Jacobs, Irwin Mark Connectivity in probabilistic graphs September 15, 1959. Issued also as a thesis, M.I.T. Dept. of Electrical Engineering, August 21, 1959.
In particular, he is deeply grateful to Professor Yuk-Wing Lee, who devotes so much thought and effort to aiding students in making the difficult transition from being absorbers of knowledge to becoming independent workers, and to Professor Edward Arthurs for encouraging him to enter the field of graph theory, and for his subsequent interest
