An Extension of a Result About
Convex Geometric Graph


Jesse Gilbert
Department of Mathematics, University of Colorado, Denver


Abstract:

We show a general result known as the Erdos-Sos conjecture: if |E(G)| > ½ (k − 1)n where G has order n then G contains every tree of order k + 1 as a subgraph.
