A seminal result of Hajnal and Szemer\'{e}di states that if a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices has minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge (r-1)n/r$ for some integer $r \ge 2$, then $G$ contains a $K_r$-factor, assuming $r$ divides $n$. Extremal examples…

A non-uniform hypergraph $H=(V,E)$ consists of a vertex set $V$ and an edge set $E\subseteq 2^V$; the edges in $E$ are not required to all have the same cardinality. The set of all cardinalities of edges in $H$ is denoted by $R(H)$, the set…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and let $A\subseteq \mathbb{Z}$ be nonempty. Let $D_A(G)$ denote the minimal integer such that any sequence over $G$ of length $D_A(G)$ must contain a nontrivial subsequence $s_1... s_r$ such that…

Suppose $G$ is a finite abelian group and $S=g_{1}\cdots g_{l}$ is a sequence of elements in $G$. For any element $g$ of $G$ and $A\subseteq\mathbb{Z}\backslash\left\{ 0\right\} $, let $N_{A,g}(S)$ denote the number of subsequences…

The uniform Tur\'an density $\pi_{u}(F)$ of a $3$-uniform hypergraph (or $3$-graph) $F$ is the supremum of all $d$ such that there exist infinitely many $F$-free $3$-graphs $H$ in which every induced subhypergraph on a linearly sized vertex…

A new, constructive proof with a small explicit constant is given to the Erd\H{o}s-Pyber theorem which says that the edges of a graph on $n$ vertices can be partitioned into complete bipartite subgraphs so that every vertex is covered at…

Let $c:V\cup E\to\{1,2,\ldots,k\}$ be a (not necessarily proper) total colouring of a graph $G=(V,E)$ with maximum degree $\Delta$. Two vertices $u,v\in V$ are sum distinguished if they differ with respect to sums of their incident colours,…

Tur\'an's famous tetrahedron problem is to compute the Tur\'an density of the tetrahedron $K_4^3$. This is equivalent to determining the maximum $\ell_1$-norm of the codegree vector of a $K_4^3$-free $n$-vertex $3$-uniform hypergraph. We…

We prove that the density of any covering single-insertion code $C\subseteq X^r$ over the $n$-symbol alphabet $X$ cannot be smaller than $1/r+\delta_r$ for some positive real $\delta_r$ not depending on $n$. This improves the volume lower…

In this paper, we extend two classical results about the density of subgraphs of hypercubes to subgraphs $G$ of Cartesian products $G_1\times\cdots\times G_m$ of arbitrary connected graphs. Namely, we show that $\frac{|E(G)|}{|V(G)|}\le…

We investigate the \textit{group irregularity strength}, $s_g(G)$, of a graph, i.e. the least integer $k$ such that taking any Abelian group $\mathcal{G}$ of order $k$, there exists a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow \mathcal{G}$ so that the…

The Ramsey number $r(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the smallest integer $n$ such that any $2$ colouring of the edges of a clique on $n$ vertices contains a monochromatic copy of $G$. Determining the Ramsey number of $G$ is a central problem of…

A $(2,1)$-total labeling of a graph $G$ is an assignment $f$ from the vertex set $V(G)$ and the edge set $E(G)$ to the set $\{0,1,...,k\}$ of nonnegative integers such that $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 2$ if $x$ is a vertex and $y$ is an edge incident…

The following very natural problem was raised by Chung and Erd\H{o}s in the early 80's and has since been repeated a number of times. What is the minimum of the Tur\'an number $\text{ex}(n,\mathcal{H})$ among all $r$-graphs $\mathcal{H}$…

Given a simple graph $G$, the {\it irregularity strength} of $G$, denoted by $s(G)$, is the least positive integer $k$ such that there is a weight assignment on edges $f: E(G) \to \{1,2,\dots, k\}$ attributing distinct weighted degrees:…

We consider finite simple graphs. Given a graph $H$ and a positive integer $n,$ the Tur\'{a}n number of $H$ for the order $n,$ denoted ${\rm ex}(n,H),$ is the maximum size of a graph of order $n$ not containing $H$ as a subgraph. Erd\H{o}s…

We study the codegree Tur\'an density of $\mathcal{C}_\ell^r$, the $r$-uniform hypergraph tight cycle of length $\ell$. A result of Han, Lo, and Sanhueza-Matamala states that if $\ell$ is sufficiently large and $r/\gcd(r,\ell)$ is even,…
