For fixed integers $r\ge 3,e\ge 3,v\ge r+1$, an $r$-uniform hypergraph is called $\mathscr{G}_r(v,e)$-free if the union of any $e$ distinct edges contains at least $v+1$ vertices. Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'{o}s showed that the maximum number…

In an $r$-coloring of edges of the complete graph on $n$ vertices, how many edges are there in the largest monochromatic connected component? A construction of Gy\'arf\'as shows that for infinitely many values of $r$, there exist colorings…

A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. A graph, together with a 1-planar drawing is called 1-plane. Brandenburg et al. showed that there are maximal 1-planar graphs with only…

We estimate the maximum possible number of cliques of size $r$ in an $n$-vertex graph free of a fixed complete $r$-partite graph $K_{s_1, s_2, \ldots, s_r}$. By viewing every $r$-clique as a hyperedge, the upper bound on the Tur\'an number…

For a real constant $\alpha$, let $\pi_3^\alpha(G)$ be the minimum of twice the number of $K_2$'s plus $\alpha$ times the number of $K_3$'s over all edge decompositions of $G$ into copies of $K_2$ and $K_3$, where $K_r$ denotes the complete…

Let K_r^- denote the graph obtained from K_r by deleting one edge. We show that for every integer r\ge 4 there exists an integer n_0=n_0(r) such that every graph G whose order n\ge n_0 is divisible by r and whose minimum degree is at least…

Let $f^{(r)}(n;s,k)$ be the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph not containing a subhypergraph with $k$ edges on at most $s$ vertices. Recently, Delcourt and Postle, building on work of Glock, Joos, Kim,…

An $r$-uniform hypergraph ($r$-graph for short) is called linear if every pair of vertices belong to at most one edge. A linear $r$-graph is complete if every pair of vertices are in exactly one edge. The famous Brown-Erd\H{o}s-S\'os…

Call a simple graph $H$ of order $n$ well-separable, if by deleting a separator set of size $o(n)$ the leftover will have components of size at most $o(n)$. We prove, that bounded degree well-separable spanning subgraphs are easy to embed:…

Let $f^{(r)}(n;s,k)$ be the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph containing no $k$ edges on at most $s$ vertices. Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'os conjectured in 1973 that the limit $\lim_{n\rightarrow…

A folklore result attributed to P\'olya states that there are $(1 + o(1))2^{\binom{n}{2}}/n!$ non-isomorphic graphs on $n$ vertices. Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, we say that $G$ is a unique subgraph of $H$ if $H$ contains exactly one…

We show that for each $k\geq 4$ and $n>r\geq k+1$, every $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph with no Berge cycle of length at least $k$ has at most $\frac{(k-1)(n-1)}{r}$ edges. The bound is exact, and we describe the extremal hypergraphs.…

A good edge-labelling of a simple, finite graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for every ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. In this paper we prove that any graph on…

In this paper we study the maximum number of hyperedges which may be in an $r$-uniform hypergraph under the restriction that no pair of vertices has more than $t$ Berge paths of length $k$ between them. When $r=t=2$, this is the even-cycle…
