Extremal results for random discrete structures
  We study thresholds for extremal properties of random discrete structures. We determine the threshold for Szemer\'edi's theorem on arithmetic progressions in random subsets of the integers and its multidimensional extensions and we determine the threshold for Tur\'an-type problems for random graphs and hypergraphs. In particular, we verify a conjecture of Kohayakawa, \L uczak, and R\"odl for Tur\'an-type problems in random graphs. Similar results were obtained by Conlon and Gowers.
