Let H be a graph with at least one edge. Define ex (n;H), where n is an integer with n⩾∣H∣. Without assuming the Erdős-Stone theorem, show that the sequence ex(n;H)/(n2) converges as n→∞.
State precisely the Erdős-Stone theorem. Hence determine, with justification, limn→∞ex(n;H)/(n2).
Let K be another graph with at least one edge. For each integer n such that n⩾max{∣H∣,∣K∣}, let
f(n)=max{e(G):∣G∣=n;H⊂G and K⊂G}
and let
g(n)=max{e(G):∣G∣=n;H⊂G or K⊂G}.
Find, with justification, limn→∞f(n)/(n2) and limn→∞g(n)/(n2).
