abstract

One of the central topics in extremal graph theory is the study of the function $ex(n,H)$, which represents the maximum number of edges a graph with $n$ vertices can have while avoiding a fixed graph $H$ as a subgraph. Tur{\'a}n provided a complete characterization for the case when $H$ is a complete graph on $r$ vertices. Erd{\H o}s, Stone, and Simonovits extended Tur{\'a}n's result to arbitrary graphs $H$ with $\chi(H) > 2$ (chromatic number greater than 2). However, determining the asymptotics of $ex(n, H)$ for bipartite graphs $H$ remains a widely open problem. A classical example of this is Zarankiewicz's problem, which asks for the asymptotics of $ex(n, K_{t,t})$. In this paper, we survey Zarankiewicz's problem, with a focus on graphs that arise from geometry. Incidence geometry, in particular, can be viewed as a manifestation of Zarankiewicz's problem in geometrically defined graphs.

  1. $C_4$-free subgraphs of high degree with geometric applications

    math.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    A new dichotomy about C4-free induced subgraphs and dense patches yields optimal O(sn) bounds for geometric Zarankiewicz problems and a near-tight semilinear bound.

  2. Compact Representation of Semilinear and Terrain-like Graphs

    math.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Semilinear and terrain-like graphs on n vertices have biclique covers of size O(n polylog n), while some unit disk graphs require Ω(n^{4/3}) size.
