The Unit Acquisition Number of Binomial Random Graphs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Let $G$ be a graph in which each vertex initially has weight 1. In each step, the unit weight from a vertex $u$ to a neighbouring vertex $v$ can be moved, provided that the weight on $v$ is at least as large as the weight on $u$. The unit acquisition number of $G$, denoted by $a_u(G)$, is the minimum cardinality of the set of vertices with positive weight at the end of the process (over all acquisition protocols). In this paper, we investigate the Erdős-Rényi random graph process $(\mathcal{G}(n,m))_{m =0}^{N}$, where $N = {n \choose 2}$. We show that asymptotically almost surely $a_u(\mathcal{G}(n,m)) = 1$ right at the time step the random graph process creates a connected graph. Since trivially $a_u(\mathcal{G}(n,m)) \ge 2$ if the graphs is disconnected, the result holds in the strongest possible sense.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
