Universality of random graphs

A graph $G$ is unversal with respect to a family of graphs $\mathcal{H}$ if every $H\in \mathcal{H}$ can be embedded into $G$. In this talk we present a partitioning lemma that helps to embed fixed graphs into the random graph $G(n;p)$. As applications we show how to derive new bounds for the edge probability $p$ for which a typical random graph $G(n; p)$ is universal with respect to some families of graphs. In particular, we improve the result of Johannsen, Krivelevich and Samotij for the universality of $G(n; p)$ with respect to the family of spanning bounded degree forests. In addition, we improve a result of Dellamonica, Kohayakawa, Rodl and Rucinski for the universality of $G(n; p)$ with respect to the family of bounded degree graphs with density $d$ much smaller than the maximum degree. Joint work with Asaf Ferber and Rajko Nenadov
