In recent breakthrough results, Saxton--Thomason and Balogh--Morris--Samotij have developed powerful theories of hypergraph containers. These theories have led to a large number of new results on transference, and on counting and…
We develop a notion of containment for independent sets in hypergraphs. For every $r$-uniform hypergraph $G$, we find a relatively small collection $C$ of vertex subsets, such that every independent set of $G$ is contained within a member…
Recently the breakthrough method of hypergraph containers, developed independently by Balogh, Morris, and Samotij as well as Saxton and Thomason, has been used to study sparse random analogs of a variety of classical problems from…
We present a short and simple proof of the celebrated hypergraph container theorem of Balogh--Morris--Samotij and Saxton--Thomason. On a high level, our argument utilises the idea of iteratively taking vertices of largest degree from an…
The main result provide a common generalization for Ramsey-type theorems concerning finite colorings of edge sets of complete graphs with vertices in infinite semigroups. We capture the essence of theorems proved in different fields: for…
Recently, Balogh--Morris--Samotij and Saxton--Thomason proved that hypergraphs satisfying some natural conditions have only few independent sets. Their main results already have several applications. However, the methods of proving these…
Many important problems in combinatorics and other related areas can be phrased in the language of independent sets in hypergraphs. Recently Balogh, Morris and Samotij, and independently Saxton and Thomason developed very general container…
We prove a new, efficient version of the hypergraph container theorems that is suited for hypergraphs with large uniformities. The main novelty is a refined approach to constructing containers that employs simple ideas from high-dimensional…
A set of containers for a hypergraph G is a collection of vertex subsets, such that for every independent (or, indeed, merely sparse) set in G there is some subset in the collection which contains it. No set in the collection should be…
In this survey we describe a recently-developed technique for bounding the number (and controlling the typical structure) of finite objects with forbidden substructures. This technique exploits a subtle clustering phenomenon exhibited by…
We develop a family of simple rank one theories built over quite arbitrary sequences of finite hypergraphs. (This extends an idea from the recent proof that Keisler's order has continuum many classes, however, the construction does not…
We explore a general method based on trees of elementary submodels in order to present highly simplified proofs to numerous results in infinite combinatorics. While countable elementary submodels have been employed in such settings already,…
An edge coloring of a graph $G$ is a Gallai coloring if it contains no rainbow triangle. We show that the number of Gallai $r$-colorings of $K_n$ is $\left(\binom{r}{2}+o(1)\right)2^{\binom{n}{2}}$. This result indicates that almost all…
The method of hypergraph containers, introduced recently by Balogh, Morris, and Samotij, and independently by Saxton and Thomason, has proved to be an extremely useful tool in the study of various monotone graph properties. In particular, a…
Morris and Saxton used the method of containers to bound the number of $n$-vertex graphs with $m$ edges containing no $\ell$-cycles, and hence graphs of girth more than $\ell$. We consider a generalization to $r$-uniform hypergraphs. The…
We study the relation between the growth rate of a graph property and the entropy of the graph limits that arise from graphs with that property. In particular, for hereditary classes we obtain a new description of the colouring number,…
The graph and hypergraph container methods are powerful tools with a wide range of applications across combinatorics. Recently, Blais and Seth (FOCS 2023) showed that the graph container method is particularly well-suited for the analysis…
In this paper we study hypergraphs definable in an algebraically closed field. Our goal is to show, in the spirit of the so-called transference principles in extremal combinatorics, that if a given algebraic hypergraph is "dense" in a…
In a seminal work, K\"uhn, Osthus, Townsend, and Zhao used the hypergraph container method to determine the typical structure of oriented graphs and digraphs avoiding a fixed tournament or cycle. Their main tool, a container theorem for…
Hindman's celebrated Finite Sums Theorem, and its high-dimensional version due to Milliken and Taylor, are extended from covers of countable sets to covers of arbitrary topological spaces with Menger's classic covering property. The methods…
