Density Theorems for Bipartite Graphs and Related Ramsey-Type Results
Benny Sudakov
10:30am|S-101

In this talk, we discuss a new technique which shows how to find a copy of a sparse bipartite graph in a graph of positive density. Our results imply several new bounds for classical problems in Ramsey theory and improve and generalize earlier...

On a Network Creation Game
Yishay Mansour
11:15am|S-101

A network creation game abstracts a network construction by selfish agent who build a network by buying links to each other. Each player pays a fixed cost per link, and suffers an additional communication cost (which is the sum of distances to the...
