### AI overview

This research-level blog post explains Laszlo Babai's claimed quasipolynomial-time algorithm for the Graph Isomorphism problem. Later updates report that an error was found, changing the result to sub-exponential time, followed by a claimed workaround restoring the quasipolynomial-time claim.

### Source excerpt

Update 2017-01-09: Laci claims to have found a workaround to the previously posted error, and the claim is again quasipolynoimal time! Updated arXiv paper to follow. Update 2017-01-04: Laci has posted an update on his paper. The short version is that one small step of his analysis was not quite correct, and the result is that his algorithm is sub-exponential, but not quasipolynomial time. The fact that this took over a year to sort out is a testament to the difficulty of the mathematics and the skill of the mathematicians involved.
