We show that asymptotic equivalence, in a strong form, holds between two random graph models with slightly diering edge probabilities under substantially weaker conditions than what might naively be expected. One application is a simple proof of a recent result by van den Esker, van der Hofstad and Hooghiemstra on the equivalence between graph distances for some random graph models. (i) The sequence (Pn)n is asymptotically equivalent to (Qn)n, denoted by (Pn)n = (Qn)n, if for every sequence of measurable sets An (i.e., An2An), we have Pn(An) Qn(An)! 0. (ii) The sequence (Pn)n is contiguous with respect to (Qn)n, denoted by (Pn)nC (Qn)n, if for every sequence of measurable sets An such that Qn(An)! 0, we also have Pn(An)! 0. We use the same terminology and notations for sequences of random vari- ables Xn and Yn with values in the same space Xn, meaning that these properties hold for their distributions L(Xn) and L(Yn). For example, (Xn)n = (Yn)n means that P(Xn2 An) P(Yn2 An)! 0 for every sequence (An)n. We will also use the simpler notations Xn = Yn and XnC Yn, etc. Note that asymptotic equivalence is a symmetric relation while contiguity is not; we say that (Pn)n and (Qn)n are (mutually) contiguous, (Pn)nCB (Qn)n, if both (Pn)nC (Qn)n and (Qn)nC (Pn)n, i.e., if Pn(An)! 0 ()
