Problem 1075

Erdős Problem #1075: declared status 'open'. Formalized: no. Let $r\geq 3$. There exists $c_r>r^{-r}$ such that, for any $\epsilon>0$, if $n$ is sufficiently large, the following holds. Any $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices with at least $(1+\epsilon)(n/r)^r$ many edges contains a subgraph on $m$ vertices with at least $c_rm^r$ edges, where $m=m(n)\to \infty$ as $n\to \infty$. Prize: no. Tags: hypergraphs.
