Flag Algebras: A First Glance

Marcel K. de Carli Silva, Fernando Mário de Oliveira Filho, Cristiane Maria Sato

Published 2016-07-16Version 1

The theory of flag algebras, introduced by Razborov in 2007, has opened the way to a systematic approach to the development of computer-assisted proofs in extremal combinatorics. It makes it possible to derive bounds for parameters in extremal combinatorics with the help of a computer, in a semi-automated manner. This article describes the main points of the theory in a complete way, using Mantel's theorem as a guiding example.
