Reconstructibility of the $K_r$-count from $n-1$ cards
Abstract
The Reconstruction Conjecture of Kelly and Ulam states that any graph with vertices can be reconstructed from the multiset of unlabelled subgraphs for all . We refer to as the \emph{deck} of and as the cards of . This was posed in the 1940s and is still wide open today. In an effort to understand reconstructibility better, a growing collection of research is concerned with understanding what properties of can be reconstructed from a (potentially adversarially chosen) collection of cards for some . In this paper, we show that the clique count of is reconstructible for all but one size of clique from any cards. We extend this result by showing that for graphs with average degree at most we can reconstruct the -count for all , and that for we can reconstruct the -count for every graph on vertices.
