Fox–Sudakov polynomial Rödl conjecture
Fox–Sudakov polynomial Rödl conjecture
Let be a graph. For a graph , a vertex set is -homogeneous if the edge density of the induced graph is at most or at least .
Fox–Sudakov's conjecture. For any graph there exists a such that for any any -vertex -free graph contains an -homogeneous set with at least vertices.
This is a polynomial quantitative strengthening of Rödl's theorem and implies the Erdős–Hajnal conjecture for each fixed graph . The source presents it as an open conjecture, while the paper proves equivalence with the Erdős–Hajnal and polynomial Nikiforov conjectures.
