Triangle-intersecting families of graphs

Abstract: A family of graphs F is triangle-intersecting if for every G, H ∈ F, G ∩ H contains a triangle. A conjecture of Simonovits and Sós from 1976 states that the largest triangle-intersecting families of graphs on a fixed set of n vertices are those obtained by fixing a specific triangle and taking all graphs containing it, resulting in a family of size 1 8 2 ( n 2 ) . We prove this conjecture and some generalizations (for example, we prove that the same is true of odd-cycle-intersecting families, and we obtain bes… Show more

“…Their famous conjecture from 1976 states that the largest family of subgraphs of K n such that any two of them contain a triangle in their intersection, is unique (up to isomorphism) and is the family consisting of all the subgraphs containing a fixed triangle. This beautiful and long-standing conjecture was proved by Ellis, Filmus, and Friedgut [3]. The unique optimum for this problem is a kernel structure, consisting of all the graphs containing a "common kernel," the fixed triangle.…”
