Extending the work of Liu--Mubayi--Reiher~\cite{LMR23unif} on hypergraph Tur\'{a}n problems, we introduce the notion of vertex-extendability for general extremal problems on hypergraphs and develop an axiomatized framework for proving…

Both the Simonovits stability theorem and the Nikiforov spectral stability theorem are powerful tools for solving exact values of Tur\'{a}n numbers in extremal graph theory. Recently, F\"{u}redi [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 115 (2015)]…

We present a method which provides a unified framework for most stability theorems that have been proved in graph and hypergraph theory. Our main result reduces stability for a large class of hypergraph problems to the simpler question of…

A fundamental barrier in extremal hypergraph theory is the presence of many near-extremal constructions with very different structures. Indeed, the classical constructions due to Kostochka imply that the notorious extremal problem for the…

Unlike graphs, determining Tur\'{a}n densities of hypergraphs is known to be notoriously hard in general. The essential reason is that for many classical families of $r$-uniform hypergraphs $\mathcal{F}$, there are perhaps many…

Keevash, Lenz and Mubayi developed a general criterion for hypergraph spectral extremal problems in their seminal work (SIAM J. Discrete Math., 2014). Their framework shows that extremal results on the $\alpha$-spectral radius (for $\alpha…

For every positive integer $t$ we construct a finite family of triple systems ${\mathcal M}_t$, determine its Tur\'{a}n number, and show that there are $t$ extremal ${\mathcal M}_t$-free configurations that are far from each other in…

We give the first exact and stability results for a hypergraph Tur\'{a}n problem with infinitely many extremal constructions that are far from each other in edit-distance. This includes an example of triple systems with Tur\'{a}n density…

In recent years several classical results in extremal graph theory have been improved in a uniform way and their proofs have been simplified and streamlined. These results include a new Erd\H{o}s-Stone-Bollob\'as theorem, several stability…

We prove several results from different areas of extremal combinatorics, including complete or partial solutions to a number of open problems. These results, coming mainly from extremal graph theory and Ramsey theory, have been collected…

The stability method is very useful for obtaining exact solutions of many extremal graph problems. Its key step is to establish the stability property which, roughly speaking, states that any two almost optimal graphs of the same order $n$…

Tur\'an's Theorem says that an extremal $K_{r+1}$-free graph is $r$-partite. The Stability Theorem of Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits shows that if a $K_{r+1}$-free graph with $n$ vertices has close to the maximal $t_r(n)$ edges, then it is close…

For two $r$-graphs $\mathcal{T}$ and $\mathcal{H}$, let $\text{ex}_{r}(n,\mathcal{T},\mathcal{H})$ be the maximum number of copies of $\mathcal{T}$ in an $n$-vertex $\mathcal{H}$-free $r$-graph. The determination of Tur\'{a}n number…

Given graphs $H$ and $F$, the generalized Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}(n,H,F)$ is the largest number of copies of $H$ in $n$-vertex $F$-free graphs. Stability refers to the usual phenomenon that if an $n$-vertex $F$-free graph $G$ contains…

The Fibonacci index of a graph is the number of its stable sets. This parameter is widely studied and has applications in chemical graph theory. In this paper, we establish tight upper bounds for the Fibonacci index in terms of the…

In 1952, Dirac proved that every $2$-connected $n$-vertex graph with the minimum degree $k+1$ contains a cycle of length at least $\min\{n, 2(k+1)\}$. Here we obtain a stability version of this result by characterizing those graphs with…

We prove stable versions of trace theorems on the sphere in $L^2$ with optimal constants, thus obtaining rather precise information regarding near-extremisers. We also obtain stability for the trace theorem into $L^q$ for $q > 2$, by…

The following sharpening of Tur\'an's theorem is proved. Let $T_{n,p}$ denote the complete $p$--partite graph of order $n$ having the maximum number of edges. If $G$ is an $n$-vertex $K_{p+1}$-free graph with $e(T_{n,p})-t$ edges then there…
