The threshold sequence for polynomial divergence in random right-angled Coxeter groups

From papers

Let Gn,p\mathcal{G}_{n,p} denote the Erdős–Rényi random graph, and let ΓGn,p\Gamma\sim\mathcal{G}_{n,p}. For a group or graph, “thick of order at most kk” is used in the sense of the paper. Threshold-sequence conjecture. There exists an infinite strictly decreasing sequence of strictly positive real numbers (λk)kN(\lambda_k)_{k\in\mathbb{N}} with

λ1=62>λ2>λ3>>λk>,\lambda_1=\sqrt{\sqrt{6}-2}>\lambda_2>\lambda_3>\cdots>\lambda_k>\cdots,

such that for every kNk\in\mathbb{N} and every fixed ε>0\varepsilon>0: (i) if p=p(n)λkεnp=p(n)\leq\frac{\lambda_k-\varepsilon}{\sqrt n}, then a.a.s.a.a.s. Γ\Gamma is not thick of order at most kk; (ii) if p=p(n)p=p(n) satisfies

λk+εnp(n)1Ω(lognn),\frac{\lambda_k+\varepsilon}{\sqrt n}\leq p(n)\leq 1-\Omega\left(\frac{\log n}{n}\right),

then a.a.s.a.a.s. Γ\Gamma is thick of order at most kk. This conjecture proposes sharp thresholds for each finite thickness order and, consequently, for the associated polynomial divergence behavior.
