The well-known 1-2-3 Conjecture asserts that the edges of every graph without an isolated edge can be weighted with $1$, $2$ and $3$ so that adjacent vertices receive distinct weighted degrees. This is open in general. We prove that every…

A simple graph more often than not contains adjacent vertices with equal degrees. This in particular holds for all pairs of neighbours in regular graphs, while a lot such pairs can be expected e.g. in many random models. Is there a…

The 1-2-3 Conjecture asks whether almost all graphs can be (edge-)labelled with $1,2,3$ so that no two adjacent vertices are incident to the same sum of labels. In the last decades, several aspects of this problem have been studied in…

In this survey essay, I explore the application of the discharging method in graph theory, including the selection of charging rules and discharging rules, and the general characteristics of the discharging method. As examples, I will prove…

In a recent work, Keusch proved the so-called 1-2-3 Conjecture, raised by Karo\'nski, {\L}uczak, and Thomason in 2004: for every connected graph different from $K_2$, we can assign labels~$1,2,3$ to the edges so that no two adjacent…

A graph $G$ is $(1,3)$-colorable if its vertices can be partitioned into subsets $V_1$ and $V_2$ so that every vertex in $G[V_1]$ has degree at most $1$ and every vertex in $G[V_2]$ has degree at most $3$. We prove that every graph with…

We propose a new conjecture on hardness of low-degree $2$-CSP's, and show that new hardness of approximation results for Densest $k$-Subgraph and several other problems, including a graph partitioning problem, and a variation of the Graph…

We consider $p$-orientations, which are defined to be orientations of $d$-regular graphs such that every vertex either has in-degree $p$ or out-degree $p$. These generalise the orientations considered in Jaeger's conjecture, where $d=4p+1$.…

The discharging method is a powerful proof technique, especially for graph coloring problems. Its major downside is that it often requires lengthy case analyses, which are sometimes given to a computer for verification. However, it is much…

In 2004, Karo\'nski, \L uczak and Thomason proposed $1$-$2$-$3$-conjecture: For every nice graph $G$ there is an edge weighting function $ w:E(G)\rightarrow\{1,2,3\} $ such that the induced vertex coloring is proper. After that, the total…

Tuza's Conjecture states that if a graph $G$ does not contain more than $k$ edge-disjoint triangles, then some set of at most $2k$ edges meets all triangles of $G$. We prove Tuza's Conjecture for all graphs $G$ having no subgraph with…

The 2-Decomposition Conjecture, equivalent to the 3-Decomposition Conjecture stated in 2011 by Hoffmann-Ostenhof, claims that every connected graph $G$ with vertices of degree 2 and 3, for which $G \setminus E(C)$ is disconnected for every…

In a series of four papers we prove the following relaxation of the Loebl-Komlos-Sos Conjecture: For every $\alpha>0$ there exists a number $k_0$ such that for every $k>k_0$ every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with at least $(\frac12+\alpha)n$…
