The limit of this density as n tends to infinity is called the inducibility of H. The exact value of this quantity is known only for a handful of small graphs and a specific set of complete multipartite graphs. Answering questions of Brown-Sidorenko and Exoo we determine the inducibility of K_{1,1,2} and the paw graph. The proof is obtained using semi-definite programming techniques based on a modern language of extremal graph theory, which we develop in full detail in an accessible setting.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-07-16T15:15:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C35" ], "keywords": [ "inducibility", "complete multipartite graphs", "extremal graph theory", "exact value", "small graphs" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1109.1592H" } } }
