Given a system $\mathcal{G} =\{G_1,G_2,\dots,G_m\}$ of graphs/digraphs/hypergraphs on the common vertex set $V$ of size $n$, an $m$-edge graph/digraph/hypergraph $H$ on $V$ is transversal in $\mathcal{G}$ if there exists a bijection…

A connected digraph in which the in-degree of any vertex equals its out-degree is Eulerian; this baseline result is used as the basis of existence proofs for universal cycles (also known as ucycles or generalized deBruijn cycles or…

For fixed integers $r\ge 3,e\ge 3,v\ge r+1$, an $r$-uniform hypergraph is called $\mathscr{G}_r(v,e)$-free if the union of any $e$ distinct edges contains at least $v+1$ vertices. Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'{o}s showed that the maximum number…

In this paper, we study discrepancy questions for spanning subgraphs of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. Our main result is that, for any integers $k \ge 3$ and $r \ge 2$, any $r$-colouring of the edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $G$…

A graph G = (V,E) is called fully regular if for every independent set $I\subset V$ , the number of vertices in $V\setminus$ I that are not connected to any element of I depends only on the size of I. A linear ordering of the vertices of G…

Let $Y_{3,2}$ be the $3$-uniform hypergraph with two edges intersecting in two vertices. Our main result is that any $n$-vertex 3-uniform hypergraph with at least $\binom{n}{3} - \binom{n-m+1}{3} + o(n^3)$ edges contains a collection of $m$…

A $3$-uniform loose cycle, denoted by $C_t$, is a $3$-graph on $t$ vertices whose vertices can be arranged cyclically so that each hyperedge consists of three consecutive vertices, and any two consecutive hyperedges share exactly one…

We consider homological edge percolation on a sequence $(\mathcal{G}_t)_t$ of finite graphs covered by an infinite (quasi)transitive graph $\mathcal{H}$, and weakly convergent to $\mathcal{H}$. Namely, we use the covering maps to classify…

In 1996, in his last paper, Erd\H{o}s asked the following question that he formulated together with Faudree: is there a positive $c$ such that any $(n+1)$-regular graph $G$ on $2n$ vertices contains at least $c 2^{2n}$ distinct…

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 $G$…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $I(G)$ denote the corresponding edge ideal. In this paper we prove that if $G$ is a unicyclic graph then for all $s \geq 1$ the regularity of $I(G)^s$ is exactly $2s+\text{reg}(I(G))-2$. We also…

Let $S$ be a subset of the cyclic group $\Z_n$. The cyclic Haar graph $H(\Z_n,S)$ is the bipartite graph with color classes $\Z_n^+$ and $\Z_n^-,$ and edges $\{x^+,y^-\},$ where $x,y \in \Z_n$ and $y - x \in S$. In this paper we give…

A properly colored cycle (path) in an edge-colored graph is a cycle (path) with consecutive edges assigned distinct colors. A monochromatic triangle is a cycle of length $3$ with the edges assigned a same color. It is known that every…

A graph is said to be cyclic $k$-edge-connected, if at least $k$ edges must be removed to disconnect it into two components, each containing a cycle. Such a set of $k$ edges is called a cyclic-$k$-edge cutset and it is called a trivial…

Let G=(V,E) be a graph. A vertex dominates itself and all its neighbors, i.e., every vertex v in V dominates its closed neighborhood N[v]. A vertex set D in G is an efficient dominating (e.d.) set for G if for every vertex v in V, there is…
