A $3$-uniform hypergraph is a generalization of simple graphs where each hyperedge is a subset of vertices of size $3$. The degree of a vertex in a hypergraph is the number of hyperedges incident with it. The degree sequence of a hypergraph…

We prove that any k-uniform hypergraph on n vertices with minimum degree at least n/(2(k-1))+o(n) contains a loose Hamilton cycle. The proof strategy is similar to that used by K\"uhn and Osthus for the 3-uniform case. Though some…

An oriented graph is a digraph that contains no 2-cycles, i.e., there is at most one arc between any two vertices. We show that every oriented graph $G$ of sufficiently large order $n$ with $\mathrm{deg}^+(x) +\mathrm{deg}^{-}(y)\geq…

A $k$-uniform tight cycle is a $k$-graph with a cyclic order of its vertices such that every $k$ consecutive vertices from an edge. We show that for $k\geq 3$, every red-blue edge-coloured complete $k$-graph on $n$ vertices contains $k$…

The Lagrangian density of an $r$-uniform hypergraph $F$ is $r!$ multiplying the supremum of the Lagrangians of all $F$-free $r$-uniform hypergraphs. For an $r$-graph $H$ with $t$ vertices, it is clear that $\pi_{\lambda}(H)\ge…

The spectral analogue of the Tur\'{a}n type problem for hypergraphs is to determine the maximum spectral radius for the hypergraphs of order $n$ that do not contain a given hypergraph. For the hypergraphs among the set of the connected…

We determine the minimum vertex degree that ensures a perfect matching in a 3-uniform hypergraph. More precisely, suppose that H is a sufficiently large 3-uniform hypergraph whose order n is divisible by 3. If the minimum vertex degree of H…

A famous conjecture of Erd\H{o}s asserts that for $k\ge 3$, the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph without $s+1$ pairwise disjoint edges is $\max\{\binom{n}{k}-\binom{n-s}{k},\binom{sk+k-1}{k}\}$. This problem…

Recently, Zhang and Wu proved a conjecture of Kalai and Meshulam, showing that for every graph $G$ without induced cycles of length divisible by $3$, the sum of all reduced Betti numbers of its independence complex $I(G)$ is at most $1$. We…

It is well known that the set of possible degree sequences for a graph on $n$ vertices is the intersection of a lattice and a convex polytope. We show that the set of possible degree sequences for a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices is…

We prove that every $n$-vertex planar graph $G$ with no triangle sharing an edge with a 4-cycle has independence ratio $n/\alpha(G) \leq 4 - \varepsilon$ for $\varepsilon = 1/30$. This result implies that the same bound holds for…

It was conjectured by Steinberg in 1976 that planar graphs without cycles of length 4 or 5 are 3-colorable. This conjecture attracted a substantial amount of attention and was finally refuted by Cohen-Addad, Hebdige, Kr\'{a}l', Li and…

Dirac proved that each $n$-vertex $2$-connected graph with minimum degree $k$ contains a cycle of length at least $\min\{2k, n\}$. We obtain analogous results for Berge cycles in hypergraphs. Recently, the authors proved an exact lower…

A graph is $H$-free if it has no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$. We characterize all graphs $H$ for which there are only finitely many minimal non-three-colorable $H$-free graphs. Such a characterization was previously known only in the…

We investigate minimum vertex degree conditions for $3$-uniform hypergraphs which ensure the existence of loose Hamilton cycles. A loose Hamilton cycle is a spanning cycle in which only consecutive edges intersect and these intersections…

A hypergraph is said to be properly 2-colorable if there exists a 2-coloring of its vertices such that no hyperedge is monochromatic. On the other hand, a hypergraph is called non-2-colorable if there exists at least one monochromatic…

Given two $k$-uniform hypergraphs $F$ and $G$, we say that $G$ has an $F$-covering if every vertex in $G$ is contained in a copy of $F$. For $1\le i \le k-1$, let $c_i(n,F)$ be the least integer such that every $n$-vertex $k$-uniform…

A hypergraph is "$d$-degenerate" if every subhypergraph has a vertex of degree at most $d$. A greedy algorithm colours every such hypergraph with at most $d+1$ colours. We show that this bound is tight, by constructing an $r$-uniform…
