Bipartite graph tiling was studied by Zhao who gave the best possible minimum degree conditions for a balanced bipartite graph on 2ms vertices to contain m vertex disjoint copies of K_{s,s}. Let s<t be fixed positive integers. Hladk\'y and…

In a fractional coloring, vertices of a graph are assigned measurable subsets of the real line and adjacent vertices receive disjoint subsets; the fractional chromatic number of a graph is at most $k$ if it has a fractional coloring in…

The degree sequence of a graph is the sequence of the degrees of its vertices. If $\pi$ is a degree sequence of a graph $G$, then $G$ is a realization of $\pi$ and $G$ realizes $\pi$. Determining when a sequence of positive integers is…

For $n \in \mathbb{N}$ let $\delta_n$ be the smallest value such that every graph of order $n$ and minimum degree at least $\delta_n$ admits an orientation of diameter two. We show that $\delta_n=\frac{n}{2} + \Theta(\ln n)$.

A graph $G$ is called $k$-factor-critical if $G-S$ has a perfect matching for every $S\subseteq G$ with $|S|=k$. A connected graph $G$ is called $t$-connected if it has more than $t$ vertices and remains connected whenever fewer than $t$…

It is shown phenomenologically that the fractional derivative $\xi=D^\alpha u$ of order $\alpha$ of a multifractal function has a power-law tail $\propto |\xi| ^{-p_\star}$ in its cumulative probability, for a suitable range of $\alpha$'s.…

King, Lu, and Peng recently proved that for $\Delta\geq 4$, any $K_\Delta$-free graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ has fractional chromatic number at most $\Delta-\tfrac{2}{67}$ unless it is isomorphic to $C_5\boxtimes K_2$ or $C_8^2$.…

A graph is $t$-tough if the deletion of any set of, say, $m$ vertices from the graph leaves a graph with at most $\frac{m}{t}$ components. In 1973, Chv\'{a}tal suggested the problem of relating toughness to factors in graphs. In 1985,…

We study two extremal problems about subgraphs excluding a family $\F$ of graphs. i) Among all graphs with $m$ edges, what is the smallest size $f(m,\F)$ of a largest $\F$--free subgraph? ii) Among all graphs with minimum degree $\delta$…

A proper colouring of a graph $G$ is $\beta$-frugal if every colour appears at most $\beta$ times in the neighbourhood of each vertex. Let $\chi_\beta(G)$ denote the minimum number of colours needed for a $\beta$-frugal colouring of $G$.…

We study minimum degree conditions under which a graph $G$ contains $k$th powers of paths and cycles of arbitrary specified lengths. We determine precise thresholds, assuming that the order of $G$ is large. This extends a result of Allen,…

A digraph $D$ is an oriented graph if $D$ does not have a pair of opposite arcs. The degree of a vertex $v$ of $D$ is the sum of the in-degree and out-degree of $v.$ Let $fvs(D)$ be the minimum number of vertices whose deletion from $D$…
