A Berge-path of length $k$ in a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is a sequence $v_1,e_1,v_2,e_2,\dots,v_{k},e_k,v_{k+1}$ of distinct vertices and hyperedges with $v_{i},v_{i+1} \in e_i$, for $i \le k$. F\"uredi, Kostochka and Luo, and independently…

We develop a new method for constructing approximate decompositions of dense graphs into sparse graphs and apply it to longstanding decomposition problems. For instance, our results imply the following. Let $G$ be a quasi-random $n$-vertex…

Classical questions in extremal graph theory concern the asymptotics of $\operatorname{ex}(G, \mathcal{H})$ where $\mathcal{H}$ is a fixed family of graphs and $G=G_n$ is taken from a `standard' increasing sequence of host graphs $(G_1,…

In this paper we introduce a new way of measuring the robustness of Erd\H{o}s--Ko--Rado (EKR) Theorems on permutation groups. EKR-type results can be viewed as results about the independence numbers of certain corresponding graphs, namely…

We address a problem posed by Erd\H{o}s and Hajnal in 1991, proving that for all $n \geq 600$, every $(2n+1)$-vertex graph with at least $n^2 + n + 1$ edges contains two vertices of equal degree connected by a path of length three. The…

We consider random temporal graphs, a version of the classical Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph G(n,p) where additionally, each edge has a distinct random time stamp, and connectivity is constrained to sequences of edges with increasing time…

In this paper we present a simple unifying approach to prove several statements about intersecting and cross-intersecting families, including the Erd\H os--Ko--Rado theorem, the Hilton--Milner theorem, a theorem due to Frankl concerning the…

For a set of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, the extremal number $ex(n;\mathcal{F})$ is the maximum number of edges in a graph of order $n$ not containing any subgraph isomorphic to some graph in $\mathcal{F}$. If $\mathcal{F}$ contains a graph on…

A recent result of Condon, Kim, K\"{u}hn and Osthus implies that for any $r\geq (\frac{1}{2}+o(1))n$, an $n$-vertex almost $r$-regular graph $G$ has an approximate decomposition into any collections of $n$-vertex bounded degree trees. In…

The famous Erd\H{o}s-Gallai Theorem on the Tur\'an number of paths states that every graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges contains a path with at least $\frac{2m}{n}$ edges. In this note, we first establish a simple but novel extension of…

Dirac (1952) proved that every connected graph of order $n>2k+1$ with minimum degree more than $k$ contains a path of length at least $2k+1$. Erd\H{o}s and Gallai (1959) showed that every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with average degree more than…

A $k$-uniform hypergraph is $s$-almost intersecting if every edge is disjoint from exactly $s$ other edges. Gerbner, Lemons, Palmer, Patk\'os and Sz\'ecsi conjectured that for every $k$, and $s>s_0(k)$, every $k$-uniform $s$-almost…

We use an algebraic method to prove a degree version of the celebrated Erd\H os-Ko-Rado theorem: given $n>2k$, every intersecting $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on $n$ vertices contains a vertex that lies on at most $\binom{n-2}{k-2}$ edges.…

Since its formulation, Tur\'an's hypergraph problems have been among the most challenging open problems in extremal combinatorics. One of them is the following: given a $3$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{F}$ on $n$ vertices in which any five…

Kalai conjectured that every $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph with more than $\frac{t-1}{r} {n \choose r-1}$ edges contains all tight $r$-trees of some fixed size $t$. We prove Kalai's conjecture for $r$-partite $r$-uniform hypergraphs.…

The Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}(n,H)$ of a graph $H$ is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph which does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. The Tur\'{a}n number of regular polyhedrons was widely studied in a series of works due to…
