Let $G$ be a group and $S$ be the set of all non-trivial proper subgroups of $G$. \textit{The co-maximal hypergraph of $G$}, denoted by $Co_\mathcal{H}(G)$, is a hypergraph whose vertex set is $\{H \in S \,\, | \,\, H K = G \,\, \text{for…

A bisection of a graph is a bipartition of its vertex set such that the two resulting parts differ in size by at most 1, and its size is the number of edges that connect vertices in the two parts. The perfect matching condition and…

A Berge $k$-factor in a hypergraph is a generalization of a $k$-factor in a graph. In this paper, we study the problem of determining the values $k$ such that every $\lambda$-edge-connected $r$-regular hypergraph $\HH$ with $k|V(\HH)|$ even…

A simple graph $G$ is \emph{overfull} if $|E(G)|>\Delta\lfloor|V(G)|/2\rfloor$. By the pigeonhole principle, every overfull graph $G$ has $\chi'(G)>\Delta$. The \emph{core} of a graph, denoted $G_\Delta$, is the subgraph induced by its…

The Erd\H{o}s-S\'{o}s Conjecture states that every graph with average degree more than $k-2$ contains all trees of order $k$ as subgraphs. In this paper, we consider a variation of the above conjecture: studying the maximum size of an…

A graph $G$ is called \emph{symmetric with respect to a functional $F_G(P)$} defined on the set of all the probability distributions on its vertex set if the distribution $P^*$ maximizing $F_G(P)$ is uniform on $V(G)$. Using the…

For a fixed graph $F$, let $ex_F(G)$ denote the size of the largest $F$-free subgraph of $G$. Computing or estimating $ex_F(G)$ for various pairs $F,G$ is one of the central problems in extremal combinatorics. It is thus natural to ask how…

This paper focuses on extensions of the classic Erd\H{o}s-Gallai Theorem for the set of weighted function of each edge in a graph. The weighted function of an edge $e$ of an $n$-vertex uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is defined to a…

A bipartite covering of a (multi)graph $G$ is a collection of bipartite graphs, so that each edge of $G$ belongs to at least one of them. The capacity of the covering is the sum of the numbers of vertices of these bipartite graphs. In this…

A folklore result on matchings in graphs states that if $G$ is a bipartite graph whose vertex classes $A$ and $B$ each have size $n$, with $\mathrm{deg}(u) \geq a$ for every $u \in A$ and $\mathrm{deg}(v) \geq b$ for every $v \in B$, then…

Let $\alpha(G)$ denote the cardinality of a maximum independent set, while $\mu(G)$ be the size of a maximum matching in the graph $G=\left(V,E\right) $. If $\alpha(G)+\mu(G)=\left\vert V\right\vert $, then $G$ is a K\"onig-Egerv\'ary…

For any graph (hypergraph) $G$ with vertex set $V$ and edge set $E$, we define its incidence bipartite graph $\mathcal{I}(G)$ as the bipartite graph with bipartition $(E, V)$, where an edge $e \in E$ is adjacent to a vertex $v \in V$ in…

The extremal number of a graph $H$, denoted by $\mbox{ex}(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in a graph on $n$ vertices that does not contain $H$. The celebrated K\H{o}v\'ari-S\'os-Tur\'an theorem says that for a complete bipartite graph…

A connected graph is called a bi-block graph if each of its blocks is a complete bipartite graph. Let $\mathcal{B}(\mathbf{k}, \alpha)$ be the class of bi-block graph on $\mathbf{k}$ vertices with given independence number $\alpha$. It is…

We show that for a graph $G$ with the vertex set $V$ and the largest eigenvalue $\lambda_{\max}(G)$, letting $$ M(G) := \max_{X,Y \subset V} \frac{e(X,Y)}{\sqrt{|X||Y|}} $$ (where $e(X,Y)$ denotes the number of edges between $X$ and $Y$),…

Dirac proved that each $n$-vertex $2$-connected graph with minimum degree at least $k$ contains a cycle of length at least $\min\{2k, n\}$. We consider a hypergraph version of this result. A Berge cycle in a hypergraph is an alternating…

Classical questions in extremal graph theory concern the asymptotics of $\operatorname{ex}(G, \mathcal{H})$ where $\mathcal{H}$ is a fixed family of graphs and $G=G_n$ is taken from a `standard' increasing sequence of host graphs $(G_1,…

A graph $G$ is $[a,b]$-covered if for each edge $e$ of $G$ there is an $[a,b]$-factor containing it. For $a=b=1$, an $[a,b]$-covered graph is a matching covered graph. The structural theory of matching covered graphs constitutes a…

Given a graph $G$, two edges $e_{1},e_{2}\in E(G)$ are said to have a common edge $e$ if $e$ joins an endvertex of $e_{1}$ to an endvertex of $e_{2}$. A subset $B\subseteq E(G)$ is an edge open packing set in $G$ if no two edges of $B$ have…
