Put $d=np=\gamma \log n$ and $\mu =n^{1-\gamma }$. The hypothesis implies $\mu \ge e^{\omega (n)}\to \infty$. For the number $I$ of isolated vertices, the isolated vertices in the Erdős-Rényi model formulas giveThus the Chebyshev inequality gives $I=(1+o(1))\mu$ with high probability, uniformly over the specified $\gamma$ range.

The Cayley formula supplies a spanning tree on any connected vertex set. Consequently the expected value $C_j$ of the number of graph components of order $j\ge 2$ is bounded byChoose a fixed $\eta \in (0,1/2)$ with ${\gamma }_0(1-\eta )(k+1)>1$. For $k+1\le j\le \eta n$, with $j\ge 2$, the binomial coefficient bound $\left(\genfrac{}{}{0ex}{}{n}{j}\right)\le (en/j{)}^j$ givesHere $ed{e}^{-d(1-\eta )}\le e\log n{n}^{-{\gamma }_0(1-\eta )}\to 0$. The geometric series and a union bound therefore exclude this entire size range, since $n[e\log n{n}^{-{\gamma }_0(1-\eta )}{]}^{k+1}=o(1)$. For $\eta n\le j\le n/2$, an empty graph cut would be necessary. Its total probability is at mostThere are consequently no graph components of orders between $k+1$ and $n/2$, with high probability.

For each fixed $2\le j\le k$, a graph component containing a graph cycle has a spanning tree and at least one extra edge. Counting that extra edge gives an expected value $O_k(d^j{e}^{-dj})=o(1)$; hence every small graph component is a tree component. The total number $R_2$ of vertices in tree components of orders $2,\dots ,k$ satisfiesThe Markov inequality gives $R_2=o(\mu )$ with high probability. When $k=1$, this sum is empty and $R_2=0$. Since $\mu =o(n)$, the remaining vertices must lie in one graph component larger than $n/2$. It is unique, and its order is $n-(1+o(1))n^{1-\gamma }$. Every other graph component is a tree with at most $k$ vertices. This is the logarithmic-regime giant component mechanism: almost all missing vertices are isolated.

Every nonprincipal Dirichlet character modulo the prime $q$ is primitive, so its finite Fourier coefficients have modulus one off zero; the coefficient at zero is zero by character orthogonality. Fourier inversion theorem givesThe finite geometric series givesThe printed hint omits $n$ from the exponential; its literal constant summand would not obey the bound for arbitrary $N$. The geometric-series calculation proves the needed estimate independently. Pairing $a$ with $q-a$ givesThe last sum is a harmonic number. This proves the Pólya–Vinogradov inequality uniformly in $M$ and $N$; complete blocks of length $q$ also vanish by Orthogonality of Dirichlet characters.

Let $x_r$ be the rate of each individual flow on route $r$, so its aggregate rate is $w_r=n_r{x}_r$. The feasible allocations satisfy ${\sum }_{r:j\in r}{n}_r{x}_r\le C_j$. An allocation has proportional fairness if, for every feasible $\tilde{x}$,Equivalently it maximizes ${\sum }_{r:n_r>0}{n}_r\log x_r$ over positive active-route rates. This is the first-order optimality condition for a concave objective on a convex set. Rates for absent flows can be set to zero.

For the linear flow network, put $N={\sum }_{r=0}^I{n}_r$ and $M={\sum }_{i=1}^I{n}_i$. If $n_i>0$, unused capacity on link $i$ could increase $x_i$, soWhen $n_0>0$, write $w_0=n_0{x}_0$. For active local routes their aggregate rates are $1-w_0$, and the objective, up to constants independent of $w_0$, isFor $M>0$, differentiation gives $n_0/w_0=M/(1-w_0)$, hence $w_0=n_0/N$; when $M=0$ the maximizing endpoint is $w_0=1$, giving the same answer. Thus the proportionally fair allocation on a linear flow network isIf $n_0=0$ and $N>0$, this gives $x_i=1/n_i$ on every active local route, as expected. No departure occurs at the empty state.

Independent Poisson processes of flow arrivals and independent exponential distributions of document sizes make the count vector a continuous-time Markov chain. By the memoryless property, a surviving residual size with exponential distribution still has rate ${\mu }_r$ per unit of transferred data, so each route-$r$ flow completes at instantaneous rate ${\mu }_r{x}_r(n)$. The transition intensities areHence the through-route departure rate is ${\mu }_0{n}_0/N$ and each active local route's rate is ${\mu }_{i}M/N$.

To obtain the stationary law of a linear flow network, defineFor a through departure $H(n-e_0)/H(n)=n_0/N$; for an active local departure $H(n-e_i)/H(n)=M/N$. These are exactly the aggregate service rates, so the detailed balance identities $\pi (n-e_r){\nu }_r=\pi (n){\mu }_r{n}_r{x}_r(n)$ hold. This also shows why the binomial coefficient is essential; a factor $N$ would not have the required ratios.

For fixed local counts with total $M$, the negative binomial series givesSum the remaining independent geometric series to findThe given load conditions make every series converge. Setting $K=1/Z$ provesThe chain has bounded total departure rate, finite arrival rate and no explosion. With positive arrival rates it is irreducible, and this normalized invariant law gives the positive recurrent Markov chain property; zero arrival rates restrict the stationary support to the corresponding reachable class.

Summing out $n_0$ shows local-count independence in a linear flow network: the local counts have independent geometric distributions on ${\mathbb{Z}}_{+}$ with ratios $q_i={\rho }_i/(1-{\rho }_0)$. ThereforeThey are independent of one another under the stationary marginal, despite sharing the random through-flow population. The through count is generally dependent on them.

The PDF's small superscript is essential: $f(x)=a^x\mathrm{mod}N$. Interpret $r$ as the least positive period, the multiplicative order of $a$ modulo $N$. If one permitted an unspecified nonminimal period, the answer would not be identifiable; for example, $a=1,N=8$ gives the same constant function with period one or period eight. Under the promised periodic modular-exponential interpretation, $a^r\equiv 1(\mathrm{mod}N)$, so $a$ is a unit. ThusIn particular, different residue classes modulo $r$ have different function values, which is necessary for the usual quantum period finding coset argument.

Prepare $N^{-1/2}{\sum }_x|x⟩|1⟩$ by applying the quantum Fourier transform to the first register. Use repeated squaring to precompute $a^{2^j}\mathrm{mod}N$, then multiply the value register by that known number controlled on bit $j$ of $x$. These controlled modular multiplications are reversible because $a$ is a unit; their inverses use the modular inverses of the same constants. This produces $N^{-1/2}{\sum }_x|x⟩|a^x\mathrm{mod}N⟩$ with a polynomial number of the assumed arithmetic operations. Known work registers can be uncomputed.

Measure the value register. Since $r\mid N$, its fiber is exactly one coset, and the first register becomesThe quantum Fourier transform of a periodic coset state is supported uniformly on the $r$ outcomes $c=jN/r$, $0\le j<r$. Indeed the inner geometric series ${\sum }_{\ell =0}^{N/r-1}{e}^{2\pi i\ell rc/N}$ is zero unless $(N/r)\mid c$, and each allowed amplitude has modulus $1/\sqrt{r}$.

Take two independent Fourier samples $c_1,c_2$ and returnThis is two-sample exact period recovery. The Chinese remainder theorem makes divisibility of independent uniform residues independent across the different prime divisors of $r$. For each such prime $\ell$, both $j_1$ and $j_2$ are divisible by $\ell$ with probability ${\ell }^{-2}$. ThereforeThe number-theoretic facts used here are the Chinese remainder theorem, the Euler product for the Riemann zeta function at two, and $\zeta (2)={\pi }^2/6$. The candidate can also be certified by $a^{\hat{r}}\equiv 1(\mathrm{mod}N)$: it divides the least period, so this equality holds exactly when it is the full period. Each preparation, reversible evaluation, QFT, measurement and greatest common divisor calculation has the assumed or standard polynomial time cost in $\log N$. Two runs suffice for the desired constant success probability. Quantum period finding recovers the least period with probability at least $6/{\pi }^2$ in polynomial time.

Let $r=e^{i\theta }\ne 1$. The geometric series from any starting index is bounded:Using summation by parts,Since the coefficients are nonincreasing and positive, the modulus is at most $K(a_N+a_m-a_N)=K{a}_m\to 0$. The Cauchy criterion proves convergence for every $\theta \notin 2\pi \mathbb{Z}$. This is a direct proof of the Dirichlet test in this setting.

For $a_n=1/n$, the imaginary parts of the convergent partial sums give convergence of the sine series at those angles. If $\theta \in 2\pi \mathbb{Z}$, every sine term is zero. Hence the sine series converges for all real angles.

A real sequence $(x_n)$ has limit of a sequence $x$ whenA series ${\sum }_{n\ge 1}{x}_n$ is a convergent series with sum $s$ when its partial sums $S_N={\sum }_{n=1}^N{x}_n$ have limit of a sequence $s$.

For the first comparison test for series, either of the two allowed bounds implies $0<x_n\le a_n+b_n$. HenceThe partial sums form a monotone bounded sequence, so they converge. The series $\sum x_n$ is convergent.

For the exponent $2$, use $1/n^2\le 1/[n(n-1)]=1/(n-1)-1/n$ for $n\ge 2$. The resulting telescoping series bounds every partial sum by $2$, proving that the series converges by the monotone bounded sequence property. To prove divergence of the harmonic series, group the terms with $2^j<n\le 2^{j+1}$: their sum is at least $2^j/2^{j+1}=1/2$. Thus its partial sums are unbounded. If $\alpha \le 1$, then $n^{-\alpha }\ge n^{-1}$, so the comparison test for series proves

For the weighted square assumption, the finite-dimensional Cauchy-Schwarz inequality gives, for every $N$,Again the positive partial sums form a monotone bounded sequence. This is the weighted square roots of a summable sequence argument, with $a_n=n^2{x}_n^2$. The weighted square condition implies $\sum x_n<\infty$.

The converse is false. Take $x_n=n^{-3/2}$. Each block $2^j\le n<2^{j+1}$ contributes at most $2^j{2}^{-3j/2}=2^{-j/2}$, and the resulting geometric series converges. But $n^2{x}_n^2=1/n$, whose harmonic series diverges. This proves the counterexample without assuming the full P-series criterion.

The Vinogradov mean value isBy orthogonality of integer Fourier modes, it counts the ordered integer solutions of ${\sum }_{i=1}^k{x}_i^j={\sum }_{i=1}^k{y}_i^j$ for $1\le j\le r$, with every coordinate between one and $\lfloor Z\rfloor$. The diagonal solutions $y_i=x_i$ give $J_{k,r}(Z)\ge \lfloor Z{\rfloor }^k$.

Put $D=r(r+1)/2$. The moment vector $({\sum }_i{x}_i^j{)}_{j=1}^r$ has at most ${\prod }_{j=1}^r(k\lfloor Z{\rfloor }^j+1){\ll }_{k,r}{Z}^D$ possible values. If $R(v)$ counts the tuples with vector $v$, then ${\sum }_{v}R(v)=\lfloor Z{\rfloor }^k$ and $J_{k,r}(Z)={\sum }_{v}R(v{)}^2$. The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality gives $J_{k,r}(Z){\gg }_{k,r}{Z}^{2k-D}$. Combining the two lower bounds, with one common positive constant for large $Z$, yields

Here is an explicit way that upper bounds enter the Vinogradov mean-value method for a bilinear exponential sum. Write $U={\sum }_{x,y\le Z}e({\sum }_j{\alpha }_j{x}^j{y}^j)$ and $L_j=k\lfloor Z{\rfloor }^j$. Two applications of the Holder inequality, followed by grouping equal differences of moment vectors, giveAt integer ${\alpha }_{j}v$ the minimum is defined as $2L_j+1$; $\Vert u\Vert$ means distance to the nearest integer. To explain the mean-value factor, let $r(v)$ count pairs of $k$-tuples with prescribed moment difference. It is an autocorrelation of $R$, so $r(v)\le {\sum }_{w}R(w{)}^2=J_{k,r}(Z)$ by Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. The first Holder inequality groups the $y$ tuples, and the second groups the $x$ tuples, providing the two factors $J$. The remaining sums over moment differences are bounded by the displayed finite geometric series estimates. Good Vinogradov mean value upper bounds, together with rational approximation or spacing bounds for ${\alpha }_j$, therefore give cancellation in $U$. The mean-value estimate alone does not force cancellation for arbitrary coefficients: when all ${\alpha }_j$ are integers, $U=\lfloor Z{\rfloor }^2$. For the paper take $Z=N^{2/5}$ and the specified ${\alpha }_j$.

The Taylor series definition says that $f\in C^{\infty }(\mathbb{R})$ and, for every $a$, there is $r>0$ such thatThe equivalent factorial derivative criterion for real analyticity says that, for every $a$, there are a neighborhood $I$ of $a$ and constants $C,A>0$ such thatThe uniformity over $I$ matters: bounds only at $a$ do not exclude a flat function.

Assume the factorial derivative criterion for real analyticity. The Taylor theorem with Lagrange remainder giveswhen the segment from $a$ to $a+h$ is contained in $I$. For sufficiently small $|h|<A^{-1}$ the Taylor remainder tends to zero, proving the Taylor series definition.

Conversely, write the convergent power series at $a$ as $\sum b_k{h}^k$. Choose $\rho$ strictly inside its radius of convergence; then $|b_k|\le M{\rho }^{-k}$ for some $M$. Termwise differentiation on $|h|\le \rho /2$ givesHere the sum is $(1-1/2{)}^{-n-1}$, obtained by differentiating the geometric series. This is the required locally uniform bound. The two definitions of a real analytic function are equivalent.

Since $a$ is an indicator function of density of a finite subset $\alpha$, the triangle inequality gives $|\hat{a}(r)|\le {\mathbb{E}}_{x}a(x)=\alpha$ for every frequency. Also, character orthogonality and the Parseval identity on a finite group giveFor completeness, the character orthogonality used here iswhich follows by summing a finite geometric series. Expanding the squared Fourier coefficients on a finite abelian group and using this identity proves the displayed Parseval identity on a finite group directly.

Combining the uniform bound with that identity gives the fourth-moment boundIn particular, the Lp norm on the frequency side here is a sum, not a normalized average. This is the fourth Fourier moment bound for an indicator function.

We need independent sets in every sufficiently large remaining induced subgraph, rather than just one in the initial random graph. The useful concentration variable is the maximum edge-disjoint clique packing in the complement graph; changing one edge changes that variable by at most one. This avoids the much larger sensitivity of the ordinary clique count in a binomial random graph.

First work in a binomial random graph $H\sim G(m,1/2)$, take $r=r_0(m)$, and let $X$ count its $r$-cliques. Put $\mu =\mathbb{E}X\ge m^{9/5}$ and let $Z$ be its maximum edge-disjoint clique packing size. Form the clique conflict graph whose vertices are these cliques, adjacent when they share an edge. If $Q$ counts unordered conflicting pairs, the Caro-Wei bound gives, for each realization,To verify the bound, randomly order the vertices of a finite graph and retain each vertex preceding all its graph neighbours. These retained vertices are an independent set, with expected size ${\sum }_v(1+\mathrm{deg}v{)}^{-1}\ge X^2/(X+2Q)$ by the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. Interpret the ratio as zero when $X=0$. A second application of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, now to expectations, givesCounting ordered pairs of $r$-sets with $j$ common vertices, including identical sets when $j=r$, yieldsThe shared edges account for the factor $2^{\left(\genfrac{}{}{0ex}{}{j}{2}\right)}$. We claimHere are the estimates, including the large overlaps. For $2\le j\le \lfloor r/2\rfloor$, the probability that a random $r$-set contains any specified $j$ elements is at most $(r/(m-r){)}^j$. Summing over their choices inside the first $r$-set givesThe logarithm of $T_j$ is a convex function, a quadratic in $j$, so the maximum on this interval is at an endpoint. We have $T_2=O(r^4/m^2)$. As $r=(2+o(1)){\log }_{2}m$, the other endpoint satisfiesand is smaller than $T_2$ for sufficiently large $m$. Summing at most $r$ terms gives $O(r^5/m^2)$.

For the other half of the overlaps, write $j=r-s$, where $0\le s\le \lceil r/2\rceil$. The exact identity and an upper bound areThe quantity in parentheses is $m^{-1/2+o(1)}$, which tends to zero. The geometric series is thus at most $2/\mu$ for sufficiently large $m$. This proves the claim. In fact $r^5/m^2=o(m^{-9/5})$ and $1/\mu \le m^{-9/5}$, so eventuallyNow expose the $N=\left(\genfrac{}{}{0ex}{}{m}{2}\right)$ independent edge indicators one at a time. The edge-exposure martingale $M_i=\mathbb{E}[Z\mid \text{first }i\text{ indicators}]$ starts at $\mathbb{E}Z$ and ends at $Z$. Deleting one edge destroys at most one member of any edge-disjoint clique packing. Hence changing one indicator changes $Z$ by at most one; coupling the remaining indicators shows $|M_i-M_{i-1}|\le 1$.

Precisely, the Azuma-Hoeffding inequality says that if $(M_i{)}_{i=0}^N$ is a martingale and $|M_i-M_{i-1}|\le c_i$ almost surely for deterministic $c_i$, then, for $t>0$,If all $c_i=0$, the martingale is constant. Applying the lower-tail inequality with $c_i=1$ and $t=\mathbb{E}Z$ givesfor sufficiently large $m$. This is the only martingale concentration inequality needed.

Return to the original binomial random graph $G\sim G(n,1/2)$ and set $m=\lceil n/({\log }_{2}n{)}^2\rceil$. For each fixed $m$-element vertex set $U$, the complement graph of $G[U]$ has distribution $G(m,1/2)$. The union bound therefore givessince $m^{8/5}/n\to \infty$. Thus with high probability every vertex set of size at least $m$ contains an independent set of sizeApply greedy colouring by removing independent sets: remove such an independent set, give it a fresh colour, and repeat while at least $m$ vertices remain. Give each of the fewer than $m$ final vertices its own colour. This uses at mostcolours, since $m=o(n/{\log }_{2}n)$. Together with the lower bound, this gives the chromatic number of the half-density binomial random graph:

A feasible per-flow allocation satisfies $x_r>0$ for each active route and ${\sum }_r{A}_{jr}{n}_r{x}_r\le C_j$. It has proportional fairness if every feasible competitor obeysBy the first-order inequality for the strictly concave logarithm, this is equivalent to maximizing weighted logarithmic utility ${\sum }_{r:n_r>0}{n}_r\log x_r$ over the feasible allocations. Inactive-route rates are immaterial; set them to zero as a convention.

Write $a=n_{\{1\}}$, $b=n_{\{2\}}$, $c=n_{\{1,2\}}$, and $N=a+b+c$. The capacity constraints are $a{x}_1+c{x}_0\le 1$ and $b{x}_2+c{x}_0\le 1$. For $c>0$, put $q=c{x}_0$. Each active local route uses its remaining capacity $1-q$. Omitting constants, the utility isIts maximum has $q=c/N$; when $a+b=0$, the maximum is the endpoint $q=1$. Hence for active routesThese formulas also give $x_1=1/a$ and $x_2=1/b$ when $c=0$. When $N=0$ there is no allocated service. Equivalently, the aggregate route rates for $N>0$ areThis is the proportionally fair allocation on a two-resource linear network for a two-resource linear flow network.

For independent Poisson processes of documents and independent document sizes with exponential distribution of rate ${\mu }_r$, the memorylessness of the exponential distribution makes the population a continuous-time Markov chain. Its transition intensities areThe departure intensity sums the $n_r$ independent completion hazards ${\mu }_r{x}_r$. There is no departure on an inactive route. Set ${\rho }_r={\nu }_r/{\mu }_r$, with ${\mu }_r>0$.

To prove the proposed stationary distribution, define the balance function of a flow-level networkFor an active local route, $\Psi (n-e_r)/\Psi (n)=(a+b)/N$, while for the through route this ratio is $c/N$. Thus ${\Lambda }_r(n)=\Psi (n-e_r)/\Psi (n)$. The weightssatisfy detailed balance on every arrival-departure pair:Each total jump rate is bounded by ${\sum }_r({\nu }_r+{\mu }_r)$, so the chain is a nonexplosive Markov chain; normalized detailed-balance weights therefore give its stationary distribution, the stationary law of a two-resource linear flow network.

Use the negative binomial series to sum first over $c$:The remaining two geometric series giveAll summands are nonnegative. Consequently the sum is finite exactly under the stability conditions for a two-resource linear flow networkThese say that the offered load on each unit-capacity resource is strictly below one. Equality is insufficient: at least one geometric series then diverges. If all arrival rates are positive, the chain is irreducible and the normalizable law is its unique equilibrium law.

Finally put $q_i={\rho }_i/(1-{\rho }_0)$, $i=1,2$. Summing over $c$ yieldsThus the two local-route counts are independent, each with geometric distribution on the nonnegative integers. The conditional through-route count has negative binomial distributionFor positive traffic rates this depends on the local counts, so all three route counts are not independent. More quantitatively, $\mathrm{Cov}(a,c)={\rho }_0\mathrm{Var}(a)/(1-{\rho }_0)>0$, and likewise for $b$. If zero arrival rates are allowed, the exceptional independent cases are ${\rho }_0=0$, or ${\rho }_1={\rho }_2=0$, when the relevant counts are deterministic zero. This distinction is local-count independence with through-flow dependence.

Use the convention required by the printed expansion:where $u_i\in Y$ and $v_i\in X$ form the positive-singular-value parts of the singular system of a compact operator. Consequently $A^{\ast }A{v}_i={\sigma }_i^2{v}_i$. Apply part (b)'s polynomial to each such eigenvector, using noisy data:The geometric series then gives the full inverse coefficient, or Landweber full inverse filter,In particular, for the unrelaxed iteration $\tau =1$, $g_{\alpha }(\sigma )=[1-(1-{\sigma }^2{)}^{1/\alpha }]/\sigma$. The dimensionless Landweber spectral filter is instead $\sigma g_{\alpha }(\sigma )$; the printed expression uses the full coefficient and therefore needs the denominator $\sigma$.

For each fixed finite $n$, the filter extends continuously at zero by $g_{1/n}(0)=0$, since $g_{1/n}(\sigma )=n\tau \sigma +O({\sigma }^3)$ as $\sigma \to 0$. Small singular values are suppressed rather than immediately divided into noisy data. A component of $y^{(\delta )}$ in $\ker A^{\ast }$ contributes nothing. The parameter here is discrete: $1/\alpha$ is an integer. This matters when $1-\tau {\sigma }^2<0$; arbitrary real powers are not intended. A family for every $\alpha >0$ can use $n=\lfloor 1/\alpha \rfloor$ instead.

Put $\alpha =1-n/q>0$ andFirst suppose $A<\infty$. For an interior ball $B_R$, with $R\le 1$, write $M_R={\mathrm{esssup}}_{B_R}u$, $m_R={\mathrm{essinf}}_{B_R}u$, and $\omega (R)=M_R-m_R$. Constant shifts of a divergence-form elliptic operator change its forcing. The two nonnegative weak supersolutions $v=M_R-u$ and $w=u-m_R$ satisfy, respectively,Their Weak Harnack inequalities on $B_{R/2}$ therefore have forcing errors bounded by $CN{R}^{\alpha }$. Indeed $|M_R|,|m_R|\le A$, the new divergence forcing is bounded by $\Vert F{\Vert }_q+A\Vert b{\Vert }_q$, and the scalar forcing by $\Vert g{\Vert }_{q/2}+A\Vert d{\Vert }_{q/2}$; also $R^{2\alpha }\le R^{\alpha }$.
