A. A. Razborov has shown that there exists a polynomial time computable monotone Boolean function whose monotone circuit complexity is at least \(n^{c\log n}\). We observe that this lower bound can be improved to \(\exp(cn^{1/6-o(1)})\). The proof is immediate by combining the Alon- Boppana version of another argument of Razborov with results of Grötschel-Lovász-Schrijver on the Lovász-capacity \(\delta\) of a graph.
