It is well known that the set of possible degree sequences for a graph on $n$ vertices is the intersection of a lattice and a convex polytope. We show that the set of possible degree sequences for a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices is…

A $k$-uniform hypergraph $H = (V, E)$ is called $\ell$-orientable, if there is an assignment of each edge $e\in E$ to one of its vertices $v\in e$ such that no vertex is assigned more than $\ell$ edges. Let $H_{n,m,k}$ be a hypergraph,…

Every generic linear functional $f$ on a convex polytope $P$ induces an orientation on the graph of $P$. From the resulting directed graph one can define a notion of $f$-arborescence and $f$-monotone path on $P$, as well as a natural graph…

Let $d\geq 3$ be a constant and let $F$ be a $d$-regular graph on $[n]$ with not too many symmetries. By the union bound, the probability threshold for the existence of a spanning subgraph in $G(n,p)$ isomorphic to $F$ is at least…

We introduce a general method for obtaining fixed-parameter algorithms for problems about finding paths in undirected graphs, where the length of the path could be unbounded in the parameter. The first application of our method is as…

Denote by $\mathcal{H}_k (n,p)$ the random $k$-graph in which each $k$-subset of $\{1... n\}$ is present with probability $p$, independent of other choices. More or less answering a question of Balogh, Bohman and Mubayi, we show: there is a…

Consider a weighted or unweighted k-nearest neighbor graph that has been built on n data points drawn randomly according to some density p on R^d. We study the convergence of the shortest path distance in such graphs as the sample size…

We show that every pair of longest paths in a $k$-connected graph on $n$ vertices intersect each other in at least $(8k-n+2)/5$ vertices. We also show that, in a 4-connected graph, every pair of longest paths intersect each other in at…

In this paper, we study long paths and Hamiltonian paths in inhomogenous random graphs. In the first part of the paper, we consider an inhomogenous Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G_E$ with average edge density $p_n.$ We prove that if…

We generalize a result of Balister, Gy{\H{o}}ri, Lehel and Schelp for hypergraphs. We determine the unique extremal structure of an $n$-vertex, $r$-uniform, connected, hypergraph with the maximum number of hyperedges, without a…

A graph homomorphism between two graphs is a map from the vertex set of one graph to the vertex set of the other graph, that maps edges to edges. In this note we study the range of a uniformly chosen homomorphism from a graph G to the…

When solving the Hamiltonian path problem it seems natural to be given additional precedence constraints for the order in which the vertices are visited. For example one could decide whether a Hamiltonian path exists for a fixed starting…

Presented approach in polynomial time calculates large number of invariants for each vertex, which won't change with graph isomorphism and should fully determine the graph. For example numbers of closed paths of length k for given starting…

We prove the following variant of Levi's Enlargement Lemma: for an arbitrary arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ of $x$-monotone pseudosegments in the plane and a pair of points $a,b$ with distinct $x$-coordinates and not on the same pseudosegment,…

We couple projective limits of probability measures to direct limits of their symmetry groups. We show that the direct limit group is the group of symmetries of the projective limit probability measure. If projective systems of probability…

The recent theory of graph limits gives a powerful framework for understanding the properties of suitable (convergent) sequences $(G_n)$ of graphs in terms of a limiting object which may be represented by a symmetric function $W$ on…

A close relation between hitting times of the simple random walk on a graph, the Kirchhoff index, resistance-centrality, and related invariants of unicyclic graphs is displayed. Combining with the graph transformations and some other…

Hypergraphs are structures that can be decomposed or described; in other words they are recursively countable. Here, we get exact and asymptotic enumeration results on hypergraphs by means of exponential generating functions. The number of…

We study bond percolation for a family of infinite hyperbolic graphs. We relate percolation to the appearance of homology in finite versions of these graphs. As a consequence, we derive an upper bound on the critical probabilities of the…

Graph-theoretic methods have seen wide use throughout the literature on multi-agent control and optimization. When communications are intermittent and unpredictable, such networks have been modeled using random communication graphs. When…
