In this short note, we show that for all $F$ on at least three vertices and $p \\in (0,1)$, the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ has induced $F$-density strictly less than $I(F,p).$ This provides a negative answer to a problem posed by Liu, Mubayi and Reiher.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-06-22T16:23:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "binomial random graph", "bad inducer", "finite graph", "sequence approaches", "short note" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
