Abstract

Let C(n) denote the maximum number of induced copies of 5-cycles in graphs on n vertices. For n large enough, we show that C(n)=a.b.c.d.e+C(a)+C(b)+C(c)+C(d)+C(e), where a+b+c+d+e=n and a,b,c, d, e are as equal as possible.

Moreover, for n a power of 5, we show that the unique graph on n vertices maximizing the number of induced 5-cycles is an iterated blow-up of a 5-cycle. The proof uses flag algebra computations and stability methods.
