We call a graph \(G\) \( (p, \alpha ) \) jumbled if, for every induced subgraph \( H \) of \(G\) , \( | e(H)-p \binom {|H|} 2 | \leq \alpha |H| \) holds; here \(p\) and \(\alpha\) are real numbers with \( 0 < p <1 \leq \alpha, \) and \(e(H)\) is the number of edges in \(H\). We show that a \( (p, \alpha)-\) jumbleed graph behaves in many ways like a random graph with edge probability \(p\), and some aspects of this similarity are examined.
