Abstract
Motivated by the work of Razborov about the minimal density of triangles in graphs we study the minimal density of cycles C5. We show that every graph of order n and size (1−1k)(n2), where k≥3 is an integer, contains at least (110−12k+1k2−1k3+25k4)n5+o(n5)
copies of C5. This bound is optimal, since a matching upper bound is given by the balanced complete k-partite graph. The proof is based on the flag algebras framework. We also provide a stability result for 2≤k≤73.
