An $r$-uniform hypergraph is uniquely $k$-colorable if there exists exactly one partition of its vertex set into $k$ parts such that every edge contains at most one vertex from each part. For integers $k \ge r \ge 2$, let $\Phi_{k,r}$…
A $1-$factorization of a complete graph on $2n$ vertices is said to be $G-$regular if it posseses an automorphism group $G$ acting sharply transitively on the vertex-set. The problem of determining which groups can realize such a situation…
A numerical semigroup $S$ is an additively-closed set of non-negative integers, and a factorization of an element $n$ of $S$ is an expression of $n$ as a sum of generators of $S$. It is known that for a given numerical semigroup $S$, the…
A graph of order $n$ is $p$-factor-critical, where $p$ is an integer of the same parity as $n$, if the removal of any set of $p$ vertices results in a graph with a perfect matching. 1-factor-critical graphs and 2-factor-critical graphs are…
The unique prime factorization theorem is used to show the existence of a function on a countable set $\mathcal{X}$ so that the sum aggregator function is injective on all multisets of $\mathcal{X}$ of finite size.
Let $G$ denote a graph and $k\geq2$ be an integer. A $\{K_{1,1},K_{1,2},\ldots,K_{1,k},\mathcal{T}(2k+1)\}$-factor of $G$ is a spanning subgraph, whose every connected component is isomorphic to an element of…
For a positive integer $k$ and a graph $H$ on $k$ vertices, we are interested in the inducibility of $H$, denoted $\mathrm{ind}(H)$, which is defined as the maximum possible probability that choosing $k$ vertices uniformly at random from a…
Let $ex_r(N,g)$ be the maximum number of edges in an $r$-uni\-form hypergraph on $N$ vertices with girth at least $g$. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior of this value when $N$ is increasing but parameters $g\in\{6,8\}$ and…
We show that for any constant $\Delta \ge 2$, there exists a graph $G$ with $O(n^{\Delta / 2})$ vertices which contains every $n$-vertex graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ as an induced subgraph. For odd $\Delta$ this significantly improves…
A perfect $1$-factorisation of a graph is a decomposition of that graph into $1$-factors such that the union of any two $1$-factors is a Hamiltonian cycle. A Latin square of order $n$ is row-Hamiltonian if for every pair $(r,s)$ of distinct…
For $r:=(r_1,\dots,r_k)$, an $r$-factorization of the complete $\lambda$-fold $h$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $\lambda K_n^h$ is a partition of (the edges of) $\lambda K_n^h$ into $F_1,\dots, F_k$ such that for $i=1,\dots,k$, $F_i$ is…
In this paper, we obtain several new factorization results for certain classes of polynomials having integer coefficients. In doing so, we use the information about prime factorization of the value taken up by such polynomials and their…
A subgraph $H$ of a graph $G$ is isometric if the distances between vertices in $H$ coincide with the distances between the corresponding vertices in $G$. We show that for any integer $n\ge 1$, there is a graph on $3^{n+O(\log^2 n)}$…
A graph is called equimatchable if all of its maximal matchings have the same size. Due to Eiben and Kotrb\v{c}\'{i}k,, any connected graph with odd order and independence number $\alpha(G)$ at most $2$ is equimatchable. Akbari et al.…
The celebrated Andr\'{a}sfai--Erd\H{o}s--S\'{o}s Theorem from 1974 shows that every $n$-vertex triangle-free graph with minimum degree greater than $2n/5$ must be bipartite. We establish a positive codegree extension of this result for the…
We determine, up to a multiplicative constant, the optimal number of random edges that need to be added to a $k$-graph $H$ with minimum vertex degree $\Omega(n^{k-1})$ to ensure an $F$-factor with high probability, for any $F$ that belongs…
Let $f(n)$ be the smallest number such that every collection of $n$ matchings, each of size at least $f(n)$, in a bipartite graph, has a full rainbow matching. Generalizing famous conjectures of Ryser, Brualdi and Stein, Aharoni and Berger…
For a graph $G=(V,E)$, let $bc(G)$ denote the minimum number of pairwise edge disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ so that each edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one of them. It is easy to see that for every graph $G$, $bc(G) \leq n…
For a given graph $R$, a graph $G$ is $R$-free if $G$ does not contain $R$ as an induced subgraph. It is known that every $2$-tough graph with at least three vertices has a $2$-factor. In graphs with restricted structures, it was shown that…
Let $G$ be a $q$-regular bipartite graph with bipartition $(U,V)$. It was proved by Lu, Wang, and Yan in 2020 that $G$ has a spanning subgraph $H$ such that each vertex of $U$ has degree 1 in $H$, and each vertex of $V$ has degree distinct…
