Growth Constants for Lipschitz Functions on Sparse Random Graphs

Korsky, Saffat and Aiylam bounded the growth constant c(G)c(G) for integer-valued Lipschitz functions on G(n,d/n)G(n,d/n) between 1/(2d)1/(2d) and 4log2d/d4\log^2 d/d up to lower-order terms. The random-graph side is sharpened.

What was actually shown

Resolved the sharp constant (w.h.p.) for random graphs G(n, d/n)

What the AI did

The acknowledgement is unusually direct about scope: the author credits GPT-5.5 with producing fully the mechanism of the upper bound for the hypercube graph. The author is one of the three who set the original bounds.

Verification

Single-author arXiv preprint; not yet peer-reviewed.
