Since suggested by Tur\'an in 1941, determining the Tur\'an density of hypergraphs has been a notoriously difficult problem at the center of extremal combinatorics. Roughly speaking, the Tur\'an density $\pi(F)$ of a hypergraph $F$ is the threshold of the edge density above which large hypergraphs are guaranteed to contain a copy of $F$. Over the past decade, some progress was made in understanding the set of all Tur\'an densities, i.e., Π(k)={π(F):F is a k-uniform hypergraph},

as well as its variants. In this talk we discuss recent results and methods that are part of this development.



Based on joint works with Conlon; King and Sales; Li, Liu, and Sun; Liu, Wang, Yang, and Zhang; and Piga.
