Spectra of large diluted but bushy random graphs

We compute an asymptotic expansion in of the limit in of the empirical spectral measure of the adjacency matrix of an Erd?s‐Rényi random graph with vertices and parameter . We present two different methods, one of which is valid for the more general setting of locally tree‐like graphs. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Random Struct. Alg., 49, 160–184, 2016
