contents We prove that a random automaton with $n$ states and any fixed non-singleton alphabet is synchronizing with high probability (modulo an unpublished result about unique highest trees of random graphs). Moreover, we also prove that the convergence rate is exactly $1-Θ(\frac{1}{n})$ as conjectured by [Cameron, 2011] for the most interesting binary alphabet case. Finally, we present a deterministic algorithm which decides whether a given random automaton is synchronizing in linear in $n$ expected time and prove that it is optimal.
