An ordered $r$-matching is an $r$-uniform hypergraph matching equipped with an ordering on its vertices. These objects can be viewed as natural generalisations of $r$-dimensional orders. The theory of ordered 2-matchings is well-developed…
We present a polynomial-time $\frac{3}{2}$-approximation algorithm for the problem of finding a maximum-cardinality stable matching in a many-to-many matching model with ties and laminar constraints on both sides. We formulate our problem…
Given positive integers k and r where 4 divides k and k/2 \leq r \leq k-1, we give a minimum r-degree condition that ensures a perfect matching in a k-uniform hypergraph. This condition is best possible and improves on work of Pikhurko who…
We generalize the stable graph regularity lemma of Malliaris and Shelah to the case of finite structures in finite relational languages, e.g., finite hypergraphs. We show that under the model-theoretic assumption of stability, such a…
In this paper, we make progress on a question related to one of Galvin that has attracted substantial attention recently. The question is that of determining among all graphs $G$ with $n$ vertices and $\Delta(G)\leq r$, which has the most…
We specify a class of graphs, $H_t$, and characterize the irreducible decomposition of all powers of the cover ideals. This gives insight into the structure and stabilization of the corresponding associated primes; specifically, providing…
We prove that there is a constant $c >0$, such that whenever $p \ge n^{-c}$, with probability tending to 1 when $n$ goes to infinity, every maximum triangle-free subgraph of the random graph $G_{n,p}$ is bipartite. This answers a question…
The degree diameter problem asks for the maximum possible number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ and diameter $D$. In this paper, we focus on planar graphs of diameter $3$. Fellows, Hell and Seyffarth (1995) proved that…
In 2010, Mkrtchyan, Petrosyan and Vardanyan proved that every graph $G$ with $2\leq \delta(G)\leq \Delta(G)\leq 3$ contains a maximum matching whose unsaturated vertices do not have a common neighbor, where $\Delta(G)$ and $\delta(G)$…
We show that for all $k\geq 4$, $\varepsilon >0$, and $n$ sufficiently large, every $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices in which each set of $k-3$ vertices is contained in at least $(5/8 + \varepsilon) \binom{n}{3}$ edges contains a…
Deciding whether a planar graph (even of maximum degree $4$) is $3$-colorable is NP-complete. Determining subclasses of planar graphs being $3$-colorable has a long history, but since Gr\"{o}tzsch's result that triangle-free planar graphs…
An embedding of a graph in $3$-space is linkless if for every two disjoint cycles there exists an embedded ball that contains one of the cycles and is disjoint from the other. We prove that every bipartite linklessly embeddable (simple)…
We investigate terminal-pairability properties of complete graphs and improve the known bounds in two open problems. We prove that the complete graph $K_n$ on $n$ vertices is terminal-pairable if the maximum degree $\Delta$ of the…
The aim of the present paper is to prove that the maximum number of edges in a 3-uniform hypergraph on n vertices and matching number s is max{\binom(3s+2,3), \binom(n,3) - \binom(n-s,3)} for all n,s, n >= 3s+2.
A fundamental barrier in extremal hypergraph theory is the presence of many near-extremal constructions with very different structures. Indeed, the classical constructions due to Kostochka imply that the notorious extremal problem for the…
Given a real $\mu\geq 1$, a graph $H$ is $\mu$-almost-regular if $\Delta(H)\leq \mu \delta(H)$. The celebrated regularization theorem of Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits states that for every real $0<\varepsilon<1$ there exists a real…
We study properties of random subcomplexes of partitions returned by (a suitable form of) the Strong Hypergraph Regularity Lemma, which we call regular slices. We argue that these subcomplexes capture many important structural properties of…
We present the first data structures that maintain near optimal maximum cardinality and maximum weighted matchings on sparse graphs in sublinear time per update. Our main result is a data structure that maintains a $(1+\epsilon)$…
In this paper, we show that every graph with $m$ edges admits a 3-partition such that \[ \max_{1 \leq i \leq 3} e(V_i) \leq \frac{m}{9} + \frac{1}{9}h(m) \quad \text{and} \quad e(V_1, V_2, V_3) \geq \frac{2}{3}m + \frac{1}{3}h(m), \] where…
We introduce the following combinatorial problem. Let $G$ be a triangle-free regular graph with edge density $\rho$. What is the minimum value $a(\rho)$ for which there always exist two non-adjacent vertices such that the density of their…
