Improved Sidorenko bound for hypergraph Turan densities

Abstract

For every fixed integer r≥3, we prove that the Turán density of every r-uniform hypergraph F with m≥1 edges satisfies π(F)≤1−crm−(r−1)/r, where cr>0 depends only on r. This improves Sidorenko's general bound, whose gap from $1$ is of order m−1. Complete r-uniform hypergraphs show that the exponent (r−1)/r is optimal. The proof combines a potential argument for partial embeddings with the Lovász Local Lemma.

AB  - For every fixed integer r≥3, we prove that the Turán density of every r-uniform hypergraph F with m≥1 edges satisfies π(F)≤1−c_rm^−(r−1)/r, where c_r>0 depends only on r. This improves Sidorenko's general bound, whose gap from $1$ is of order m^−1. Complete r-uniform hypergraphs show that the exponent (r−1)/r is optimal. The proof combines a potential argument for partial embeddings with the Lovász Local Lemma.
