Something that I went "woah" when I first encountered the theorem statement. Countable infinity has managed to surprise me (or hopefully also you) again. I learned this from the Graduate Graph Theory textbook of Reinhard Diestel (www.amazon.ca/Graph-Theory-Re...) sections 8.3 and 11.3 to be exact.
Thank you so much for 3b1b for hosting SoME1 ( • The Summer of Math Exp... . This really boosted my motivation to create a math-related video. Hopefully, I will continue making more videos of similar style even after the contest is over. Hope you enjoy! :)

    The fact this infinite graph isn't only locally connected makes it really hard to draw or visualize. It's basically a fully connected infinite graph with half the edges missing... so a bunch of the edges are missing but every vertex still has an infinite amount of edges to an infinite amount of vertices.

    To blow some more minds... pause at 14:20 and realize that he never uses the extact 1/2 propability of coin flipping. Only thing needed, is that the propability of being a good vertex needs to be non-zero. So, flipping a coin or roling a dice (1=create edge, 2-6=no edge) will (almost always) construct the same infinite graph. Would be interesting to see how the propabilities behave for finite but huge graphs. Does the limit also go to 1?

    Very nice video! To anyone interested in the "Logic" part mentioned at the end, the short version is this: Let's assume we have a collection of finite structures (in our case, all finite graphs - but this also works with the collections of finite ordered sets). If this collection has a few nice properties (here is an example: any two finite graphs can be joined to create a bigger finite graph; the other properties are not much more complicated), then we have an equivalent of the Rado graph. By "equivalent" I mean that it has a property very similar to the killer property, contains a copy of every member of the collection, and is unique (and also many other nice properties). This is called a Fraïssé limit, if you want to look it up.

    Ok, I think I have a convincing argument as to why the sum should be 0. If we consider the sum of all subsets U of size k and subsets V of size l, then there are a countably infinite number of those(We can think of the set of all Us of size k as being strictly smaller than the set of all ordered k tuples of natural numbers, and that second set is countably infinite). For any one of them, P(U,V has the property)=0, so the sum over those sets is 0. Now we can sum over k and l, where we have clearly countably infinite combinations of k, l, so the sum of zeroes must still be 0. This works because each "zero" isn't being multiplied by anything. Put another way, a countable sum of things "going to zero" is itself going to zero, regardless of how badly behaved the sum is(put simply, it can't be going to anything else), and this case is better because those things are "actually" zero.

This is an inductive definition, and it will be defined for all infinitely many vertices in G. This is similar to how "F(0)=0, F(1)=1, F(n+2)=F(n+1)+F(n)" is an inductive definition of the Fibonacci numbers, and is defined for infinitely many n.

As above, assume G is a graph on countable infinitely many vertices. Using induction you could convince me that the Rado graph contains any subgraph of G on arbitrarily many (but finitely so) vertices, but induction would not convince me that G in its entirety was therein contained. I guess I'll agree that any fixed vertex of G will eventually be mapped to some vertex in G, I just don't feel entirely comfortable saying that the process will "end," in some sense, with all of G embedded in the Rado graph.

    The fact at the beginning did blow my mind, but I also kinda didn't pay much attention to the fact that the graph was infinite. It really messes things up in those paradoxical ways. Unfortunately, by realizing that the "infiniteness" of graphs is what's at work here, the whole problem also "breaks". You cannot really flip a coin infinitely many times. So there's kinda no paradox about drawing the same graph because you cannot really draw an infinite graph. They say, you and your friend are still rolling those coins to this day. Either way, it's pretty cool that there are no different countably infinite graphs (with some exceptions that have probability = 0 of happening).

The analogous question for real numbers is something like: with probability 1 a random real will be a normal number (i.e. contain all finite digit sequences with the average density expected for their length).

For example, when talking about infinite series, we can no longer alter the order of addition as we want. I suspect it would be the same here if we try to retrieve vertices just by talking about their property. The order of retrieval actually influences the structure of the mathematical object. Nice presentation anyway, very interesting topic.

    The order in which we choose to go over the vertices certainly affects, say, the actual correspondence we find between the two graphs. It does not, however, affect the structure of the Rado graph itself - if you "explore" the Rado graph, it would "look the same" no matter where you go. An easier example that works in very much the same way is finding order preserving functions between the rationals and another copy of the rationals (such as the function f(x)=x+1, or f(x)=2x). You can again construct such a function step-by-step: Let's say we have decided that f(1)=2, f(3)=2.5, f(5)=100 and f(6)=101 (so far, the order is preserved: 1

So you actually probably do know enough measure theory to make countably many independent binary choices!

    Thanks for the video. I just have one question about the bijection step. When selecting the smallest unmatched index of G (the graph with the killer property), what does it mean to have a smallest index? If the ordering of the indices is random, it seems to me that the smallest unmatched index could have edges connected to other unmatched indices, meaning you have mapped it to the wrong Rado index. It feels like you cannot map indices from G in any order.

    You fix some indexing of the vertices of G, so the indexing is not randomised. And when selecting a vertex with correct connectivity, we are only interested the connectivity to the vertices already chosen, and will deal connectivity to other vertices later. By the killer property, there always exists some vertex with the correct connectivity, and from all such vertices we pick the smallest one.

    There are two parts that I don't understand about step 2 of the proof. (1) Why is P(v good) > 0? Since there are possibly infinite number of "v"s any finite number of cases does not show the probability is larger than zero. (2) A summation of infinitely many "really-close-to-zero"s can become non-zero. For example sum[1...p] (1/p) gives 1 when p goes to infinity (1/p goes to 0). Therefore the argument at 14:08 does not seem valid to me

    Doesn’t really matter. We just care about the connections between them, not how they are arranged in space. We don’t even have to require that they have positions at all. So, if you want to imagine them as being on a paper, just pick whether their positions are arranged regularly or not based on whichever one is easier for you to imagine.

    I don't understand why the sum at 14:09 holds. You have the lim k->inf [sum over all U,W of P(U,W fail killer prop)]. I understand that P(U,W fail killer prop) tends toward 0 but since the amount of U,W that exists also depends on k I don't see why you can pull the limit into the sum. For example: limit k->inf [sum from i=0 to k of 1/k] will sum to one despite the summand going to 0.

When you then consider all possible interconnections between those points, you will find at least one that matches the graph you started looking for.

    I feel like there's some argumentation missing around 14:30. It does feel like it works out in the end though. You're taking the limit of p^k with l going to infinity, finding it's 0 and then doing an infinite sum over these probabilities. I think you can't do that, and that you can only take the limit at the last step. Something like: let G_k be a random graph with k vertices, p(U, W, G_k fails the killer prop) = p^k, where U and W are subgraphs of G_k. Then p(fails killer prop) = lim_{k -> \infty} \Sum_{U, W finite and disjoint subgraphs of G_k} p(U, W, G_k fails the killer prop) = lim_{k -> \infty} \Sum_{U, W finite and disjoint subgraphs of G_k} p^k = lim_{k -> \infty} 3^k \dot p^k. I don't know exactly how p depends on U, V and G_k, but I think it matters. Let me know if I'm missing something.

    He took the limit p^k -> 0 to compute the probability P(every vertex is bad)=0. If you look what he did, he actually proved that for any finite disjoint subsets U,W of vertices, P(U,W fail killer property)=0. There are countably many pairs of finite disjoint subsets of vertices, so the inequality is the union bound, and on the right hand side we are only summing (countably many) zeros, which is equal to zero.

    The subsets are finite, so the probability that some arbitrary v is a good vertex is just the probability that it is adjacent to every vertex in U and not adjacent to every vertex in V. The probability that v is adjacent to every vertex in U is (1/2)^|U| where |U| is the size of U, and likewise the probability that v is not adjacent to every vertex in V is (1/2)^|V|. Because these are independent, we have P(v good)=(1/2)^(|U|+|V|)=(1/2)^k for some finite integer k. (1/2)^k>0 for all k, so we have P(v good)>0 for all finite U, V

    The killer property states that we can find _some_ vertex outside the two sets that satisfies the property. If a single vertex doesn't work, that doesn't mean the property is false; we might have just chosen the wrong one. To negate the property, you'd need to prove that _every_ vertex outside the two sets doesn't work, and that's an infinite number of vertices. Since each one has a non-zero chance of working, the probability that one of them will eventually work approaches 1.

That is unless you can prove that the rado graph is indistinguishable to every rado graph of every base.
