18.217 Graph Theory and Additive Combinatorics

18.217 Graph Theory and Additive Combinatorics (Fall 2019, MIT OCW). Instructor: Professor Yufei Zhao. This course examines classical and modern developments in graph theory and additive combinatorics, with a focus on topics and themes that connect the two subjects. The course also introduces students to current research topics and open problems. (from ocw.mit.edu)

Lecture 17 - Graph Limits IV: Inequalities between Subgraph Densities

Among all graphs with a given edge density, which graph has the maximum/minimum triangle density? Professor Zhao explains extremal problems on subgraph densities using the framework of graph limits.
