OpenAI reports the second Kahn–Kalai threshold bound

For every finite simple graph H with h≥1 edges and at most n vertices, the threshold for G(n,p) to contain an ordinary copy of H is at most C p_E(n,H)(1+log₂ h) for a universal C.

Understanding the problem

Read the background

For every finite simple graph H with h≥1 edges and at most n vertices, the threshold for G(n,p) to contain an ordinary copy of H is at most C p_E(n,H)(1+log₂ h) for a universal C.

Why it matters

If correct, resolves the second Kahn–Kalai conjecture with a logarithm depending on target edge count.

What counts as progress

Is a graph’s random-containment threshold within a logarithmic factor of its expectation threshold?
