Large systoles in every sufficiently large genus

The theorem improves the best lower bound valid in *every* sufficiently large genus from asymptotic constant 2/92/9 to 11. The every-genus ladder it climbs is Katz-Sabourau's 19/12019/120 and then Liu-Petri's 2/92/9, the latter also by a random construction. Constant 11 was already reached by Petri-Walker along a subsequence of genera, following Erdos-Sachs, so the new contribution is achieving it uniformly rather than the constant itself. The asymptotic problem stays open, and the remaining gap is wide: Brooks and Buser-Sarnak give lim sup⁡≥4/3\limsup\ge4/3, while the elementary area bound is max⁡sys(S)≤2log⁡(4g−2)\max\mathrm{sys}(S)\le2\log(4g-2), asymptotically 2log⁡g2\log g. So this closes much of the liminf gap and determines no optimal constant.
