Transmission Springer Journals
