Statement

Notation as on the Theorem 1 page: f(n,H)f(n,H) is the largest number of colors on the edges of KnK^n with no totally multicolored (TMC) copy of HH, and d+1=min⁡{k(H−e):e∈E(H)}d+1=\min\{k(H-e):e\in E(H)\}, kk the chromatic number.

Theorem 3 (printed p. 635, quoted). "Let us consider a KnK^n coloured by f(n,H)f(n,H) colours and not containing TMC HH. One can subdivide V(Kn)V(K^n) into dd sets A1,…,AdA_1,\ldots,A_d (where dd was defined in Theorem 1) so that all but o(n2)o(n^2) edges joining different classes have own colours (i.e., colours used only once) and all the edges joining vertices of the same class AjA_j have o(n2)o(n^2) colours altogether, (j=1,2,…,d)(j=1,2,\ldots,d)."

The o(n2)o(n^2) terms are as n→∞n\to\infty with HH fixed.

Proof pointer

None in the paper: "The proof of this theorem will not be published here" (p. 635). The paper says it can be proved by using results of Erdős (Some recent result in extremal graph problems in graph theory, Theory of Graphs, Proc. Symp. Rome (1966), 118--123) and Simonovits (A method for solving extremal problems in graph theory, stability problems, Theory of Graphs, Proc. Symp. Tihany (1966), Acad. Press (1968), 279--319) in place of the Erdős--Simonovits limit theorem, its (1) on p. 634, and combining the method of the proofs of Theorems 1 and 2 with that of Theorem 4.
