Supersaturated graphs and hypergraphs

From MaRDI portal





In this paper are investigated supersaturated graphs and hypergraphs. Let \(\mathcal L\) be a family of graphs (hypergraphs) and ex \((n,\mathcal L)\) denote the maximum number of edges (hyperedges) of a graph (hypergraph) on \(n\) vertices which do not contain a subgraph from \(\mathcal L\). A graph (hypergraph) with \(n\) vertices containing more than \(\text{ex}(n,\mathcal L)\) edges es called a supersaturated graph (hypergraph). The problem solved in this paper is to determine the number of copies of a subgraph from \(\mathcal L\) which must occur in a supersaturated graph (hypergraph) with \(\text{ex}(n,\mathcal L)+k\) edges. There are given some lower bounds for the number of subgraphs from \(\mathcal L\) with respect to value of \(k\). In the case of ordinary graphs the characterisation of supersaturated graphs with a low number of prohibited subgraphs is given.
