Erdős Problem #571: rational exponents for bipartite Turán numbers

For every rational α\alpha satisfying 1α<2, 1\le\alpha<2, the Lean theorem constructs some finite qq and a bipartite graph G:SimpleGraph(Finq) G:\operatorname{SimpleGraph}(\operatorname{Fin} q) such that ex(n;G)=Θ(nα) \operatorname{ex}(n;G)=\Theta(n^\alpha) as nn\to\infty. This resolves the single-graph rational-exponents conjecture. Earlier work of Bukh and Conlon proved the corresponding statement only for a finite family of forbidden bipartite graphs, and subsequent work realized many large classes of individual rational exponents. Astra's theorem covers every rational α[1,2)\alpha\in[1,2) with one forbidden graph for each exponent.
