We study sharp $p$-variational inequalities for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator on complete graphs, answering in the affirmative a question by Feng Liu and Qingying Xue. We also use computational assistance to find sharp constants in…

We study the emergence of loose Hamilton cycles in subgraphs of random hypergraphs. Our main result states that the minimum $d$-degree threshold for loose Hamiltonicity relative to the random $k$-uniform hypergraph $H_k(n,p)$ coincides with…

We investigate proper $(a:b)$-fractional colorings of $n$-uniform hypergraphs, which generalize traditional integer colorings of graphs. Each vertex is assigned $b$ distinct colors from a set of $a$ colors, and an edge is properly colored…

Degeneracy plays an important role in understanding Tur\'an- and Ramsey-type properties of graphs. Unfortunately, the usual hypergraphical generalization of degeneracy fails to capture these properties. We define the skeletal degeneracy of…

In this work limit probabilities of first-order properties of the random $s$-uniform hypergraph in the binomial model $G^{s}(n,p)$ are studied. We give a complete discription of all positive $\alpha$ such that $G^{s}(n,n^{-\alpha})$ obeys…

In this work we present a simple and efficient algorithm which, with high probability, provides an almost uniform sample from the set of proper k-colourings on an instance of a sparse random graph G(n,d/n), where k=k(d) is a sufficiently…

We prove that for $k+1\geq 3$ and $c>(k+1)/2$ w.h.p. the random graph on $n$ vertices, $cn$ edges and minimum degree $k+1$ contains a (near) perfect $k$-matching. As an immediate consequence we get that w.h.p. the $(k+1)$-core of $G_{n,p}$,…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, an {\em $H$-colouring} of $G$ (or {\em homomorphism} from $G$ to $H$) is a function from the vertices of $G$ to the vertices of $H$ that preserves adjacency. $H$-colourings generalize such graph theory notions as…

A large driver of the complexity of graph learning is the interplay between structure and features. When analyzing the expressivity of graph neural networks, however, existing approaches ignore features in favor of structure, making it…

We establish a relation between two uniform models of random $k$-graphs (for constant $k \ge 3$) on $n$ labeled vertices: $H(n,m)$, the random $k$-graph with exactly $m$ edges, and $H(n,d)$, the random $d$-regular $k$-graph. By extending to…

Let $r$ be an odd integer, and $k$ an even integer. In this note, we present $r$-regular graphs which have no $\{k,r-k\}$-factors for all $1\le k\le {r\over2}-1$. This gives a negative answer to a problem posed by Akbari and Kano recently.

Let $G$ be a connected graph, and let $b$ and $k$ be two positive integers with $b\equiv1$ (mod 2). A $[1,b]$-odd factor of $G$ is a spanning subgraph $F$ of $G$ with $d_F(v)\equiv1$ (mod 2) and $1\leq d_F(v)\leq b$ for every $v\in V(G)$. A…

For integers $k \geq 2$ and $n \geq k+1$, we prove the following: If $n\cdot k$ is even, there is a connected $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices. If $n\cdot k$ is odd, there is a connected nearly $k$-regular graph on $n$ vertices.
