Abstract

We prove that for every non-trivial hereditary family of graphs P{\cal P} and for every fixed p(0,1)p \in (0,1), the maximum possible number of edges in a subgraph of the random graph G(n,p)G(n,p) which belongs to P{\cal P} is, with high probability, (11k1+o(1))p(n2), \left(1-\frac{1}{k-1}+o(1)\right)p{n \choose 2}, where kk is the minimum chromatic number of a graph that does not belong to P{\cal P}.
