In 1981, Erd\H{o}s and Hajnal asked whether the sum of the reciprocals of the odd cycle lengths in a graph with infinite chromatic number is necessarily infinite. Let $\mathcal{C}(G)$ be the set of cycle lengths in a graph $G$ and let…
Alon, Balogh, Keevash and Sudakov proved that the $(k-1)$-partite Tur\'an graph maximizes the number of distinct $r$-edge-colorings with no monochromatic $K_k$ for all fixed $k$ and $r=2,3$, among all $n$-vertex graphs. In this paper, we…
For two graphs $G$ and $F$, the extremal number of $F$ in $G$, denoted by {ex}$(G,F)$, is the maximum number of edges in a spanning subgraph of $G$ not containing $F$ as a subgraph. Determining {ex}$(K_n,F)$ for a given graph $F$ is a…
Bollob\'as and Nikiforov [J. Combin. Theory, Ser. B. 97 (2007) 859--865] conjectured the following. If $G$ is a $K_{r+1}$-free graph on at least $r+1$ vertices and $m$ edges, then $\lambda^2_1(G)+\lambda^2_2(G)\leq \frac{r-1}{r}\cdot2m$,…
The Tur\'{a}n number of a graph $H$, denoted $\mbox{ex}(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph with no subgraph isomorphic to $H$. Solymosi conjectured that if $H$ is any graph and $\mbox{ex}(n,H) = O(n^{\alpha})$…
The study of uniform Tur\'an densities was initiated in the 1980s by Erd\H{o}s and S\'os. Given a $3$-graph $F$, the uniform Tur\'an density of $F$, $\pi_{\therefore}(F)$, is defined as the infimum $d\in[0,1]$ such that every $3$-graph $H$…
A graph $G$ is called universal for a family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$ if it contains every element $F \in \mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. Let $\mathcal{F}(n,2)$ be the family of all graphs with maximum degree $2$. Ferber, Kronenberg, and Luh…
Given a family of $r$-uniform hypergraphs ${\cal F}$ (or $r$-graphs for brevity), the Tur\'an number $ex(n,{\cal F})$ of ${\cal F}$ is the maximum number of edges in an $r$-graph on $n$ vertices that does not contain any member of ${\cal…
The $3$-uniform tight $\ell$-cycle $C_\ell^{3}$ is the $3$-graph on $\{1,\dots,\ell\}$ consisting of all $\ell$ consecutive triples in the cyclic order. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be either the pair $\{C_{4}^{3}, C_{5}^{3}\}$ or the single tight…
Given a locally finite graph $\Gamma$, an amenable subgroup $G$ of graph automorphisms acting freely and almost transitively on its vertices, and a $G$-invariant activity function $\lambda$, consider the free energy $f_G(\Gamma,\lambda)$ of…
We present a new approach to showing that random graphs are nearly optimal expanders. This approach is based on recent deep results in combinatorial group theory. It applies to both regular and irregular random graphs. Let G be a random…
Let $F$ and $G$ be simple finite undirected graphs. A graph $G$ is called $F$-irregular if any two of its distinct vertices belong to different numbers of copies of $F$ in $G$. According to the strong conjecture about $F$-irregular graphs…
Given two graphs $H$ and $F$, the generalized Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}(n,H,F)$ is the largest number of copies of $H$ in an $n$-vertex $F$-free graph. For every $F$ and sufficiently large $n$, we present an extremal graph for a…
Let $H$ be a graph with $\Delta(H) \leq 2$, and let $G$ be obtained from $H$ by gluing in vertex-disjoint copies of $K_4$. We prove that if $H$ contains at most one odd cycle of length exceeding $3$, or if $H$ contains at most $3$…
The total $\sigma$-irregularity is given by $ \sigma_t(G) = \sum_{\{u,v\} \subseteq V(G)} \left(d_G(u) - d_G(v)\right)^2, $ where $d_G(z)$ indicates the degree of a vertex $z$ within the graph $G$. It is known that the graphs maximizing…
Let $\Gamma(n,k)$ be the set of $2$-connected $n$-vertex graphs containing an edge that is not on any cycle of length at least $k+1.$ Let $g_s(n,k)$ denote the maximum number of $s$-cliques in a graph in $\Gamma(n,k).$ Recently, Ji and Ye…
Given two graphs $H$ and $F$, the generalized planar Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}_\mathcal{P}(n,H,F)$ is the maximum number of copies of $H$ that an $n$-vertex $F$-free planar graph can have. We investigate this function when $H$ and $F$ are…
In this paper we investigate the extremal relationship between two well-studied graph parameters: the order of the largest homogeneous set in a graph $G$ and the maximal number of distinct degrees appearing in an induced subgraph of $G$,…
For a graph $F$, let ${\rm EX}(n,F)$ be the set of $F$-free graphs of order $n$ with the maximum number of edges. The graph $F$ is called vertex-critical, if the deletion of its some vertex induces a graph with smaller chromatic number. For…
Chung, Graham, and Wilson proved that a graph is quasirandom if and only if there is a large gap between its first and second largest eigenvalue. Recently, the authors extended this characterization to k-uniform hypergraphs, but only for…
