Abstract

New bounds on the minimum and maximum limit points of spectra of first-order properties of the Erdös–Rényi random graph are obtained. These results are used to improve bounds on the minimal quantifier depths of first-order formulas with infinite spectra. Moreover, we prove that there are no limit points of the spectra in the interval (1–21–k, 1).
