LETTER TO THE EDITOR

The distribution of unicyclic components in a random graph is obtained analytically. The number of unicyclic components of a given size approaches a self-similar form in the vicinity of the gelation transition. At the gelation point, this distribution decays algebraically, Uk sime (4k)−1 for k Gt 1. As a result, the total number of unicyclic components grows logarithmically with the system size.
