Local conditions for exponentially many subdivisions

Given a graph F, let st (F) be the number of subdivisions of F, each with a different vertex set, which one can guarantee in a graph G in which every edge lies in at least t copies of F. In 1990, Tuza asked for which graphs F and large t, one has that st (F) is exponential in a power of t. We show t...

Tóm tắt:Given a graph F, let st (F) be the number of subdivisions of F, each with a different vertex set, which one can guarantee in a graph G in which every edge lies in at least t copies of F. In 1990, Tuza asked for which graphs F and large t, one has that st (F) is exponential in a power of t. We show that, somewhat surprisingly, the only such F are complete graphs, and for every F which is not complete, st (F) is polynomial in t. Further, for a natural strengthening of the local condition above, we also characterize those F for which st (F) is exponential in a power of t.
