In a recent work, Allen, B\"{o}ttcher, H\`{a}n, Kohayakawa, and Person provided a first general analogue of the blow-up lemma applicable to sparse (pseudo)random graphs thus generalising the classic tool of Koml\'{o}s, S\'{a}rk\"{o}zy, and…

The Blow-up Lemma established by Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy, and Szemer\'edi in 1997 is an important tool for the embedding of spanning subgraphs of bounded maximum degree. Here we prove several generalisations of this result concerning the…

Combining ideas of Pham, Sah, Sawhney, and Simkin on spread perfect matchings in super-regular bipartite graphs with an algorithmic blow-up lemma, we prove a spread version of the blow-up lemma. Intuitively, this means that there exists a…

Recently we have developed a new method in graph theory based on the Regularity Lemma. The method is applied to find certain spanning subgraphs in dense graphs. The other main general tool of the method, beside the Regularity Lemma, is the…

We obtain a hypergraph generalisation of the graph blow-up lemma proved by Komlos, Sarkozy and Szemeredi, showing that hypergraphs with sufficient regularity and no atypical vertices behave as if they were complete for the purpose of…

We develop a new method for constructing approximate decompositions of dense graphs into sparse graphs and apply it to longstanding decomposition problems. For instance, our results imply the following. Let $G$ be a quasi-random $n$-vertex…

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 develop a tool for embedding almost spanning degenerate graphs of small bandwidth. As an application, we extend the blow-up lemma to degenerate graphs of small bandwidth, the bandwidth theorem to degenerate graphs, and make progress on a…

In this paper we show how to use simple partitioning lemmas in order to embed spanning graphs in a typical member of $G(n,p)$. Let the \emph{maximum density} of a graph $H$ be the maximum average degree of all the subgraphs of $H$. First,…

The Szemer\'edi Regularity Lemma, in combination with the Blow-up Lemma, form the Regularity Method, a fundamental tool in graph embeddings, albeit restricted to very large and dense graphs. We propose an alternative vertex-partitioning…

In this paper we consider the problem of embedding almost-spanning, bounded degree graphs in a random graph. In particular, let $\Delta\geq 5$, $\varepsilon > 0$ and let $H$ be a graph on $(1-\varepsilon)n$ vertices and with maximum degree…

We establish a so-called counting lemma that allows embeddings of certain linear uniform hypergraphs into sparse pseudorandom hypergraphs, generalizing a result for graphs [Embedding graphs with bounded degree in sparse pseudorandom graphs,…

Blow-up in graph theory is a procedure in which each vertex is replaced by copies of itself, and two copies are adjacent if and only if the original vertices are adjacent. In this paper, we extend the concept of graph blow-up to a more…

We prove a robust version of a graph embedding theorem of Sauer and Spencer. To state this sparser analogue, we define $G(p)$ to be a random subgraph of $G$ obtained by retaining each edge of $G$ independently with probability $p \in…

We study a generalisation of the bipartite Ramsey numbers to blowups of graphs. For a graph $G$, denote the $t$-blowup of $G$ by $G[t]$. We say that $G$ is $r$-Ramsey for $H$, and write $G \stackrel{r}{\rightarrow} H$, if every…

A cornerstone of extremal graph theory due to Erd\H{o}s and Stone states that the edge density which guarantees a fixed graph $F$ as subgraph also asymptotically guarantees a blow-up of $F$ as subgraph. It is natural to ask whether this…

A graph is said to be $\mathcal{H}(n, \Delta)$-universal if it contains every graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$. Using a `matching-based' embedding technique introduced by Alon and F\"uredi, Dellamonica, Kohayakawa,…

The bandwidth theorem [Mathematische Annalen, 343(1):175--205, 2009] states that any $n$-vertex graph $G$ with minimum degree $\big(\tfrac{k-1}{k}+o(1)\big)n$ contains all $n$-vertex $k$-colourable graphs $H$ with bounded maximum degree and…

We show that every graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $\delta(G) \geq (1/2+\varepsilon)n$ is spanned by a complete blow-up of a cycle with clusters of nearly uniform size $\Omega(\log n)$. The proof is based on a recently introduced approach…
