How can we study large graphs? Approach: Sample small sets of vertices and examine the induced subgraphs. What graph properties can be inferred from its local profile? What are the possible local profiles of large graphs?
3
What are the possible local profiles of (large) graphs? For graphs H,G, we denote by d(H;G) the induced density of H in G, i.e. d(H;G):= The probability that |H| random vertices in G induce a copy of H.
4
Definition: Given a family of graphs, is the set of all such that, a sequence of graphs with and Problem: Characterize this set.
5
Characterizing seems to be a hard task: A mathematical perspective: Many hard problems fall into this framework. E.g. for t=1, the problem is equivalent to computing the inducibility of graph, a parameter known only for a handful of graphs. A computational perspective: [Hatami, Norine 11’]: Satisfiability of linear inequalities in is undecidable.
6
The case of two cliques is already of interest: Turan’s Theorem: Kruskal-Katona Theorem: (r<s) Minimize subject to this constraint? much harder: solved only recently for r=2: Razborov 08’ (s=3), Nikiforov 11’ (s=4(, Reiher (arbitrary s)
7
Motivation - quantitative versions of Ramsey’s theorem: Investigate distributions of monochromatic cliques in a red/blue coloring of the complete graph. Goodman’s inequality: The minimum is attained by G(n,½), conjectured by Erdos to minimize for every r. Refuted by Thomasson for every r>3.
8
A consequence from Goodman’s inequality: [Franek-Rodl 93’] The analog of this is false for r=4, by a blow up of the following graph: V = {0,1}^13, v~u iff dist(v,u) ∈ {1,4,5,8,9,11} Fundamental open problem: Find graphs with few cliques and anticliques. We are interested in the other side of
9
How big can both d(Ks;G) and d(Kr;G) be?
10
What graphs has many cliques and anticliques? Example: r=s=3. First guess: A clique on some fraction of the vertices Second guess: Complements of these graphs t1-t
11
Let r, s > 2. Suppose that and let q be the unique root in [0,1] of Then, Namely, given the maximum of is attained in one of two graphs: a clique on a fraction of the vertices, or the complement of such graph.
12
Stability: such that every sufficiently large graph G with is close to the extremal graph. Max-min: where

15
Given a graph G and vertices u,v the shift of G from u to v is defined by the rule: Every other vertex w with w~u and w≁v gets disconnected from u and connected to v. A graph G with V=[n] is said to be shifted if for every i<j the shift of G from j to i does not change G. Fact: Every graph can be made shifted by a finite number of shifting operations.
16
Lemma: Shifting does not decrease the number of s-cliques in the graph. Proof: Consider the shift from j to i. If a subset C of V forms a clique in G and not in the shifted graph S(G), then C \ {j} U {i} forms a clique in S(G) and not in G. Cor: By symmetry, shifting does not decrease the number of r-anticliques.
17
Def: A graph is called a threshold graph if there is an order on the vertices, such that every vertex is adjacent to either all or none of its predecessors. Lemma: A shifted graph is a threshold graph. Proof: Consider the following order: Cor: The extremal graph is a threshold graph.
18
Strategy: I. Reduce the problem to threshold graphs. II. Reformulate the problem for threshold graphs as an optimization problem. III. Characterize the solutions of the optimization problem.
19
Every threshold graph G can be encoded as a point in A_1 A_2 A_3 A_4 A_2k-1 A_2k
20
The densities are (upto o(1)): A_1 A_2 A_3 A_4 A_2k-1 A_2k
21
The new form of our optimization problem is: We need to prove that every maximum is either supported on x_1,y_1 or on y_1,x_2.
22
It suffices to show that for every a,b>0, the maximum of is either supported on x_1,y_1 or on y_1,x_2. Why? For both problems have the same set of maximum points.
23
Strategy: I. Reduce the problem to threshold graphs. II. Reformulate the problem for threshold graphs as an optimization problem. III. Characterize the solutions of the optimization problem.
24
Let k,r,s≥2 be integers, a,b>0 reals, and the polynomials defined above. Then,above every non-degenerate maximum of is either supported on x_1,y_1 or on y_1,x_2. (x,y) is non-degenerate if the zeros in the sequence (y_1,x_2,y_3,…,x_k,y_k) form a suffix. A_1 A_2 A_3 A_4 A_2k-1 A_2k A_1 U A_3
25
Let (x,y) be a non-degenerate maximum of f: , otherwise we can increase f by a perturbation that increases the smaller element. WLOG x_1>0, otherwise x exchange roles with y, and p with q (by looking at the complement graph). We show that x_3=y_2=x_2=0.
26
Define the following matrices: If x_3>0 and (x,y) is non-degenerate then B is positive definite.B is positive definite. For, let x’ be defined by
27
Then, If A is singular – choose Av=0, v≠0. If A is invertible – choose
28
Hence, contradicting the maximality of f(x,y). Proving y_2=0, x_2=0 is done with similar methods.
29
For the max-min theorem: Consider (a=b=1). For r=s=3, Goodman inequality and our bound completely determine the set Stability – obtained using Keevash’s stable Kruskal-Katona theorem. Stability
