A configuration of $G(n, p)$: a Boolean assignment to each edge indicating whether it is present.
Instances For
The edge $\{i, j\}$ of the triple $\{i, j, k\}$.
Instances For
The edge $\{i, k\}$ of the triple $\{i, j, k\}$.
Instances For
The edge $\{j, k\}$ of the triple $\{i, j, k\}$.
Instances For
Pointwise containment of edge configurations: $G \leq H$ iff every edge of $G$ is in $H$.
Instances For
The event that $G$ is triangle-free: no triple $\{i, j, k\}$ spans a triangle.
Instances For
The event "the triangle on $t$ is absent" is decreasing in $G$.
Corollary 7.1.6 (decreasing form): For finitely many decreasing events $A_i$ in $G(n, p)$, $\mathbb{P}_p\!\left(\bigcap_i A_i\right) \geq \prod_i \mathbb{P}_p(A_i)$.
The probability that a specific triple of vertices does not form a triangle in $G(n, p)$ is exactly $1 - p^3$.
The number of ordered triples $i < j < k$ in $\text{Fin } n$ equals $\binom{n}{3}$.
Theorem 7.2.2: For the Erdős-Rényi random graph $G(n, p)$, $\mathbb{P}(G(n, p) \text{ is triangle-free}) \geq (1 - p^3)^{\binom{n}{3}}$.
