We consider two functions $phi$ and $psi$, defined as follows. Let $x,y in (0,1]$ and let $A,B,C$ be disjoint nonempty subsets of a graph $G$, where every vertex in $A$ has at least $x|B|$ neighbors in $B$, and every vertex in $B$ has at least $y|C|$ neighbors in $C$. We denote by $phi(x,y)$ the maximum $z$ such that, in all such graphs $G$, there is a vertex $v in C$ that is joined to at least $z|A|$ vertices in $A$ by two-edge paths. If in addition we require that every vertex in $B$ has at least $x|A|$ neighbors in $A$, and every vertex in $C$ has at least $y|B|$ neighbors in $C$, we denote by $psi(x,y)$ the maximum $z$ such that, in all such graphs $G$, there is a vertex $v in C$ that is joined to at least $z|A|$ vertices in $A$ by two-edge paths. In their recent paper cite{ourpaper}, M. Chudnovsky, P. Hompe, A. Scott, P. Seymour, and S. Spirkl introduced these functions, proved some general results about them, and analyzed when they are greater than or equal to $1/2, 2/3,$ and $1/3$. Here, we extend their results by analyzing when they are greater than or equal to $3/4, 2/5,$ and $3/5$.
