Towards characterizing locally common graphs


الملخص بالإنكليزية

A graph H is common if the number of monochromatic copies of H in a 2-edge-coloring of the complete graph is asymptotically minimized by the random coloring. The classification of common graphs is one of the most intriguing problems in extremal graph theory. We study this notion in the local setting as considered by Csoka, Hubai and Lovasz [arXiv:1912.02926], where the graph is required to be the minimizer with respect to perturbations of the random 2-edge-coloring, and give a complete characterization of graphs H into three categories in regard to a possible behavior of the 12 initial terms in the Taylor series determining the number of monochromatic copies of H in such perturbations: graphs of Class I are locally common, graphs of Class II are not locally common, and graphs of Class III cannot be determined to be locally common or not based on the initial 12 terms. As a corollary, we obtain new necessary conditions on a graph to be common and new sufficient conditions on a graph to be not common.
