Alon et. [N. Alon,E.菲舍尔,M。Krivelevich和M. Szegedy,Combinatorica,20(2000),pp. 451-476]证明了由禁止导出子图的有限集合所表征的每一个性质都是$\n $-可测试的。然而,测试的复杂性是关于1/\n $的双塔,因为已知构造此类测试的唯一工具使用Szemeredi正则性引理的变体。在这里,我们表明,任何性质的二分图,其特征在于由一个有限的禁止诱导子图的集合是$\n $-可测试的,与一些查询是多项式在$1/\n $。我们的主要工具是一个新的“条件”版本的二进制矩阵的正则性引理,这可能是有趣的本身。
Alon et. al. [N. Alon, E. Fischer, M. Krivelevich, and M. Szegedy, Combinatorica, 20 (2000), pp. 451-476] showed that every property that is characterized by a finite collection of forbidden induced subgraphs is $\epsilon$-testable. However, the complexity of the test is double-tower with respect to $1/\epsilon$, as the only tool known to construct such tests uses a variant of Szemeredi's regularity lemma. Here we show that any property of bipartite graphs that is characterized by a finite collection of forbidden induced subgraphs is $\epsilon$-testable, with a number of queries that is polynomial in $1/\epsilon$. Our main tool is a new “conditional” version of the regularity lemma for binary matrices, which may be interesting on its own.
