Abstract We study concentration properties of vertex degrees of n-dimensional Erd˝os–Rényi random graphs with edge probability ρ/n by means of high moments of these random variables in the limit when n and ρ tend to infinity. These moments are asymptotically close to one-variable Bell polynomials Bk (ρ), k ∈ N, that represent moments of the Poisson probability distribution P(ρ). We study asymptotic behavior of the Bell polynomials and modified Bell polynomials for large values of k and ρ with the help of the local limit theorem for auxiliary random variables. Using the results obtained, we get upper bounds for the deviation probabilities of the normalized maximal vertex degree of the Erd˝os–Rényi random graphs in the limit n, ρ → ∞ such that the ratio ρ/ log n remains finite or infinitely increases.

1 Introduction This paper is motivated by studies of the spectral properties of random matrices associated with random graphs of the Erd˝os–Rényi type [6]. In these graphs, the edges can be represented by a family of independent Bernoulli random variables, and we consider the case when the average value of these variables is given by ρ/n, where n (ρ) is the number of vertices in the graph n . (ρ) More precisely, we assume that the edges of n are non-oriented and there are (ρ) (ρ) no loops in n . In this case, the random graph n is associated with its adjacency (ρ) matrix that is an n-dimensional real symmetric matrix An , whose elements above the
