Abstract

We derive an asymptotic formula for the number of labeled connected series-parallel \( k \)-cyclic graphs of a large order with a fixed number \( k \). With a uniform probability distribution, we find the probability that a random labeled connected \( n \)-vertex \( k \)-cyclic graph with a fixed \( k \) as \( n\to \infty \) is a series-parallel graph. In addition, we determine the probability that, with a uniform probability distribution, a random labeled connected series-parallel \( n \)-vertex \( k \)-cyclic graph with a fixed \( k \) as \( n\to \infty \) is a cactus.
