Given a collection of independent events each of which has strictly positive probability, the probability that all of them occur is also strictly positive. The Lov\'asz local lemma (LLL) asserts that this remains true if the events are not…

The Lov\'{a}sz Local Lemma (LLL) states that the probability that none of a set of "bad" events happens is nonzero if the probability of each event is small compared to the number of bad events it depends on. A series of results have…
