A brief survey of extremal combinatorics and some new results for (hyper)graphs

Ruth Luo (Illinois Math)

Abstract: Extremal combinatorics is a branch of discrete mathematics which studies how big or how small a structure (e.g., a graph, a set of integers, a family of sets) can be given that it satisfies some set of constraints. Extremal combinatorics has many applications in fields such as number theory, discrete geometry, and computer science. Furthermore, methods in extremal combinatorics often borrow tools from other fields such as algebra, probability theory, and analysis. In this talk, we will discuss some benchmark results in the field as well as some recent results for extremal problems in graphs and hypergraphs.
