Lack of Hyperbolicity in Asymptotic Erd\"os--Renyi Sparse Random Graphs

In this work we prove that the giant component of the Erd\"os--Renyi random graph $G(n,c/n)$ for c a constant greater than 1 (sparse regime), is not Gromov $\delta$-hyperbolic for any positive $\delta$ with probability tending to one as $n\to\infty$. As a corollary we provide an alternative proof that the giant component of $G(n,c/n)$ when c>1 has zero spectral gap almost surely as $n\to\infty$.
