Forbidden subgraph problem
In extremal graph theory, the forbidden subgraph problem is the following problem: given a graph , find the maximal number of edges an -vertex graph can have such that it does not have a subgraph isomorphic to . In this context, is called a forbidden subgraph.
An equivalent problem is how many edges in an -vertex graph guarantee that it has a subgraph isomorphic to ?
