Let $Q_d$ denote the hypercube of dimension $d$. Given $d\geq m$, a spanning subgraph $G$ of $Q_d$ is said to be $(Q_d,Q_m)$-saturated if it does not contain $Q_m$ as a subgraph but adding any edge of $E(Q_d)\setminus E(G)$ creates a copy…

Given positive integer $n$ and graph $F$, the saturation number $\mathrm{sat}(n, F)$ is the minimum number of edges in an edge-maximal $F$-free graph on $n$ vertices. In this paper, we determine asymptotic behavior of $\mathrm{sat}(n, F)$…

A convex geometric graph is a graph whose vertices are the corners of a convex polygon P in the plane and whose edges are boundary edges and diagonals of the polygon. It is called triangulation-free if its non-boundary edges do not contain…

A graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $k$ edges is $t$-edge-balanced if every graph on $n$ vertices with $t$ edges is contained in exactly the same number of subgraphs of $K_n$ isomorphic to $G$. Despite the existence of infinite families of…

For a graph G, a hypergraph H is called Berge-G if there is a hypergraph H', isomorphic to H, containing all vertices of G, so that e is contained in f(e) for each edge e of G, where f is a bijection between E(G) and E(H'). The set of all…

Given graphs $H_1, \dots, H_t$, a graph $G$ is $(H_1, \dots, H_t)$-Ramsey-minimal if every $t$-coloring of the edges of $G$ contains a monochromatic $H_i$ in color $i$ for some $i\in\{1, \dots, t\}$, but any proper subgraph of $G $ does not…

We investigate saturated geometric drawings of graphs with geometric thickness $k$, where no edge can be added without increasing $k$. We establish lower and upper bounds on the number of edges in such drawings if the vertices lie in convex…

We derive precise asymptotic estimates for the number of labelled graphs not containing $K_{3,3}$ as a minor, and also for those which are edge maximal. Additionally, we establish limit laws for parameters in random $K_{3,3}$-minor-free…

For a fixed graph $H$, a graph $G$ is called $H$-saturated if $G$ does not contain $H$ as a (not necessarily induced) subgraph, but $G+e$ contains a copy of $H$ for any $e\in E(\overline{G})$. The saturation number of $H$, denoted by ${\rm…

We study the problem of determining $sat(n,k,r)$, the minimum number of edges in a $k$-partite graph $G$ with $n$ vertices in each part such that $G$ is $K_r$-free but the addition of an edge joining any two non-adjacent vertices from…

For $S\subseteq V(G)$ and $|S|\geq 2$, $\lambda(S)$ is the maximum number of edge-disjoint trees connecting $S$ in $G$. For an integer $k$ with $2\leq k\leq n$, the \emph{generalized $k$-edge-connectivity} $\lambda_k(G)$ of $G$ is then…

A drawing of a graph is $k$-plane if no edge is crossed more than $k$ times. In this paper we study saturated $k$-plane drawings with few edges. This are $k$-plane drawings in which no edge can be added without violating $k$-planarity. For…

In a recent paper, Gerbner, Patk\'{o}s, Tuza and Vizer studied regular $F$-saturated graphs. One of the essential questions is given $F$, for which $n$ does a regular $n$-vertex $F$-saturated graph exist. They proved that for all…

A graph $G$ is called {\em$F$-saturated} if $G$ does not contain $F$ as a subgraph but adding any missing edge to $G$ creates a copy of $F$. In this paper, we consider the spectral saturation problem for the linear forest $tP_4$, proving…

For two given graphs $G$ and $F$, a graph $ H$ is said to be weakly $ (G, F) $-saturated if $H$ is a spanning subgraph of $ G$ which has no copy of $F$ as a subgraph and one can add all edges in $ E(G)\setminus E(H)$ to $ H$ in some order…

A connected graph G is 3-flow-critical if G does not have a nowhere-zero 3-flow, but every proper contraction of G does. We prove that every n-vertex 3-flow-critical graph other than K_2 and K_4 has at least 5n/3 edges. This bound is tight…

Given a graph $G$, we say a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on the same vertex set contains a Berge-$G$ if there exists an injection $\phi:E(G)\to E(H)$ such that $e\subseteq\phi(e)$ for each edge $e\in E(G)$. A hypergraph $H$ is…

Let $K^r_n$ be the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices, that is, the hypergraph whose vertex set is $[n]:=\{1,2,...,n\}$ and whose edge set is $\binom{[n]}{r}$. We form $G^r(n,p)$ by retaining each edge of $K^r_n$ independently…

We investigate the extremal properties of saturated partial plane embeddings of maximal planar graphs. For a planar graph $G$, the plane-saturation number $\mathrm{sat}_{\mathcal{P}}(G)$ denotes the minimum number of edges in a plane…

A $k$-graph $\mathcal{G}$ is asymmetric if there does not exist an automorphism on $\mathcal{G}$ other than the identity, and $\mathcal{G}$ is called minimal asymmetric if it is asymmetric but every non-trivial induced sub-hypergraph of…
