Large deviations of subgraph counts for sparse random graphs
In this talk, based on a recent joint work with Nick Cook, I will discuss recent developments in the emerging theory of nonlinear large deviations focusing on sharp upper tails for counts of a fixed subgraph in a large sparse Erdos–Renyi graph. In particular, I will explain our approach via quantitative versions of the regularity and counting lemmas suitable for the study of sparse random graphs in the large deviations regime.
