Ore's Theorem states that if $G$ is an $n$-vertex graph and every pair of non-adjacent vertices has degree sum at least $n$, then $G$ is Hamiltonian. A $[3]$-graph is a hypergraph in which every edge contains at most $3$ vertices. In this…

Let $r \ge 3$ be fixed and $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph. A long-standing conjecture of Gy\H{o}ri states that if $e(G) = t_{r-1}(n) + k$, where $t_{r-1}(n)$ denotes the number of edges of the Tur\'{a}n graph on $n$ vertices and $r - 1$ parts,…

Erd\"os conjectured that if $G$ is a triangle free graph of chromatic number at least $k\geq 3$, then it contains an odd cycle of length at least $k^{2-o(1)}$ \cite{sudakovverstraete, verstraete}. Nothing better than a linear bound…

The Erd\H{o}s--Gallai Theorem states that for $k \geq 3$, any $n$-vertex graph with no cycle of length at least $k$ has at most $\frac{1}{2}(k-1)(n-1)$ edges. A stronger version of the Erd\H{o}s--Gallai Theorem was given by Kopylov: If $G$…

For every $r \in \mathbb{N}$, let $\theta_r$ denote the graph with two vertices and $r$ parallel edges. The $\theta_r$-girth of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of edges of a subgraph of $G$ that can be contracted to $\theta_r$. This…

A keyring is a graph obtained from a cycle by appending $r\ge0$ leaves to one of its vertices. Sidorenko proved an Erd\H{o}s-Gallai-type theorem: Every graph of order $n$ and size more than $\frac{(k-1)n}{2}$ contains a keyring of size at…

A genus one labeled circle tree is a tree with its vertices on a circle, such that together they can be embedded in a surface of genus one, but not of genus zero. We define an e-reduction process whereby a special type of subtree, called an…

The girth of a graph is defined as the length of a shortest cycle in the graph. A $(k; g)$-cage is a graph of minimum order among all $k$-regular graphs with girth $g$. A cycle $C$ in a graph $G$ is termed nonseparating if the graph…

We show that for every $\Delta\in\mathbb N$, there exists a constant $C$ such that if $G$ is an $(n,d,\lambda)$-graph with $d/\lambda\ge C$ and $d$ is large enough, then $G^2$ contains every $n$-vertex tree with maximum degree bounded by…

Affirming a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Renyi we prove that for any (real number) c_1>0 for some c_2>0, if a graph G has no c_1(log n) nodes on which the graph is complete or edgeless (i.e. G exemplifies |G| not-> (c_1 log n)^2_2) then G…

A conjecture of Birmel\'e, Bondy and Reed states that for any integer $\ell\geq 3$, every graph $G$ without two vertex-disjoint cycles of length at least $\ell$ contains a set of at most $\ell$ vertices which meets all cycles of length at…

Erd\"{o}s-Hajnal conjecture states that for every undirected graph $H$ there exists $ \epsilon(H) > 0 $ such that every undirected graph on $ n $ vertices that does not contain $H$ as an induced subgraph contains a clique or a stable set of…

We say that $\alpha\in [0,1)$ is a jump for an integer $r\geq 2$ if there exists $c(\alpha)>0$ such that for all $\epsilon >0 $ and all $t\geq 1$ any $r$-graph with $n\geq n_0(\alpha,\epsilon,t)$ vertices and density at least…

A good edge-labelling of a simple graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for any ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. Say a graph is good if it admits a good…

A semiregular tree is a tree where all non-pendant vertices have the same degree. Belardo et al. (MATCH Commun. Math. Chem. 61(2), pp. 503-515, 2009) have shown that among all semiregular trees with a fixed order and degree, a graph with…

The Kohayakawa-Nagle-R\"odl-Schacht conjecture roughly states that every sufficiently large locally $d$-dense graph $G$ on $n$ vertices must contain at least $(1-o(1))d^{|E(H)|}n^{|V(H)|}$ copies of a fixed graph $H$. Despite its important…

Bermond and Thomassen conjectured that every digraph with minimum outdegree at least $2k-1$ contains $k$ vertex disjoint cycles. So far the conjecture was verified for $k\le 3$. Here we generalise the question asking for all outdegree…

The Strong Nine Dragon Tree Conjecture asserts that for any integers $k$ and $d$ any graph with fractional arboricity at most $k + \frac{d}{d+k+1}$ decomposes into $k+1$ forests, such that for at least one of the forests, every connected…

We study separating systems of the edges of a graph where each member of the separating system is a path. We conjecture that every $n$-vertex graph admits a separating path system of size $O(n)$ and prove this in certain interesting special…

We show that there exists an outerplanar graph on $O(n^{c})$ vertices for $c = \log_2(3+\sqrt{10}) \approx 2.623$ that contains every tree on $n$ vertices as a subgraph. This extends a result of Chung and Graham from 1983 who showed that…
