We introduce a notion of a girth-regular graph as a $k$-regular graph for which there exists a non-descending sequence $(a_1, a_2, \dots, a_k)$ (called the signature) giving, for every vertex $u$ of the graph, the number of girth cycles the…

Given a plane graph $G$ (i.e., a planar graph with a fixed planar embedding) and a simple cycle $C$ in $G$ whose vertices are mapped to a convex polygon, we consider the question whether this drawing can be extended to a planar…

In this paper we study Eulerian extensions with edge constraints and use the probabilistic method to establish sufficient conditions for a given connected graph to be a subgraph of a Eulerian graph containing $m$ edges, for a given number…

The $r$-expansion of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, denoted by $H^{(+r)}$, is an $r$-uniform hypergraph obtained by enlarging each $k$-edge of $H$ with a set of $r-k$ vertices of degree one. The random Tur\'an number…

A tight cycle in an $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is a sequence of $\ell\geq r+1$ vertices $x_1,\dots,x_{\ell}$ such that all $r$-tuples $\{x_{i},x_{i+1},\dots,x_{i+r-1}\}$ (with subscripts modulo $\ell$) are edges of $\mathcal{H}$.…

We show that a graph class $\cal G$ has bounded expansion if and only if it has bounded $r$-neighbourhood complexity, i.e. for any vertex set $X$ of any subgraph $H$ of $G\in\cal G$, the number of subsets of $X$ which are exact…

In this thesis we consider ordered graphs (that is, graphs with a fixed linear ordering on their vertices). We summarize and further investigations on the number of edges an ordered graph may have while avoiding a fixed forbidden ordered…

Many hard algorithmic problems dealing with graphs, circuits, formulas and constraints admit polynomial-time upper bounds if the underlying graph has small treewidth. The same problems often encourage reducing the maximal degree of vertices…

Albertson defined the irregularity of a graph $G$ as $irr(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E(G)}|d_G(u)-d_G(v)|$. For a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, maximum degree $\Delta$, and $d=\left\lfloor \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta n-m}\right\rfloor$, we…

An $r$-uniform hypergraph is linear if every two edges intersect in at most one vertex. The $r$-expansion $F^{r}$ of a graph $F$ is the $r$-uniform hypergraph obtained from $F$ by enlarging each edge of $F$ with a vertex subset of size…

The Eulerian extension number of any graph~\(H\) (i.e. the minimum number of edges needed to be added to make~\(H\) Eulerian) is at least~\(t(H),\) half the number of odd degree vertices of~\(H.\) In this paper we consider an inhomogenous…

As an application of Szemeredi's regularity lemma, Erdos-Frankl-Rodl (1986) showed that the number of graphs on vertex set {1,2,...n} with a monotone class P is $2^{(1+o(1))ex(n,P)n^2/2}$ where $ex(n,P)$ is the maximum number of edges of an…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite graph. For $v\in V$ we denote by $G_v$ the subgraph of $G$ that is induced by $v$'s neighbor set. We say that $G$ is $(a,b)$-regular for $a>b>0$ integers, if $G$ is $a$-regular and $G_v$ is $b$-regular for every…

For $r \geq 2$, we show that every maximal $K_{r+1}$-free graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $(1-\frac{1}{r})\frac{n^2}{2}-o(n^{\frac{r+1}{r}})$ edges contains a complete $r$-partite subgraph on $(1 - o(1))n$ vertices. We also show that this is…

A graph is called an $(r,k)$-graph if its vertex set can be partitioned into $r$ parts, each having at most $k$ vertices and there is at least one edge between any two parts. Let $f(r,H)$ be the minimum $k$ for which there exists an…
