Given a simplicial complex $F$ and $n\\in \\mathbb N$, the extremal number $\\text{ex}(n,F)$ is the maximum number of edges that a simplicial complex on $n$ vertices can have without containing a copy of $F$. We initiate the systematic study of extremal numbers in this context by asymptotically determining the extremal numbers of several natural simplicial complexes. In particular, we asymptotically determine the extremal number of a simplicial complex for which the extremal example has more than one incomplete layer.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-10-03T06:37:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C65", "05C35", "05D05", "05D99" ], "keywords": [ "simplicial turán problems", "extremal number", "natural simplicial complexes", "maximum number", "incomplete layer" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
