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…

We say that a graph $G$ is anti-Ramsey for a graph $H$ if any proper edge-colouring of $G$ yields a rainbow copy of $H$, i.e. a copy of $H$ whose edges all receive different colours. In this work we determine the threshold at which the…

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 and has been the focus of extensive…

Let $G_1, G_2, ..., G_t$ be graphs. The multicolor Ramsey number $R(G_1, G_2, ..., G_t)$ is the smallest positive integer $n$ such that if the edges of complete graph $K_n$ are partitioned into $t$ disjoint color classes giving $t$ graphs…

The bipartite Ramsey number $b(s,t)$ is the smallest integer $n$ such that every blue-red edge coloring of $K_{n,n}$ contains either a blue $K_{s,s}$ or a red $K_{t,t}$. In the bipartite $K_{2,2}$-free process, we begin with an empty graph…

Given bipartite graphs $H_1$, \dots , $H_k$, the bipartite Ramsey number $br(H_1,\dots, H_k)$ is the minimum integer $N$ such that any $k$-edge-coloring of complete bipartite graph $K_{N, N}$ contains a monochromatic $H_i$ in color $i$ for…

In his study of graph codes, Alon introduced the concept of the odd-Ramsey number of a family of graphs $\mathcal{H}$ in $K_n$, defined as the minimum number of colours needed to colour the edges of $K_n$ so that every copy of a graph $H\in…

We call a $4$-cycle in $K_{n_{1}, n_{2}, n_{3}}$ multipartite, denoted by $C_{4}^{\text{multi}}$, if it contains at least one vertex in each part of $K_{n_{1}, n_{2}, n_{3}}$. The Tur\'an number $\text{ex}(K_{n_{1},n_{2},n_{3}},…

Let $g(n)$ be the least number such that every collection of $n$ matchings, each of size at least $g(n)$, in a bipartite graph, has a full rainbow matching. Aharoni and Berger \cite{AhBer} conjectured that $g(n)=n+1$ for every $n>1$. This…

An edge-colored graph $G$ is called \textit{rainbow} if every edge of $G$ receives a different color. Given any host graph $G$, the \textit{anti-Ramsey} number of $t$ edge-disjoint rainbow spanning trees in $G$, denoted by $r(G,t)$, is…

Given an edge colouring of a graph with a set of $m$ colours, we say that the graph is (exactly) $m$-coloured if each of the colours is used. We consider edge colourings of the complete graph on $\mathbb{N}$ with infinitely many colours and…

We consider $m$-colorings of the edges of a complete graph, where each color class is defined semi-algebraically with bounded complexity. The case $m = 2$ was first studied by Alon et al., who applied this framework to obtain surprisingly…

The anti-Ramsey number of a graph $G$, introduced by Erd\H{o}s et al.\ in 1975, is the maximum number of colors in an edge-coloring of the complete graph $K_n$ that avoids a rainbow copy of $G$. We call a subset of edges of $G$…
