Erdős problem 533

Let δ>0\delta > 0. If nn is sufficiently large and GG is a graph on nn vertices with no K5K_5 and at least δn2\delta n^2 edges, must GG contain a set of δn\gg_\delta n vertices spanning no triangle?

The observation δ3(7)1/4\delta_3(7) \geq 1/4 of Erdős, Hajnal, Simonovits, Sós, and Szemerédi [EHSSS94], via a construction of Erdős and Rogers [ErRo62]: for every ϵ,δ>0\epsilon, \delta > 0 and all sufficiently large nn there is a K7K_7-free graph GG on nn vertices in which every triangle-free vertex set has at most δn\delta n vertices, yet which has at least (1/4ϵ)n2(1/4 - \epsilon)n^2 edges.
