This research presents new proofs of Turán's theorem and explores hypergraph densities, indicating important connections between concepts.
In this paper, we provide a new proof of a density version of Turán's theorem. We also rephrase both the theorem and the proof using entropy. With the entropic formulation, we show that some naturally defined entropic quantity is closely connected to other common quantities such as Lagrangian and spectral radius. In addition, we also determine the Turán density for a new family of hypergraphs, which we call tents. Our result can be seen as a new generalization of Mubayi's result on the extended cliques.
