A $K_r$-factor of a graph $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint $r$-cliques covering $V(G)$. We prove the following algorithmic version of the classical Hajnal--Szemer\'edi Theorem in graph theory, when $r$ is considered as a constant.…
A graph is $F$-saturated if it is $F$-free but the addition of any edge creates a copy of $F$. In this paper we study the quantity $\mathrm{sat}(n, H, F)$ which denotes the minimum number of copies of $H$ that an $F$-saturated graph on $n$…
A catalog of a class of (3,g) graphs for even girth g is introduced in this paper. A (k,g) graph is a regular graph with degree k and girth g. This catalog of (3,g) graphs for even girth g satisfying 6 <= g <= 16, has the following…
Let $f_{F,G}(n)$ be the largest size of an induced $F$-free subgraph that every $n$-vertex $G$-free graph is guaranteed to contain. We prove that for any triangle-free graph $F$, \[ f_{F,K_3}(n) = f_{K_2,K_3}(n)^{1 + o(1)} = n^{\frac{1}{2}…
We prove that every $3$-graph $H$ on $n$ vertices with minimum codegree $\delta_2(H) \geq 7n/9 + o(n)$ contains the square of a tight Hamilton cycle. This strengthens a theorem of Bedenknecht and Reiher that $\delta_2(H) \geq 4n/5 + o(n)$…
Given $k\ge 2$ and two $k$-graphs ($k$-uniform hypergraphs) $F$ and $H$, an $F$-factor in $H$ is a set of vertex-disjoint copies of $F$ that together covers the vertex set of $H$. Lenz and Mubayi [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 2016] studied the…
K\"uhn, Osthus, and Townsend asked whether there exists a constant $C$ such that every strongly $Ct$-connected tournament contains all possible $1$-factors with at most $t$ components. We answer this question in the affirmative. This is…
In this note, we fix a graph $H$ and ask into how many vertices can each vertex of a clique of size $n$ can be "split" such that the resulting graph is $H$-free. Formally: A graph is an $(n,k)$-graph if its vertex sets is a pairwise…
Let $G$ denote a graph and $k\geq2$ be an integer. A $\{K_{1,1},K_{1,2},\ldots,K_{1,k},\mathcal{T}(2k+1)\}$-factor of $G$ is a spanning subgraph, whose every connected component is isomorphic to an element of…
A proper total colouring of a graph $G$ is called harmonious if it has the further property that when replacing each unordered pair of incident vertices and edges with their colours, then no pair of colours appears twice. The smallest…
Let $F$ be a strictly $k$-balanced $k$-uniform hypergraph with $e(F)\geq |F|-k+1$ and maximum co-degree at least two. The random greedy $F$-free process constructs a maximal $F$-free hypergraph as follows. Consider a random ordering of the…
For which values of $k$ does a uniformly chosen $3$-regular graph $G$ on $n$ vertices typically contain $ n/k$ vertex-disjoint $k$-cycles (a $k$-cycle factor)? To date, this has been answered for $k=n$ and for $k \ll \log n$; the former,…
We study the maximum weight perfect $f$-factor problem on any general simple graph $G=(V,E,w)$ with positive integral edge weights $w$, and $n=|V|$, $m=|E|$. When we have a function $f:V\rightarrow \mathbb{N}_+$ on vertices, a perfect…
Given a signing $\sigma\colon E(K_{n,n})\to\{-1,+1\}$ of the complete bipartite graph, when does $K_{n,n}$ admit a $1$-factorization in which every perfect matching has discrepancy bounded below by a positive absolute constant? Unlike the…
A total graph is an ordered triple $(V_0, V_1, E)$, where $V_0, V_1$ are the sets of empty and full vertices, respectively, $V_0 \cap V_1 = \emptyset$, and the set of edges $E$ is a subset of \(\binom{V_0 \cup V_1}{2}\) $(E\cap(V_0 \cup…
For $k\in \mathbb{N}$, a $k$-acyclic colouring of a graph $G$ is a function $f\colon V(G)\to \{0,1,\dots,k-1\}$ such that (i)~$f(u)\neq f(v)$ for every edge $uv$ of $G$, and (ii)~there is no cycle in $G$ bicoloured by $f$. For $k\in…
We give a simple method to estimate the number of distinct copies of some classes of spanning subgraphs in hypergraphs with high minimum degree. In particular, for each $k\geq 2$ and $1\leq \ell\leq k-1$, we show that every $k$-graph on $n$…
For a fixed graph $F,$ the minimum number of edges in an edge-maximal $F$-free subgraph of $G$ is called the $F$-saturation number. The asymptotics of the $F$-saturation number of the binomial random graph $G(n,p)$ for constant $p\in(0,1)$…
A claw-free graph is a graph that does not contain $K_{1,3}$ as an induced subgraph, and a 2-factor is a 2-regular spanning subgraph of a graph. In 1997, Ryj\'{a}\v{c}ek introduced the closure concept of claw-free graphs, and Hamilton…
For integers $n \geq k \geq 1$, the {\em Kneser graph} $K(n, k)$ is the graph with vertex-set consisting of all the $k$-element subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, where two $k$-element sets are adjacent in $K(n,k)$ if they are disjoint. We show…
