Logarithmic-regime giant component ($L_1=n-(1+o(1))n^{1-\gamma },p=\gamma \log n/n$)

Fix $k\ge 1$, ${\gamma }_0>1/(k+1)$, and ${\gamma }_0\le \gamma \le 1-\omega (n)/\log n$ with $\omega (n)\to \infty$. A binomial random graph has one giant component of the displayed order and all other graph components are tree components of orders at most $k$, with high probability. The expected value and variance of the isolated vertex count concentrate it around $n^{1-\gamma }\to \infty$. A Cayley formula upper bound for connected sets excludes component sizes $k+1$ through a small fixed fraction of $n$; the empty-graph cut bound excludes the remaining sizes up to $n/2$. An extra-edge count excludes cyclic small graph components. The expected value of the number of vertices in small nonisolated tree components is $O(nd{e}^{-2d})=o(n{e}^{-d})$, where $d=np$. The Markov inequality completes the count of vertices outside the unique large graph component.
