For any $r\geq 2$ and $k\geq 3$, the $r$-color size-Ramsey number $\hat R(\mathcal{G},r)$ of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{G}$ is the smallest integer $m$ such that there exists a $k$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ on $m$ edges such…

For $n\geq 3$ and $r=r(n) \geq 3$, let $\boldsymbol{k} =\boldsymbol{k}(n)=(k_1, \ldots, k_n)$ be a sequence of non-negative integers with sum $M(\boldsymbol{k})=\sum_{j=1}^{n} k_j$. We assume that $M(\boldsymbol{k})$ is divisible by $r$ for…

In this article we give the generalized triangle Ramsey numbers R(K3,G) of 12 005 158 of the 12 005 168 graphs of order 10. There are 10 graphs remaining for which we could not determine the Ramsey number. Most likely these graphs need…

One of the oldest results in modern graph theory, due to Mantel, asserts that every triangle-free graphs on $n$ vertices has at most $\lfloor n^2/4\rfloor$ edges. About half a century later Andr\'asfai studied dense triangle-free graphs and…

Chv\'atal, R\"odl, Szemer\'edi and Trotter proved that the Ramsey numbers of graphs of bounded maximum degree are linear in their order. We prove that the same holds for 3-uniform hypergraphs. The main new tool which we prove and use is an…

In this paper, we study the problem of determining the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph that contains no $(k+1)$-connected subgraph. The graph case is a classical problem initiated by Mader, central to graph…

Given an integer $k\geq 3$ and an initial $k-1$ isolated vertices, an {\em antiregular $k$-hypergraph} is constructed by alternatively adding an isolated vertex (connected to no other vertices) or a dominating vertex (connected to every…

We consider the K_4-free process. In this process, the edges of the complete n-vertex graph are traversed in a uniformly random order, and each traversed edge is added to an initially empty evolving graph, unless the addition of the edge…

The $q$-color Ramsey number of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G,$ denoted $r(G;q)$, is the minimum integer $N$ such that any coloring of the edges of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $N$ vertices contains a monochromatic copy of $G$. The…

We develop a notion of containment for independent sets in hypergraphs. For every $r$-uniform hypergraph $G$, we find a relatively small collection $C$ of vertex subsets, such that every independent set of $G$ is contained within a member…

The $r$-color size-Ramsey number of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, denoted by $\hat{R}_r(H)$, is the minimum number of edges in a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ such that for every $r$-coloring of the edges of $G$ there exists a monochromatic…

Computing the maximum size of an independent set in a graph is a famously hard combinatorial problem that has been well-studied for various classes of graphs. When it comes to random graphs, only the classical Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi-Gilbert…

For positive integers $s,t,r$, let $K_{s,t}^{(r)}$ denote the $r$-uniform hypergraph whose vertex set is the union of pairwise disjoint sets $X,Y_1,\dots,Y_t$, where $|X| = s$ and $|Y_1| = \dots = |Y_t| = r-1$, and whose edge set is…

A weakly optimal $K_s$-free $(n,d,\lambda)$-graph is a $d$-regular $K_s$-free graph on $n$ vertices with $d=\Theta(n^{1-\alpha})$ and spectral expansion $\lambda=\Theta(n^{1-(s-1)\alpha})$, for some fixed $\alpha>0$. Such a graph is called…

Let $H=(V,E)$ be a hypergraph, where $V$ is a set of vertices and $E$ is a set of non-empty subsets of $V$ called edges. If all edges of $H$ have the same cardinality $r$, then $H$ is a $r$-uniform hypergraph; if $E$ consists of all…

An independent set of size $k$ in a finite undirected graph $G$ is a set of $k$ vertices of the graph, no two of which are connected by an edge. Let $x_{k}(G)$ be the number of independent sets of size $k$ in the graph $G$ and let…

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 paper, we study the high-order phase transition in random $r$-uniform hypergraphs. For a positive integer $n$ and a real $p\in [0,1]$, let $H:=H^r(n,p)$ be the random $r$-uniform hypergraph with vertex set $[n]$, where each $r$-set…

We consider the number of independent sets in hypergraphs, which allows us to define the independence density of countable hypergraphs. Hypergraph independence densities include a broad family of densities over graphs and relational…

We introduce and study a variant of Ramsey numbers for edge-ordered graphs, that is, graphs with linearly ordered sets of edges. The edge-ordered Ramsey number $\overline{R}_e(\mathfrak{G})$ of an edge-ordered graph $\mathfrak{G}$ is the…
