  "description": "Label Cover instances; a graph built from families of phases on layers of tuples of questions, with a proper coloring by three colors when all tests can be satisfied. Lipschitz functions for the sup distance on tori: odd extension, means over coordinates, influences. Lists of answers from an independent set, and the alignment theorem for families of lists, with proofs of the minimax theorem and of Ramsey's theorem. The theorem: for every delta > 0 it is NP-hard to tell graphs with a proper coloring by three colors from graphs whose independent sets have fewer than delta |V| vertices, from two named hypotheses (the PCP theorem and parallel repetition); Austin's theorem on Lipschitz functions of many variables, which the proof uses, is proved in the course Hypercontractivity on a torus and juntas for Lipschitz functions. The course is an exposition of OpenAI's proof (2026).",
