✦ Synopsis
Let G be a graph on n vertices. We show that if the total number of isomorphism types of induced subgraphs of G is at most &II', where E < lo-*', then either G or its complement contain an independent set on at least (1 -4e)n vertices. This settles a problem of Erdiis and Hajnal.

Let Ex(n, k, µ) denote the maximum number of edges of an n-vertex graph in which every subgraph of k vertices has at most µ edges. Here we summarize some known results of the problem of determining Ex(n, k, µ), give simple proofs, and find some new estimates and extremal graphs. Besides proving new
Let \_(n, m, k) be the largest number \_ # [0, 1] such that any graph on n vertices with independence number at most m has a subgraph on k vertices with at lest \_ } ( k 2 ) edges. Up to a constant multiplicative factor, we determine \_(n, m, k) for all n, m, k. For log n m=k n, our result gives \_(
We show new lower and upper bounds on the maximum number of maximal induced bipartite subgraphs of graphs with n vertices. We present an infinite family of graphs having 105 n=10 % 1:5926 n ; such subgraphs show an upper bound of O(12 n=4 ) ¼ O(1:8613 n ) and give an algorithm that finds all maximal
