About
Let $\mathcal{R}$ be the set of all finite graphs $G$ with the Ramsey property that every coloring of the edges of $G$ by two colors yields a monochromatic triangle. In this paper we establish a sharp threshold for random graphs with this property. Let $G(n,p)$ be the random graph on $n$ vertices with edge probability $p$. We prove that there exists a function $\widehat c=\widehat c(n)=\Theta(1)$ such that for any $\varepsilon >0$, as $n$ tends to infinity, $Pr\left[G(n,(1-\varepsilon)\widehat c/\sqrt{n}) \in \mathcal{R} \right] \rightarrow 0$ and $Pr \left[ G(n,(1+\varepsilon)\widehat c/\sqrt{n}) \in \mathcal{R}\ \right] \rightarrow 1$. A crucial tool that is used in the proof and is of independent interest is a generalization of Szemeredi's Regularity Lemma to a certain hypergraph setting.
