AlphaEvolve found a step-function construction giving the Erdős minimum-overlap constant C5 an upper bound of 0.380924.
Why it matters
The construction modestly tightens a longstanding bound on a problem posed by Erdős.
What counts as progress
Does a model-generated construction improve the known upper bound on Erdős’s minimum-overlap constant?
