Abstract

For a graph G whose degree sequence is d₁, ..., d_n, and for a positive integer p, let e_p(G) = ∑_i=1 ⁿ d_i^p. For a fixed graph H, let t _p(n,H) denote the maximum value of e_p(G) taken over all graphs with n vertices that do not contain H as a subgraph. Clearly, t ₁(n,H) is twice the Turán number of H. In this paper we consider the case p > 1. For some graphs H we obtain exact results, for some others we can obtain asymptotically tight upper and lower bounds, and many interesting cases remain open.
