The H-free process, for some fixed graph H, is the random graph process defined by starting with an empty graph on n vertices and then adding edges one at a time, chosen uniformly at random subject to the constraint that no H subgraph is…
Let $G$ be a bipartite graph without loops and multiple edges on $v\ge 4$ vertices, which can be drawn on the plane such that any edge intersects at most one other edge. We prove that such graph has at most $3v-8$ edges for even $v\ne 6$…
We present here random distributions on $(D+1)$-edge-colored, bipartite graphs with a fixed number of vertices $2p$. These graphs are dual to $D$-dimensional orientable colored complexes. We investigate the behavior of quantities related to…
One of the most basic questions one can ask about a graph $H$ is: how many $H$-free graphs on $n$ vertices are there? For non-bipartite $H$, the answer to this question has been well-understood since 1986, when Erd\H{o}s, Frankl and R\"odl…
Bipartite graphs are a fundamental concept in graph theory with diverse applications. A graph is bipartite iff it contains no odd cycles, a characteristic that has many implications in diverse fields ranging from matching problems to the…
A beautiful conjecture of Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits and Sidorenko states that if H is a bipartite graph, then the random graph with edge density p has in expectation asymptotically the minimum number of copies of H over all graphs of the same…
A word-representable graph is a simple graph $G$ which can be represented by a word $w$ over the vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices are adjacent in $G$ if and only if they alternate in $w$. It is known that the class of…
We consider constrained variants of graph homomorphisms such as embeddings, monomorphisms, full homomorphisms, surjective homomorpshims, and locally constrained homomorphisms. We also introduce a new variation on this theme which derives…
For graphs $G$ and $H$, an $H$-coloring of $G$ is an edge-preserving mapping from $V(G)$ to $V(H)$. In the $H$-Coloring problem the graph $H$ is fixed and we ask whether an instance graph $G$ admits an $H$-coloring. A generalization of this…
We expand Conlon's random algebraic construction to show that for any odd number $k \geq 3$ exists a natural number $c_k$ (the same as Conlon's) such that $\operatorname{ex}(n^a,n,\theta_{k,c_k}) = \Omega_{k,a}((n^{1 + a})^{\frac{k +…
A signed graph is a simple graph with two types of edges: positive and negative edges. Switching a vertex $v$ of a signed graph corresponds to changing the type of each edge incident to $v$. A homomorphism from a signed graph $G$ to another…
Beyond-planarity focuses on the study of geometric and topological graphs that are in some sense nearly-planar. Here, planarity is relaxed by allowing edge crossings, but only with respect to some local forbidden crossing configurations.…
Of a given bipartite graph $G = (V, E)$, it is elementary to construct a bipartition in time $O(|V| + |E|)$. For a given $k$-graph $H = H^{(k)}$ with $k \geq 3$ fixed, Lov\'asz proved that deciding whether $H$ is bipartite is NP-complete.…
The number of homomorphisms from a finite graph $F$ to the complete graph $K_n$ is the evaluation of the chromatic polynomial of $F$ at $n$. Suitably scaled, this is the Tutte polynomial evaluation $T(F;1-n,0)$ and an invariant of the cycle…
A homomorphism from a graph $G$ to a graph $H$ is an edge-preserving mapping from $V(G)$ to $V(H)$. In the graph homomorphism problem, denoted by $Hom(H)$, the graph $H$ is fixed and we need to determine if there exists a homomorphism from…
The inducibility of a graph $H$ measures the maximum number of induced copies of $H$ a large graph $G$ can have. Generalizing this notion, we study how many induced subgraphs of fixed order $k$ and size $\ell$ a large graph $G$ on $n$…
Graph homomorphism has been an important research topic since its introduction [17]. Stated in the language of binary relational structures in that paper [17], Lov\'asz proved a fundamental theorem that, for a graph $H$ given by its $0$-$1$…
Let $G$ be a graph without isolated vertices and let $\alpha(G)$ be its stability number and $\tau(G)$ its covering number. The {\it $\alpha_{v}$-cover} number of a graph, denoted by $\alpha_{v}(G)$, is the maximum natural number $m$ such…
We study the asymptotics of large simple graphs constrained by the limiting density of edges and the limiting subgraph density of an arbitrary fixed graph $H$. We prove that, for all but finitely many values of the edge density, if the…
We prove a transfer theorem for hereditary classes of $(r+1)$-uniform hypergraphs. Let $\mathcal H$ be such a class, and for $H\in\mathcal H$ write $\Delta(H)$ and $d(H)$ for the maximum degree and average degree of $H$, respectively. We…
