Erdős Problem 1175: Threshold Formulation

Threshold reformulation variant.* Replaces chromaticCardinal = λ in the hypothesis of erdos_1175 with λ ≤ chromaticCardinal (a graph of chromatic number ≥ λ has a triangle-free subgraph of chromatic number κ). This is a strengthening of erdos_1175...

Threshold reformulation variant.* Replaces chromaticCardinal = λ in the hypothesis of erdos_1175 with λ ≤ chromaticCardinal (a graph of chromatic number ≥ λ has a triangle-free subgraph of chromatic number κ). This is a strengthening of erdos_1175 (see erdos_1175.test.threshold_implies_exact).

Statement artifacts, not proofs

These records expose exact Lean propositions and statement-only wrappers. Defining a proposition does not supply a proof of it. A placeholder-bearing target also contains no proof. Elaboration checks syntax and types; it does not certify that a formalization perfectly captures every nuance of the informal problem.
