This paper introduces a new variant of hypercubes, which we call Z-cubes. The n-dimensional Z-cube $H_n$ is obtained from two copies of the (n-1)-dimensional Z-cube $H_{n-1}$ by adding a special perfect matching between the vertices of…
The maximum number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta\ge 3$ and fixed diameter $k\ge 2$ is upper bounded by $(1+o(1))(\Delta-1)^{k}$. If we restrict our graphs to certain classes, better upper bounds are known. For instance,…
This paper focuses on the embeddability of hypercubes in an important class of Cayley graphs, known as augmented cubes. An $n$-dimensional augmented cube $AQ_n$ is constructed by augmenting the $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ with…
Let $L(G)$ denote the maximum number of leaves in any spanning tree of a connected graph $G$. We show the (known) result that for the $n$-cube $Q_n$, $L(Q_n) \sim 2^n = |V(Q_n)|$ as $n\rightarrow \infty$. Examining this more carefully,…
Consider a host hypergraph $G$ which contains a spanning structure due to minimum degree considerations. We collect three results proving that if the edges of $G$ are sampled at the appropriate rate then the spanning structure still appears…
How many edges can a quadrilateral-free subgraph of a hypercube have? This question was raised by Paul Erd\H{o}s about $27$ years ago. His conjecture that such a subgraph asymptotically has at most half the edges of a hypercube is still…
How many hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are needed in order to slice every edge of the $n$-dimensional hypercube with vertex set $\{\pm 1\}^n$? Here, we say that a hyperplane $H\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ slices an edge of the hypercube if it…
Let p(k) denote the partition function of k. For each k >= 2, we describe a list of p(k)-1 quasirandom properties that a k-uniform hypergraph can have. Our work connects previous notions on linear hypergraph quasirandomness of…
We improve Larman's bound on the diameter of a polytope by showing that if $\Delta$ is a normal simplicial complex, all of whose missing faces have size at most $r$, then the diameter of the facet-ridge graph of $\Delta$ is not larger than…
We give a short proof that any k-uniform hypergraph H on n vertices with bounded degree \Delta has Ramsey number at most c(\Delta, k)n, for an appropriate constant c(\Delta, k). This result was recently proved by several authors, but those…
This paper is motivated by the following question: what are the unavoidable induced subgraphs of graphs with large treewidth? Aboulker et al. made a conjecture which answers this question in graphs of bounded maximum degree, asserting that…
An open problem that is widely regarded as one of the most important in quantum query complexity is to resolve the quantum query complexity of the k-distinctness function on inputs of size N. While the case of k=2 (also called Element…
Structure connectivity and substructure connectivity are innovative indicators for assessing network reliability and fault tolerance. Similarly, fault diameter evaluates fault tolerance and transmission delays in networks. This paper…
We prove that for every odd $q\geq 3$, any $q$-query binary, possibly non-linear locally decodable code ($q$-LDC) $E:\{\pm1\}^k \rightarrow \{\pm1\}^n$ must satisfy $k \leq \tilde{O}(n^{1-2/q})$. For even $q$, this bound was established in…
P. Erd\H{o}s, J. Pach, R. Pollack, and Z. Tuza [J. Combin. Theory, B 47 (1989), 279--285] made conjectures for the maximum diameter of connected graphs without a complete subgraph $K_{k+1}$, which have order $n$ and minimum degree $\delta$.…
In 1990 Erd\H{o}s, Faudree, Rousseau and Schelp proved that for $k\geq 2$, every graph with $n\geq k+1$ vertices and $(k-1)(n-k+2)+\binom{k-2}{2}+1$ edges contains a subgraph of minimum degree $k$ on at most $n-\sqrt{n}/\sqrt{6k^3}$…
The degree-diameter problem consists of finding the maximum number of vertices $n$ of a graph with diameter $d$ and maximum degree $\Delta$. This problem is well studied, and has been solved for plane graphs of low diameter in which every…
The degree diameter problem asks for the maximum possible number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ and diameter $D$. In this paper, we focus on planar graphs of diameter $3$. Fellows, Hell and Seyffarth (1995) proved that…
Let $k,r \geq 2$ be two integers. We consider the problem of partitioning the hyperedge set of an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ into the minimum number $\chi_k'(H)$ of edge-disjoint subhypergraphs in which every vertex has either degree $0$ or…
We give a simple method to estimate the number of distinct copies of some classes of spanning subgraphs in hypergraphs with high minimum degree. In particular, for each $k\geq 2$ and $1\leq \ell\leq k-1$, we show that every $k$-graph on $n$…
