Let $H$ be a fixed graph. Denote $f(n,H)$ to be the maximum number of edges not contained in any monochromatic copy of $H$ in a 2-edge-coloring of the complete graph $K_n$, and $ex(n,H)$ to be the {\it Tur\'an number} of $H$. An easy lower…
A conjecture of Erd\H{o}s from 1967 asserts that any graph on $n$ vertices which does not contain a fixed $r$-degenerate bipartite graph $F$ has at most $Cn^{2-1/r}$ edges, where $C$ is a constant depending only on $F$. We show that this…
Given integers $r > t \ge 1$ and a real number $p > 0$, the $(t,p)$-norm $\left\lVert \mathcal{H} \right\rVert_{t,p}$ of an $r$-graph $\mathcal{H}$ is the sum of the $p$-th power of the degrees $d_{\mathcal{H}}(T)$ over all $t$-subsets $T…
The generalized Tur\'an problem $ext(n,T,F)$ is to determine the maximal number of copies of a graph $T$ that can exist in an $F$-free graph on $n$ vertices. Recently, Gerbner and Palmer noted that the solution to the generalized Tur\'an…
An edge-colored graph $F$ is rainbow if each edge of $F$ has a unique color. The rainbow Tur\'an number $ex^*(n,F)$ of a graph $F$ is the maximum possible number of edges in a properly edge-colored $n$-vertex graph with no rainbow copy of…
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…
We solve a recent question of Caro, Patk\'os and Tuza by determining the exact maximum number of edges in a bipartite connected graph as a function of the longest path it contains as a subgraph and of the number of vertices in each side of…
Suppose that $R$ (red) and $B$ (blue) are two graphs on the same vertex set of size $n$, and $H$ is some graph with a red-blue coloring of its edges. How large can $R$ and $B$ be if $R\cup B$ does not contain a copy of $H$? Call the largest…
The planar Turan number $\textrm{ex}_{\mathcal{P}}(C_{\ell},n)$ is the largest number of edges in an $n$-vertex planar graph with no $\ell$-cycle. For $\ell\in \{3,4,5,6\}$, upper bounds on $\textrm{ex}_{\mathcal{P}}(C_{\ell},n)$ are known…
Given a graph $F$, the planar Tur\'an number of $F$, denoted $\text{ex}_{\mathcal{P}}(n, F)$, is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $F$-free planar graph. Such an extremal graph problem was initiated by Dowden while determining…
A classical conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os asks to determine the Tur\'an number of a tree. We consider variants of this problem in the settings of hypergraphs and multi-hypergraphs. In particular, for all $k$ and $r$, with $r \ge k…
We study Tur\'an-type extremal problems for distance graphs, motivated by work of Csikv\'ari, Bollob\'as, Tyomkyn, and Uzzell. We determine the maximum number of vertex pairs at distance three in an $n$-vertex graph with no triangle formed…
Let $f_k(n,H)$ denote the maximum number of edges not contained in any monochromatic copy of~$H$ in a $k$-coloring of the edges of $K_n$, and let $ex(n,H)$ denote the Tur\'an number of $H$. In place of $f_2(n,H)$ we simply write $f(n,H)$.…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a nonempty family of graphs. A graph $G$ is called $\mathcal{F}$-\textit{free} if it contains no graph from $\mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. For a positive integer $n$, the \emph{planar Tur\'an number} of $\F$, denoted by…
The extremal functions $ex_{\rightarrow}(n,F)$ and $ex_{\cir}(n,F)$ for ordered and convex geometric acyclic graphs $F$ have been extensively investigated by a number of researchers. Basic questions are to determine when…
The Tur\'an type extremal problem asks to maximize the number of edges over all graphs which do not contain fixed subgraphs. Similarly, the spectral Tur\'an type extremal problem asks to maximize spectral radius of all graphs which do not…
Let $\mathrm{rex}(n, F)$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph that is regular and does not contain $F$ as a subgraph. We give lower bounds on $\mathrm{rex}(n, F)$, that are best possible up to a constant factor, when…
Let ${\rm EX}(n,H)$ and ${\rm SPEX}(n,H)$ denote the families of $n$-vertex $H$-free graphs with the maximum size and the maximum spectral radius, respectively. A graph $H$ is said to be spectral-consistent if ${\rm SPEX}(n,H)\subseteq {\rm…
Let ${\rm ex}_{\mathcal{P}}(n,T,H)$ denote the maximum number of copies of $T$ in an $n$-vertex planar graph which does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. When $T=K_2$, ${\rm ex}_{\mathcal{P}}(n,T,H)$ is the well studied function, the planar…
Let $k\ge 2$ and $n_1\ge n_2\ge n_3\ge n_4$ be integers such that $n_4$ is sufficiently larger than $k$. We determine the maximum number of edges of a 4-partite graph with parts of sizes $n_1,\dots, n_4$ that does not contain $k$…
