OpenAI reports deterministic Ramanujan graphs at prescribed large sizes

For every fixed d≥3 and every sufficiently large even n, a deterministic algorithm outputs in polynomial bit time a simple connected nonbipartite d-regular n-vertex graph whose nonconstant adjacency eigenvalues lie strictly between ±2√(d−1).

Understanding the problem

Read the background

For every fixed d≥3 and every sufficiently large even n, a deterministic algorithm outputs in polynomial bit time a simple connected nonbipartite d-regular n-vertex graph whose nonconstant adjacency eigenvalues lie strictly between ±2√(d−1).

Why it matters

If correct, gives an explicit exact-threshold construction at all sufficiently large admissible orders for each fixed degree.

What counts as progress

Can nonbipartite Ramanujan graphs be built deterministically at every sufficiently large admissible size?
