We study the Densest At-Least-$k$-Subgraph (DAL$k$S) problem, in which we are given an undirected graph $G$ and an integer $k$, and the goal is to find a subgraph of $G$ with at least $k$ vertices with maximum density. The best-known…

A $k$-truss is an edge-induced subgraph $H$ such that each of its edges belongs to at least $k-2$ triangles of $H$. This notion has been introduced around ten years ago in social network analysis and security, as a form of cohesive subgraph…

For any $m\geq 3$ we show that the Hamming graph $H(n,m)$ admits an imbalanced partition into $m$ sets, each inducing a subgraph of low maximum degree. This improves previous results by Tandya and by Potechin and Tsang, and disproves the…

The graph entropy describes the structural information of graph. Motivated by the definition of graph entropy in general graphs, the graph entropy of hypergraphs based on Laplacian degree are defined. Some results on graph entropy of simple…

We give the first almost-linear time algorithm for computing the \emph{maximal $k$-edge-connected subgraphs} of an undirected unweighted graph for any constant $k$. More specifically, given an $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph $G=(V,E)$ and a…

The hypergraph regularity lemma -- the extension of Szemer\'edi's graph regularity lemma to the setting of $k$-uniform hypergraphs -- is one of the most celebrated combinatorial results obtained in the past decade. By now there are several…

In this note, we prove that there exists a universal constant $c=\frac{43}{50}$ such that for every $k\in \mathbb{N}$ and every $d<k/2$, every $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices and with minimum $d$-degree at least…

For a fixed graph property $\Phi$ and integer $k \geq 1$, consider the problem of counting the induced $k$-vertex subgraphs satisfying $\Phi$ in an input graph $G$. This problem can be solved by brute-force in time $O(n^{k})$. Under ETH, we…

Let $G$ be a connected graph in which almost all vertices have linear degrees and let $T$ be a uniform spanning tree of $G$. For any fixed rooted tree $F$ of height $r$ we compute the asymptotic density of vertices $v$ for which the…

Given hypergraphs $F$ and $H$, an $F$-factor in $H$ is a set of vertex-disjoint copies of $F$ which cover all the vertices in $H$. Let $K^- _4$ denote the $3$-uniform hypergraph with $4$ vertices and $3$ edges. We show that for sufficiently…

We study the problem of counting $k$-hypergraphlets, an interesting but surprisingly ignored primitive, with the aim of understanding whether efficient algorithms exist. To this end, we consider color coding, a well-known technique for…

We study the problem of constructing a (near) random proper $q$-colouring of a simple k-uniform hypergraph with n vertices and maximum degree \Delta. (Proper in that no edge is mono-coloured and simple in that two edges have maximum…

We present a dichotomy theorem on the parameterized complexity of the 3-uniform hypergraphicality problem. Given $0<c_1\le c_2 < 1$, the parameterized 3-uniform Hypergraphic Degree Sequence problem, $3uni-HDS_{c_1,c_2}$, considers degree…
