We prove that for each integer $r\geq 2$, there exists a constant $C_r>0$ with the following property: for any $0<\varepsilon \leq 1/2$ and any graph $G$ with clique number at most $r,$ there is a partition of $V(G)$ into at most…

For a family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, a graph $G$ is $\mathcal{F}$-universal if $G$ contains every graph in $\mathcal{F}$ as a (not necessarily induced) subgraph. For the family of all graphs on $n$ vertices and of maximum degree at most…

Let $G=(V, E)$ be a graph where $V$ and $E$ are the vertex and edge set, respectively. For two disjoint subsets $A$ and $B$, we say $A$ dominates $B$ if every vertex of $B$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $A$. A vertex partition $\pi…

Given a family $\mathcal{H}$ of graphs, a graph $G$ is called $\mathcal{H}$-universal if $G$ contains every graph of $\mathcal{H}$ as a subgraph. Following the extensive research on universal graphs of small size for bounded-degree graphs,…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is a {\it unipolar graph} if there exits a partition $V=V_1 \cup V_2$ such that, $V_1$ is a clique and $V_2$ induces the disjoint union of cliques. The complement-closed class of {\it generalized split graphs} are those…

For a graph $G$ and a set of graphs $\mathcal{H}$, we say that $G$ is {\em $\mathcal{H}$-free} if no induced subgraph of $G$ is isomorphic to a member of $\mathcal{H}$. Given an integer $P>0$, a graph $G$, and a set of graphs $\mathcal{F}$,…

The monochromatic tree partition number of an $r$-edge-colored graph $G$, denoted by $t_r(G)$, is the minimum integer $k$ such that whenever the edges of $G$ are colored with $r$ colors, the vertices of $G$ can be covered by at most $k$…

We consider the problem of partitioning a graph into a non-fixed number of non-overlapping subgraphs of maximum density. The density of a partition is the sum of the densities of the subgraphs, where the density of a subgraph is its average…

A graph $G$ is said to be an $(s, k)$-polar graph if its vertex set admits a partition $(A, B)$ such that $A$ and $B$ induce, respectively, a complete $s$-partite graph and the disjoint union of at most $k$ complete graphs. Polar graphs and…

A well-known result of R\"odl and Ruci\'nski states that for any graph $H$ there exists a constant $C$ such that if $p \geq C n^{- 1/m_2(H)}$, then the random graph $G_{n,p}$ is a.a.s. $H$-Ramsey, that is, any $2$-colouring of its edges…

The following measure of sparsity of multigraphs refining the maximum average degree: For $a>0$ and an arbitrary real $b$, a multigraph $H$ is \emph{$(a,b)$-sparse} if it is loopless and for every $A\subseteq V(H)$ with $|A|\geq 2$, the…

A coloring of a complete bipartite graph is shuffle-preserved if it is the case that assigning a color $c$ to edges $(u, v)$ and $(u', v')$ enforces the same color assignment for edges $(u, v')$ and $(u',v)$. (In words, the induced subgraph…

An \emph{$H$-packing} in a graph $G$ is a collection of pairwise vertex-disjoint copies of $H$ in $G$. We prove that for every $c > 0$ and every bipartite graph $H$, any $\lfloor cn \rfloor$-regular graph $G$ admits an $H$-packing that…
