    An approximate version of the Loebl-Komlos-Sos conjecture

    Get PDF
    Loebl, Komlos, and Sos conjectured that if at least half of the vertices of a graph G have degree at least some natural number k, then every tree with at most k edges is a subgraph of G. Our main result is an approximate version of this conjecture for large enough n=|V(G)|, assumed that n=O(k). Our result implies an asymptotic bound for the Ramsey number of trees. We prove that r(T_k,T_m)\leq k+m+o(k+m),as k+m tends to infinity.Comment: 29 pages, 6 figures, referees' comments incorporate

    An extension of Tur\'an's Theorem, uniqueness and stability

    Get PDF
    We determine the maximum number of edges of an nn-vertex graph GG with the property that none of its rr-cliques intersects a fixed set M⊂V(G)M\subset V(G). For (r−1)∣M∣≥n(r-1)|M|\ge n, the (r−1)(r-1)-partite Turan graph turns out to be the unique extremal graph. For (r−1)∣M∣<n(r-1)|M|<n, there is a whole family of extremal graphs, which we describe explicitly. In addition we provide corresponding stability results.Comment: 12 pages, 1 figure; outline of the proof added and other referee's comments incorporate

    A density Corr\'adi-Hajnal Theorem

    Get PDF
    We find, for all sufficiently large nn and each kk, the maximum number of edges in an nn-vertex graph which does not contain k+1k+1 vertex-disjoint triangles. This extends a result of Moon [Canad. J. Math. 20 (1968), 96-102] which is in turn an extension of Mantel's Theorem. Our result can also be viewed as a density version of the Corradi-Hajnal Theorem.Comment: 41 pages (including 11 pages of appendix), 4 figures, 2 table
