We propose the following conjecture: For every fixed $\alpha\in [0,\frac 13)$, each graph of minimum degree at least $(1+\alpha)\frac k2$ and maximum degree at least $2(1-\alpha)k$ contains each tree with $k$ edges as a subgraph. Our main…

A variant of the Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture, posed by Havet, Reed, Stein and Wood, states that every graph with minimum degree at least $\lfloor 2k/3 \rfloor$ and maximum degree at least $k$ contains a copy of every tree with $k$ edges.…

The Erd\H{o}s-S\'os Conjecture states that every graph with average degree exceeding $k-1$ contains every tree with $k$ edges as a subgraph. We prove that there are $\delta>0$ and $k_0\in\mathbb N$ such that the conjecture holds for every…

Klimo\v{s}ov\'a, Piguet, and Rozho\v{n} conjectured that any graph with minimum degree $k/2$ and sufficiently many vertices of degree $k$ should contain all trees with $k$ edges. We prove an asymptotic version of this conjecture for dense…

A famous conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os states that every graph with average degree more than $k - 1$ contains all trees with $k$ edges as subgraphs. We prove that the Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture holds approximately, if the size of the…

A classical result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi shows that every large $n$-vertex graph with minimum degree at least $(1/2+\gamma)n$ contains all spanning trees of bounded degree. We generalised this result to loose spanning…

A well-known conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os states that every graph with average degree exceeding $m-1$ contains every tree with $m$ edges as a subgraph. We propose a variant of this conjecture, which states that every graph of maximum…

We ask the question, which oriented trees $T$ must be contained as subgraphs in every finite directed graph of sufficiently large minimum out-degree. We formulate the following simple condition: all vertices in $T$ of in-degree at least $2$…

The famous Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture states that every graph of average degree more than $t-1$ must contain every tree on $t+1$ vertices. In this paper, we study a spectral version of this conjecture. For $n>k$, let $S_{n,k}$ be the join…

We prove the Erd\H os--S\'os conjecture for trees with bounded maximum degree and large dense host graphs. As a corollary, we obtain an upper bound on the multicolour Ramsey number of large trees whose maximum degree is bounded by a…

We prove that for fixed $k$, every $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices and of minimum codegree at least $n/2+o(n)$ contains every spanning tight $k$-tree of bounded vertex degree as a sub\-graph. This generalises a well-known result of…

We prove that, if $m$ is sufficiently large, every graph on $m+1$ vertices that has a universal vertex and minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{2m}{3} \rfloor$ contains each tree $T$ with $m$ edges as a subgraph. Our result confirms, for…

The $k$-expansion of a graph $G$ is the $k$-uniform hypergraph obtained from $G$ by adding $k-2$ new vertices to every edge. We determine, for all $k > d \geq 1$, asymptotically optimal $d$-degree conditions that ensure the existence of all…

We use an algebraic method to prove a degree version of the celebrated Erd\H os-Ko-Rado theorem: given $n>2k$, every intersecting $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on $n$ vertices contains a vertex that lies on at most $\binom{n-2}{k-2}$ edges.…
