Title: Sparse graphs with forbidden induced subgraphs and the Erdos-Hajnal conjecture

Abstract:

A graph G is called H-free if it does not contain H as an induced subgraph, i.e. H cannot be obtained from G by deleting vertices. A famous conjecture due to Erdos and Hajnal states that for every graph H, there is a constant c > 0 such that in every n-vertex H-free graph G, there is a set of nc vertices that are either all pairwise adjacent or all pairwise non-adjacent.
