For a graph $G$ and a constant $\alpha>0$, we denote by $C_{\alpha}(G)$ the minimum order of a subgraph $H\subseteq G$ with $d(H)\ge \alpha d(G)$. Liu and Montgomery conjectured that every graph $G$ contains $K_{\Omega(t)}$ as a subdivision…

For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $F$ we consider the parameter $\Theta(F)$, the minimum size of a clique cover of the of $F$. We derive bounds on $\Theta(F)$ for $F$ belonging to various classes of hypergraphs.

In this paper, we consider the problem of finding weak independent sets in a distributed network represented by a hypergraph. In this setting, each edge contains a set of r vertices rather than simply a pair, as in a standard graph. A…

Clique-width is an important graph parameter due to its algorithmic and structural properties. A graph class is hereditary if it can be characterized by a (not necessarily finite) set ${\cal H}$ of forbidden induced subgraphs. We initiate a…

A copy of a hypergraph $F$ is called an $F$-copy. Let $K_k^r$ denote the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph whose vertex set is $[k] = \{1, \dots, k\}$ (that is, the edges of $K_k^r$ are the $r$-element subsets of $[k]$). Given an $r$-uniform…
