Burr–Erdős conjecture for degenerate graphs

About 19 years old · traced to

Let d∈Nd\in\mathbb{N}. A graph is dd-degenerate when its vertices admit an ordering in which every vertex has at most dd neighbors earlier in the ordering. Burr–Erdős conjecture. There exists c=c(d)>0c=c(d)>0 such that every 22-edge-colored KnK_n contains a copy of every dd-degenerate graph on at most cncn vertices. The source states that this conjecture was recently confirmed by Lee, so the result is solved.
