For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $\nu^{(m)}(H)$ denote the maximum size of a set $S$ of edges of $H$ whose pairwise intersection has size less than $m$. Let $\tau^{(m)}(H)$ denote the minimum size of a set $S$ of $m$-sets of $V(H)$…

We prove the following 30-year old conjecture of Gy\H{o}ri and Tuza: the edges of every $n$-vertex graph $G$ can be decomposed into complete graphs $C_1,\ldots,C_\ell$ of orders two and three such that $|C_1|+\cdots+|C_\ell|\le…

This is Part 1 in a series of papers about sizes of regular partitions of $3$-uniform hypergraphs. Previous work of the author and Wolf, and independently Chernikov and Towsner, showed that $3$-uniform hypergraphs of small slicewise…

Motivated by the theorem of Gy\H ori and Lov\'asz, we consider the following problem. For a connected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges determine the number $P(G,k)$ of unordered solutions of positive integers $\sum_{i=1}^k m_i = m$…

We prove the well-known Brown-Erd\H{o}s-S\'os Conjecture for hypergraphs of large uniformity in the following form: any dense linear $r$-graph $G$ has $k$ edges spanning at most $(r-2)k+3$ vertices, provided the uniformity $r$ of $G$ is…

Let $H$ be a hypergraph. For a $k$-edge coloring $c : E(H) \to \{1,...,k\}$ let $f(H,c)$ be the number of components in the subhypergraph induced by the color class with the least number of components. Let $f_k(H)$ be the maximum possible…

Let $H$ be a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices where $n$ is a sufficiently large integer not divisible by $k$. We prove that if the minimum $(k-1)$-degree of $H$ is at least $\lfloor n/k \rfloor$, then $H$ contains a matching with…

We prove that for all $k \ge 3$ and any integers $\Delta, n$ with $n \ge 2^\Delta,$ there exists a $k$-graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$ such that $r(H)\geq\tw_{k-1}(c_k \Delta) \cdot n$ for some constant $c_k > 0$,…

Given a hypergraph $H$, the size-Ramsey number $\hat{r}_2(H)$ is the smallest integer $m$ such that there exists a graph $G$ with $m$ edges with the property that in any colouring of the edges of $G$ with two colours there is a…

Fix an integer $k \ge 3$. A $k$-uniform hypergraph is simple if every two edges share at most one vertex. We prove that there is a constant $c$ depending only on $k$ such that every simple $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ with maximum degree $\D$…

For $n\geq s> r\geq 1$ and $k\geq 2$, write $n \rightarrow (s)_{k}^r$ if every hyperedge colouring with $k$ colours of the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices has a monochromatic subset of size $s$. Improving upon previous…

The decision problem of perfect matchings in uniform hypergraphs is famously an NP-complete problem. It has been shown by Keevash--Knox--Mycroft [STOC, 2013] that for every $\varepsilon>0$, such decision problem restricted to $k$-uniform…

For a fixed integer h>=1, let G be a tripartite graph with N vertices in each vertex class, N divisible by 6h, such that every vertex is adjacent to at least 2N/3+h-1 vertices in each of the other classes. We show that if N is sufficiently…

We prove that, for large $n$, every $3$-connected $D$-regular graph on $n$ vertices with $D \geq n/4$ is Hamiltonian. This is best possible and confirms a conjecture posed independently by Bollob\'as and H\"aggkvist in the 1970s. The proof…

A celebrated result of Alon from 1993 states that any $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices (where $d=O(n^{1/9})$) has a bisection with at most $\frac{dn}{2}(\frac{1}{2}-\Omega(\frac{1}{\sqrt{d}}))$ edges, and this is optimal. Recently, this…

For a fixed bipartite graph H and given number c, 0<c<1, we determine the threshold T_H(c) which guarantees that any n-vertex graph with at edge density at least T_H(c) contains $(1-o(1))c/v(H) n$ vertex-disjoint copies of H. In the proof…
