We consider the problem of detecting a community of densely connected vertices in a high-dimensional bipartite graph of size $n_1 \times n_2$. Under the null hypothesis, the observed graph is drawn from a bipartite Erdős-Renyi distribution with connection probability $p_0$. Under the alternative hypothesis, there exists an unknown bipartite subgraph of size $k_1 \times k_2$ in which edges appear with probability $p_1 = p_0 + δ$ for some $δ> 0$, while all other edges outside the subgraph appear with probability $p_0$. Specifically, we provide non-asymptotic upper and lower bounds on the smallest signal strength $δ^*$ that is both necessary and sufficient to ensure the existence of a test with small enough type one and type two errors. We also derive novel minimax-optimal tests achieving these fundamental limits when the underlying graph is sufficiently dense. Our proposed tests involve a combination of hard-thresholded nonlinear statistics of the adjacency matrix, the analysis of which may be of independent interest. In contrast with previous work, our non-asymptotic upper and lower bounds match for any configuration of $n_1,n_2, k_1,k_2$.
