A tree in an edge-colored graph is said to be rainbow if no two edges on the tree share the same color. An edge-coloring of $G$ is called 3-rainbow if for any three vertices in $G$, there exists a rainbow tree connecting them. The 3-rainbow…

A path in an edge (vertex)-colored graph $G$, where adjacent edges (vertices) may have the same color, is called a rainbow path if no pair of edges (internal vertices) of the path are colored the same. The rainbow (vertex) connection number…

A linear forest is an acyclic graph whose each connected component is a path; or in other words, it is an acyclic graph whose maximum degree is at most 2. A linear coloring of a graph $G$ is an edge coloring of $G$ such that the edges in…

An edge-coloured path is \emph{rainbow} if its edges have distinct colours. An edge-coloured connected graph is said to be \emph{rainbow connected} if any two vertices are connected by a rainbow path, and \emph{strongly rainbow connected}…

Given an edge-coloured graph, we say that a subgraph is rainbow if all of its edges have different colours. Let $\operatorname{ex}(n,H,$rainbow-$F)$ denote the maximal number of copies of $H$ that a properly edge-coloured graph on $n$…

We introduce the algorithmic problem of finding a locally rainbow path of length $\ell$ connecting two distinguished vertices $s$ and $t$ in a vertex-colored directed graph. Herein, a path is locally rainbow if between any two visits of…

There has been extensive studies on the following question: given $k$ graphs $G_1,\dots, G_k$ over a common vertex set of size $n$, what conditions on $G_i$ ensures a `colorful' copy of $H$, i.e., a copy of $H$ containing at most one edge…

Given a family $\mathcal G$ of graphs on a common vertex set $X$, we say that $\mathcal G$ is rainbow connected if for every vertex pair $u,v \in X$, there exists a path from $u$ to $v$ that uses at most one edge from each graph in…

A subgraph of an edge-coloured graph is called rainbow if all its edges have distinct colours. The study of rainbow subgraphs goes back more than two hundred years to the work of Euler on Latin squares. Since then rainbow structures have…

The rainbow Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}^*(n,H)$ of a graph $H$ is the maximum possible number of edges in a properly edge-coloured $n$-vertex graph with no rainbow subgraph isomorphic to $H$. We prove that for any integer $k\geq 2$,…

We call an edge-colored graph rainbow if all of its edges receive distinct colors. An edge-colored graph $\Gamma$ is called $H$-rainbow saturated if $\Gamma$ does not contain a rainbow copy of $H$ and adding an edge of any color to $\Gamma$…

Let $G_1,...,G_n$ be graphs on the same vertex set of size $n$, each graph with minimum degree $\delta(G_i)\ge n/2$. A recent conjecture of Aharoni asserts that there exists a rainbow Hamiltonian cycle i.e. a cycle with edge set…

A rainbow matching in an edge-coloured graph is a matching such that its edges have distinct colours. We show that every properly edge-coloured graph $G$ with $|G| \ge (9\delta(G) -5)/2$ has a rainbow matching of size $\delta(G)$, improving…

A star edge coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper edge coloring of $G$ such that no path or cycle of length four is bi-colored. The star chromatic index of $G$, denoted by $\chi^{\prime}_{s}(G)$, is the minimum $k$ such that $G$ admits a star…

Given an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $d n$ for some fixed $d > 0$, the distribution $G \cup \mathbb{G}(n,p)$ over the supergraphs of $G$ is referred to as a (random) {\sl perturbation} of $G$. We consider the…
