The Structure of Typical Eye-Free Graphs and a Turán-Type Result for Two Weighted Colours

The (a,b)-eye is the graph I a,b = K a+b \ K b obtained by deleting the edges of a clique of size b from a clique of size a+b. We show that for any a,b ≥ 2 and p ∈ (0,1), if we condition the random graph G ~ G(n,p) on having no induced copy of I a,b , then with high probability G is close to an a-pa...

Summary:The (a,b)-eye is the graph I a,b = K a+b \ K b obtained by deleting the edges of a clique of size b from a clique of size a+b. We show that for any a,b ≥ 2 and p ∈ (0,1), if we condition the random graph G ~ G(n,p) on having no induced copy of I a,b , then with high probability G is close to an a-partite graph or the complement of a (b−1)-partite graph. Our proof uses the recently developed theory of hypergraph containers, and a stability result for an extremal problem with two weighted colours. We also apply the stability method to obtain an exact Turán-type result for this extremal problem.
