A graph $G$ is said to be ubiquitous, if every graph $\Gamma$ that contains arbitrarily many disjoint $G$-minors automatically contains infinitely many disjoint $G$-minors. The well-known Ubiquity conjecture of Andreae says that every…

We prove that every (6k + 2l, 2k)-connected simple graph contains k rigid and l connected edge-disjoint spanning subgraphs. This implies a theorem of Jackson and Jord\'an [4] and a theorem of Jord\'an [6] on packing of rigid spanning…

Shrub-depth and rank-depth are dense analogues of the tree-depth of a graph. It is well known that a graph has large tree-depth if and only if it has a long path as a subgraph. We prove an analogous statement for shrub-depth and rank-depth,…

Menger's theorem tells us that if $S,T$ are sets of vertices in a graph $G$, then (for $k\ge0$) either there are $k+1$ vertex-disjoint paths between $S$ and $T$, or there is a set of $k$ vertices separating $S$ and $T$. But what if we want…

A simple graph more often than not contains adjacent vertices with equal degrees. This in particular holds for all pairs of neighbours in regular graphs, while a lot such pairs can be expected e.g. in many random models. Is there a…

In 2012, Mader conjectured that for any tree $T$ of order $m$, every $k$-connected graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{3k}{2}\rfloor+m-1$ contains a subtree $T'\cong T$ such that $G-V(T')$ remains $k$-connected. In 2022,…

The connected tree-width of a graph is the minimum width of a tree-decomposition whose parts induce connected subgraphs. Long cycles are examples of graphs that have small tree-width but large connected tree-width. We show that a graph has…

We study a new type of random minimum spanning trees. It is built on the complete graph where each vertex is given a weight, which is a positive real number. Then, each edge is given a capacity which is a random variable that only depends…

Korpelainen, Lozin, and Razgon conjectured that a hereditary property of graphs which is well-quasi-ordered by the induced subgraph order and defined by only finitely many minimal forbidden induced subgraphs is labelled well-quasi-ordered,…

The Grid Theorem of Robertson and Seymour [JCTB, 1986], is one of the most important tools in the field of structural graph theory, finding numerous applications in the design of algorithms for undirected graphs. An analogous version of the…

A famous conjecture by Thomassen from 1983 asserts that for any given $k,g\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists some $d=d(k,g)\in \mathbb{N}$ such that every graph of minimum degree at least $d$ contains a subgraph of minimum degree at least $k$ and…

In 1981, Tuza conjectured that the cardinality of a minimum set of edges that intersects every triangle of a graph is at most twice the cardinality of a maximum set of edge-disjoint triangles. This conjecture have been proved for several…

The Barat-Thomassen conjecture, recently proved in [Bensmail et al.: A proof of the Barat-Thomassen conjecture. J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 124:39-55, 2017.], asserts that for every tree T, there is a constant $c_T$ such that every $c_T$-edge…

A paradigm that was successfully applied in the study of both pure and algorithmic problems in graph theory can be colloquially summarized as stating that "any graph is close to being the disjoint union of expanders". Our goal in this paper…

A fundamental result of Mader from 1972 asserts that a graph of high average degree contains a highly connected subgraph with roughly the same average degree. We prove a lemma showing that one can strengthen Mader's result by replacing the…

Nash-Williams' Strong Immersion Conjecture states that graphs are well-quasi-ordered by the strong immersion relation. That is, given infinitely many graphs, one graph contains another graph as a strong immersion. In this paper we study the…

Ryser's Conjecture states that any $r$-partite $r$-uniform hypergraph has a vertex cover of size at most $r - 1$ times the size of the largest matching. For $r = 2$, the conjecture is simply K\"onig's Theorem and every bipartite graph is a…

Mader [J. Graph Theory 65 (2010) 61-69] conjectured that for every positive integer $k$ and every finite tree $T$ with order $m$, every $k$-connected, finite graph $G$ with $\delta(G)\geq \lfloor\frac{3}{2}k\rfloor+m-1$ contains a subtree…

We study the inference of network archaeology in growing random geometric graphs. We consider the root finding problem for a random nearest neighbor tree in dimension $d \in \mathbb{N}$, generated by sequentially embedding vertices…

Let $G$ be a graph and $p \in [1, \infty]$. The parameter $f_p(G)$ is the least integer $k$ such that for all $m$ and all vectors $(r_v)_{v \in V(G)} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$, there exist vectors $(q_v)_{v \in V(G)} \subseteq \mathbb{R}^k$…
