Abstract

In this chapter, we give nonstandard proofs of two of the more prominent results in extremal graph theory, namely the Triangle Removal Lemma and the Szemerédi Regularity Lemma.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Given a binary relation R on a set X, we write R −1 for the binary relation on X given by (x, y) ∈ R −1 if and only if (y, x) ∈ R.

  2. 2.

    Here, for \(f\in L^2(\mathcal {L}_{V\times V})\), \(\mathbb {E}[f|\mathcal {L}_V\otimes \mathcal {L}_V]\) denotes the conditional expectation of f onto the subspace \(L^2(\mathcal {L}_V\otimes \mathcal {L}_V)\).
