On Sharp Thresholds of Monotone Properties: Bourgain's Proof Revisited

Deepak Bal · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2013

The purpose of this expository note is to give the proof of a theorem of Bourgain with some additional details and updated notation. The theorem first appeared as an appendix to the breakthrough paper by Friedgut, \emph{Sharp Thresholds of graph properties and the $k$-SAT Problem}. Throughout, we use notation and definitions akin to those in O'Donnell's book, \emph{Analysis of Boolean Functions}.
