Understanding graph density profiles is notoriously challenging. Even for pairs of graphs, complete characterizations are known only in very limited cases, such as edges versus cliques. This paper explores a relaxation of the graph density profile problem by examining the homomorphism density domination exponent $C(H_1, H_2)$. This is the smallest real number $c \geq 0$ such that $t(H_1, T) \geq t(H_2, T)^c$ for all target graphs $T$ (if such a $c$ exists) where $t(H,T)$ is the homomorphism density from $H$ to $T$. We demonstrate that infinitely many families of graphs are required to realize $C(H_1, H_2)$ for all connected graphs $H_1$, $H_2$. We derive the homomorphism density domination exponent for a variety of graph pairs, including paths and cycles. As a couple of typical examples, we obtain exact values when $H_1$ is an even cycle and $H_2$ contains a Hamiltonian cycle, and provide asymptotically sharp bounds when both $H_1$ and $H_2$ are odd cycles.
