Turán’s theorem inverted

In this note we complete an investigation started by Erd?s in 1963 that aims to find the strongest possible conclusion from the hypothesis of Turán’s theorem in extremal graph theory.Let be the complete r-partite graph with parts of sizes s₁≥2,s₂,…,s_r with an edge added to the first part. Letting t_r(n) be the number of edges of the r-partite Turán graph of order n, we prove that:For all r≥2 and all sufficiently small c>0, every graph of sufficiently large order n with t_r(n)+1 edges contains a .We also give a corresponding stability theorem and two supporting results of wider scope.
