The stress of a vertex in a graph is the number of geodesics passing through it (A. Shimbel, 1953). A graph is $k$-stress regular if stress of each of its vertices is $k$. In this paper, we investigate some results and compute stress of…

We prove analogues for hypergraphs of Szemer\'edi's regularity lemma and the associated counting lemma for graphs. As an application, we give the first combinatorial proof of the multidimensional Szemer\'edi theorem of Furstenberg and…

We study sufficient conditions for the existence of Hamilton cycles in uniformly dense $3$-uniform hypergraphs. Problems of this type were first considered by Lenz, Mubayi, and Mycroft for loose Hamilton cycles and Aigner-Horev and Levy…

The matching number of a $k$-graph is the maximum number of pairwise disjoint edges in it. The $k$-graph is called $t$-resilient if omitting $t$ vertices never decreases its matching number. The complete $k$-graph on $sk+k-1$ vertices has…

A classical vertex Ramsey result due to Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il and R\"odl states that given a finite family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, a graph $A$ and a positive integer $r$, if every graph $B\in\mathcal{F}$ has a $2$-vertex-connected subgraph…

A graph is called $t$-tough if the removal of any vertex set $S$ that disconnects the graph leaves at most $|S|/t$ components. The toughness of a graph is the largest $t$ for which the graph is $t$-tough. A graph is minimally $t$-tough if…

Let G be a finite group and let Irr(G) be the set of all irreducible complex characters of G. Let cd(G) be the set of all character degrees of G and denote by \rho(G) the set of primes which divide some character degrees of G. The prime…

We study pseudo-geometric strongly regular graphs whose second subconstituent with respect to a vertex is a cover of a strongly regular graph or a complete graph. By studying the structure of such graphs, we characterize all graphs…

A graph has strong convex dimension $2$, if it admits a straight-line drawing in the plane such that its vertices are in convex position and the midpoints of its edges are also in convex position. Halman, Onn, and Rothblum conjectured that…

In 1973, Chv\'{a}tal introduced the concept of toughness $\tau$ of a graph and constructed an infinite class of nonhamiltonian graphs with $\tau=3/2$. Later Thomassen found nonhamiltonian graphs with $\tau>3/2$, and Enomoto et al.…

It is a famous result of Lovasz and Yemini (1982) that 6-connected graphs are rigid in the plane. This was recently improved by Jackson and Jordan (2009) who showed that 6-mixed connectivity is also sufficient for rigidity. Here we give…

Edge ideals of graphs were introduced by Villarreal in 1990, and have been the subject of many studies since then. In the same year, Fr\"oberg characterized edge ideals with regularity 2 in combinatorial terms. This result was generalized…

For a positive integer $k$, we say that a graph is $k$-existentially complete if for every $0 \leq a \leq k$, and every tuple of distinct vertices $x_1,\ldots,x_a$, $y_1,\ldots,y_{k-a}$, there exists a vertex $z$ that is joined to all of…

We say that a graph G is $(k,\ell)$-stable if removing $k$ vertices from it reduces its independence number by at most $\ell$. We say that G is tight $(k,\ell)$-stable if it is $(k,\ell)$-stable and its independence number equals…

Jamison and Sprague defined a graph $G$ to be a $k$-threshold graph with thresholds $\theta_1 , \ldots, \theta_k$ (strictly increasing) if one can assign real numbers $(r_v)_{v \in V(G)}$, called ranks, such that for every pair of vertices…

A simple and connected $n$-vertex graph has a prime vertex labeling if the vertices can be injectively labeled with the integers $1, 2, 3,\ldots, n$, such that adjacent vertices have relatively prime labels. We will present previously…

Sidorenko's conjecture states that the number of copies of a bipartite graph $H$ in a graph $G$ is asymptotically minimised when $G$ is a quasirandom graph. A notorious example where this conjecture remains open is when $H=K_{5,5}\setminus…
