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.
