Combinatorics

the phenomenon in which a random structure switches from almost surely lacking a property to almost surely having it within a narrow parameter window.

In combinatorics, sharp threshold refers to the phenomenon in which a random structure switches from almost surely lacking a property to almost surely having it within a narrow parameter window. This meaning comes from Friedgut (1999) in Journal of the American Mathematical Society.[1]
