For a fixed integer $q \ge 3$, we call a graph $q$-colorable if its vertices admit $q$ colors with adjacent vertices colored differently. We prove that there exists $d_q > 0$ such that the random graph on $n$ vertices with independent edge probability $d/n$ is $q$-colorable with probability tending to one for fixed $0 \le d d_q$, as $n \to \infty$. The same holds for the uniform random graph with $\lfloor cn \rfloor$ edges, for fixed $c \ge 0$, with threshold $d_q/2$ in $c$. For fixed $\epsilon \in (0, 1)$, the first loss of colorability under independent uniform additions of pairs of…
