Eero Räty, Positive discrepancy, MaxCut and eigenvalues of graphs
The positive discrepancy of a graph $G$ of edge density $p$ is defined as the maximum of $e(U) - p|U|(|U|-1)/2$, where the maximum is taken over subsets of vertices in G. In 1993 Alon proved that if G is a $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices and $d = O(n^{1/9})$, then the positive discrepancy of $G$ …
