A graph $G$ arrows a graph $H$ if in every $2$-edge-coloring of $G$ there exists a monochromatic copy of $H$. Schelp had the idea that if the complete graph $K_n$ arrows a small graph $H$, then every "dense" subgraph of $K_n$ also arrows…

Given two graphs $H$ and $G$, an $H$-tiling is a family of vertex-disjoint copies of $H$ in $G$. A perfect $H$-tiling covers all vertices of $G$. The Corradi-Hajnal theorem (1963) states that an $n$-vertex graph $G$ with minimum degree…

Motivated by a question of Grinblat, we study the minimal number $\mathfrak{v}(n)$ that satisfies the following. If $A_1,\ldots, A_n$ are equivalence relations on a set $X$ such that for every $i\in[n]$ there are at least $\mathfrak{v}(n)$…

A subgraph of an edge-coloured graph is called rainbow if all its edges have different colours. We prove a rainbow version of the blow-up lemma of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi that applies to almost optimally bounded colourings. A…

We prove a new sufficient pair degree condition for tight Hamiltonian cycles in $3$-uniform hypergraphs that (asymptotically) improves the best known pair degree condition due to R\"odl, Ruci\'nski, and Szemer\'edi. For graphs, Chv\'atal…

The classical theorem of Vizing states that every graph of maximum degree $d$ admits an edge-coloring with at most $d+1$ colors. Furthermore, as it was earlier shown by K\H{o}nig, $d$ colors suffice if the graph is bipartite. We investigate…

Let $\mathbf{G}:=(G_1, G_2, G_3)$ be a triple of graphs on a common vertex set $V$ of size $n$. A rainbow triangle in $\mathbf{G}$ is a triple of edges $(e_1, e_2, e_3)$ with $e_i\in G_i$ for each $i$ and $\{e_1, e_2, e_3\}$ forming a…

We show that every 3-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices and minimum vertex degree at least $(5/9+o(1))\binom{n}2$ contains a tight Hamiltonian cycle. Known lower bound constructions show that this degree condition is asymptotically…

A perfect $K_t$-matching in a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph consisting of vertex disjoint copies of $K_t$. A classic theorem of Hajnal and Szemer\'edi states that if $G$ is a graph of order $n$ with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge…

We show that every $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices whose minimum $(k-2)$-degree is at least $(5/9+o(1))n^2/2$ contains a Hamiltonian cycle. A construction due to Han and Zhao shows that this minimum degree condition is optimal. The…

A new, constructive proof with a small explicit constant is given to the Erd\H{o}s-Pyber theorem which says that the edges of a graph on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into complete bipartite subgraphs so that every vertex is covered at…

In recent years there has been increased interest in extremal problems for "counting" parameters of graphs. For example, the Kahn-Zhao theorem gives an upper bound on the number of independent sets in a $d$-regular graph. In the same…

For all integers $k,d$ such that $k \geq 3$ and $k/2\leq d \leq k-1$, let $n$ be a sufficiently large integer {\rm(}which may not be divisible by $k${\rm)} and let $s\le \lfloor n/k\rfloor-1$. We show that if $H$ is a $k$-uniform hypergraph…

Motivated by recent work on majority edge-colourings of graphs, we initiate the study of the corresponding problem for hypergraphs. First, sharpening the probabilistic argument by a $KL$ large-deviation estimate, we obtain a sufficient…
