A typical problem in extremal graph theory asks to determine how many edges a (hyper)graph can have if it has a given number of vertices and no copies of a given (hyper)graph H. While this problem is well understood for most graphs, much less is known for hypergraphs. In this talk I will give an overview of the status of this problem for graphs, and present a new result in this direction about hypergraphs.

This talk is based on joint work with Nina Kamčev and Alexey Pokrovskiy, and is designed to be accessible to a general maths audience.
