That night, the Chocolate King visits Alex in his sleep and tells him that there is a mountain of chocolate on one of the islands, with equal probability of being on each island. However, Alex has become very fat from eating chocolate his whole life, so he can’t swim to any of the other islands. Luckily, there is a teleporter on each island. Each teleporter will teleport Alex to exactly one other teleporter (possibly itself) and each teleporter gets teleported to by exactly one teleporter. The configuration of the teleporters is chosen uniformly at random from all possible configurations of teleporters satisfying these criteria. What is the probability that Alex can get his chocolate?
