summaryClasses with bounded expansion and nowhere dense classes are formalizations of the well-observed notions of “sparsity”, which allow many previously intractable problems to become tractable, and to be efficiently solved on real-world large networks. We discuss several aspects of the nowhere dense/somewhere dense dichotomy introduced by the authors for classes of graphs, and their connections to model theory, probability, combinatorics, and computer science.
