Let $p_\mathrm{c}$ and $q_\mathrm{c}$ be the threshold and the expectation threshold, respectively, of an increasing family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of a finite set $X$, and let $l$ be the size of a largest minimal element of $\mathcal{F}$.…
Neglecting many motivating details for the Park-Pham theorem (previously known as the Kahn-Kalai conjecture), the result starts with a finite set $X$, a non-trivial upper set $\mathcal{F} \subseteq 2^X$, and a particular parameterized…
We revisit the Kahn-Kalai conjecture, recently proved in striking fashion by Park and Pham, and present a slightly reformulated simple proof which has a few advantages: (1) it works for non-uniform product measures, (2) it gives…
We make progress on a conjecture of Kahn and Kalai, the original (stronger but less general) version of what became known as the ``Kahn-Kalai Conjecture" (KKC; now a theorem of Park and Pham). This ``second" KKC concerns the threshold,…
Building on B.Park and Vondrak's recent generalization of the J.Park-Pham Theorem (formerly known as Kahn-Kalai conjecture) to non-uniform probability measures, this paper introduces the notion of "spread" for the non-uniform setting. This…
In a recent paper, Park and Pham famously proved Kahn-Kalai conjecture. In this note, we simplify their proof, using an induction to replace the original analysis. This reduces the proof to one page, and from the argument it is also easy to…
Consider a host hypergraph $G$ which contains a spanning structure due to minimum degree considerations. We collect three results proving that if the edges of $G$ are sampled at the appropriate rate then the spanning structure still appears…
The Park-Pham theorem (previously known as the Kahn-Kalai conjecture), bounds the critical probability, $p_c(\mathcal{F})$, of the a non-trivial property $\mathcal{F}\subseteq 2^X$ that is closed under supersets by the product of a…
Combining ideas of Pham, Sah, Sawhney, and Simkin on spread perfect matchings in super-regular bipartite graphs with an algorithmic blow-up lemma, we prove a spread version of the blow-up lemma. Intuitively, this means that there exists a…
Proving the ``expectation-threshold'' conjecture of Kahn and Kalai, we show that for any increasing property $\mathcal{F}$ on a finite set $X$, $$p_c(\mathcal{F})=O(q(\mathcal{F})\log \ell(\mathcal{F})),$$ where $p_c(\mathcal{F})$ and…
In this expository article, we give a gentle introduction to the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs and threshold phenomena that they exhibit. We also mildly introduce the Kahn-Kalai Conjecture with several intuitive examples, mainly targeting…
We establish a novel connection between the well-known chromatic threshold problem in extremal combinatorics and the celebrated $(p,q)$-theorem in discrete geometry. In particular, for a graph $G$ with bounded clique number and a natural…
The maximum likelihood threshold of a graph is the smallest number of data points that guarantees that maximum likelihood estimates exist almost surely in the Gaussian graphical model associated to the graph. We show that this graph…
We elucidate the relationship between the threshold and the expectation-threshold of a down-set. Qualitatively, our main result demonstrates that there exist down-sets with polynomial gaps between their thresholds and…
We investigate the threshold probability for connectivity of sparse graphs under weak assumptions. As a corollary this completely solve the problem for Cartesian powers of arbitrary graphs. In detail, let $G$ be a connected graph on $k$…
Shalom and Tao showed that a polynomial upper bound on the size of a single, large enough ball in a Cayley graph implies that the underlying group has a nilpotent subgroup with index and degree of polynomial growth both bounded effectively.…
We introduce a natural generalization of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph model in which random instances of a fixed motif are added independently. The binomial random motif graph $G(H,n,p)$ is the random (multi)graph obtained by adding…
In this paper we consider the problem of embedding almost-spanning, bounded degree graphs in a random graph. In particular, let $\Delta\geq 5$, $\varepsilon > 0$ and let $H$ be a graph on $(1-\varepsilon)n$ vertices and with maximum degree…
For integers $k \geq 3$ and $r\geq 2$, we show that for every $\alpha> 0$, there exists $\varepsilon > 0$ such that the union of $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices with minimum codegree at least $\alpha n$ and a binomial random…
We extend Friedman's theorem to show that, for any fixed $r>1$, a random $2r$--regular Schreier graph associated with the action of $r$ uniformly random permutations of $[n]$ on $k_{n}$--tuples of distinct elements in $[n]$ has a…
