We show that any n-vertex graph without even cycles of length at most 2k has at most 1/2(n^{1 + 1/k}) + O(n) edges, and polarity graphs of generalized polygons show that this is asymptotically tight when k = 2,3,5.

Tibor Gallai conjectured that the edge set of every connected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into $\lceil n/2\rceil$ paths. Let $\mathcal{G}_{k}$ be the class of all $2k$-regular graphs of girth at least $2k-2$ that admit a…

A weighting of the edges of a hypergraph is called vertex-coloring if the weighted degrees of the vertices yield a proper coloring of the graph, i.e., every edge contains at least two vertices with different weighted degrees. In this paper…

We prove that every $3$-graph $H$ on $n$ vertices with minimum codegree $\delta_2(H) \geq 7n/9 + o(n)$ contains the square of a tight Hamilton cycle. This strengthens a theorem of Bedenknecht and Reiher that $\delta_2(H) \geq 4n/5 + o(n)$…

Burr and Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1976 that for every two integers $k>\ell\geqslant 0$ satisfying that $k\mathbb{Z}+\ell$ contains an even integer, an $n$-vertex graph containing no cycles of length $\ell$ modulo $k$ can contain at most a…

We consider the problem of decomposing some $t$-uniform hypergraph $G$ into copies of another, say $H$, with nonnegative rational weights. For fixed $H$ on $k$ vertices, we show that this is always possible for all $G$ having sufficiently…

We show that, for each fixed $k$, an $n$-vertex graph not containing a cycle of length $2k$ has at most $80\sqrt{k}\log k\cdot n^{1+1/k}+O(n)$ edges.

A tight $\ell$-cycle minus an edge $C_\ell^-$ is the $3$-graph on the vertex set $[\ell]$, where any three consecutive vertices in the string $123\ldots\ell 1$ form an edge. We show that for every $\ell\ge 5$, $\ell$ not divisible by $3$,…

A well-known result of Ajtai et al. from 1982 states that every $k$-graph $H$ on $n$ vertices, with girth at least five, and average degree $t^{k-1}$ contains an independent set of size $c n (\log t)^{1/(k-1)}/t$ for some $c>0$. In this…

Given $\alpha>0$ and an integer $\ell\geq5$, we prove that every sufficiently large $3$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on $n$ vertices in which every two vertices are contained in at least $\alpha n$ edges contains a copy of $C_\ell^{-}$, a tight…

In this note we prove: {\it Let $D$ be a 2-strong digraph of order $n$ such that its $n-1$ vertices have degrees at least $n+k$ and the remaining vertex $z$ has degree at least $n-k-4$, where $k$ is a positive integer. If $D$ contains a…

In this paper, we study discrepancy questions for spanning subgraphs of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. Our main result is that, for any integers $k \ge 3$ and $r \ge 2$, any $r$-colouring of the edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $G$…

An embedding of a graph in $3$-space is linkless if for every two disjoint cycles there exists an embedded ball that contains one of the cycles and is disjoint from the other. We prove that every bipartite linklessly embeddable (simple)…

A $k$-uniform tight cycle is a $k$-uniform hypergraph with a cyclic ordering of its vertices such that its edges are all the sets of size $k$ formed by $k$ consecutive vertices in the ordering. We prove that every red-blue edge-coloured…

Hajnal and Szemeredi proved that every graph G with |G|=ks and minimum degree at least k(s-1) contains k vertex disjoint s-cliques; moreover this degree bound is optimal. We extend their theorem to directed graphs by showing that every…

A $k$-uniform hypergraph is $s$-almost intersecting if every edge is disjoint from exactly $s$ other edges. Gerbner, Lemons, Palmer, Patk\'os and Sz\'ecsi conjectured that for every $k$, and $s>s_0(k)$, every $k$-uniform $s$-almost…

Given a graph $H$, the Tur\'{a}n number ${\rm ex}(n,H)$ of $H$ is the maximum number of edges of an $n$-vertex simple graph containing no $H$ as a subgraph. Let $kK_p$ denote the disjoint union of $k$ copies of the complete graph $K_p$. In…

Given two graphs $H$ and $F$, the maximum possible number of copies of $H$ in an $F$-free graph on $n$ vertices is denoted by $\mathrm{ex}(n, H, F)$. Let $(\ell+1) \cdot F$ denote $\ell+1$ vertex disjoint copies of $F$. In this paper, we…

We prove the well-known Brown-Erd\H{o}s-S\'os Conjecture for hypergraphs of large uniformity in the following form: any dense linear $r$-graph $G$ has $k$ edges spanning at most $(r-2)k+3$ vertices, provided the uniformity $r$ of $G$ is…

An $r$-uniform linear cycle of length $\ell$, denoted by $C^r_{\ell}$, is an $r$-graph with $\ell$ edges $e_1,e_2,\dots,e_{\ell}$ where $e_i=\{v_{(r-1)(i-1)},v_{(r-1)(i-1)+1},\dots,v_{(r-1)i}\}$ (here $v_0=v_{(r-1)\ell}$). For $0<\delta<1$…
