An edge-colored graph is a graph in which each edge is assigned a color. Such a graph is called strongly edge-colored if each color class forms an induced matching, and called rainbow if all edges receive pairwise distinct colors. In this…

Let $G$ be a nontrivial connected graph of order $n$ with an edge-coloring $c:E(G)\rightarrow\{1,2,\dots,t\}$,$t\in\mathbb{N}$, where adjacent edges may be colored with the same color. A tree $T$ in $G$ is a \emph{proper tree} if no two…

This paper studies problems related to visibility among points in the plane. A point $x$ \emph{blocks} two points $v$ and $w$ if $x$ is in the interior of the line segment $\bar{vw}$. A set of points $P$ is \emph{$k$-blocked} if each point…

Given an edge-coloured graph, we say that a subgraph is rainbow if all of its edges have different colours. Let $\operatorname{ex}(n,H,$rainbow-$F)$ denote the maximal number of copies of $H$ that a properly edge-coloured graph on $n$…

A path in an edge colored graph is said to be a rainbow path if no two edges on the path have the same color. An edge colored graph is (strongly) rainbow connected if there exists a (geodesic) rainbow path between every pair of vertices.…

We say a graph $H$ is $r$-rainbow-uncommon if the maximum number of rainbow copies of $H$ under an $r$-coloring of $E(K_n)$ is asymptotically (as $n \to \infty$) greater than what is expected from uniformly random $r$-colorings. Via…

Given a graph $H$, we say that a graph $G$ is properly rainbow $H$-saturated if: (1) There is a proper edge colouring of $G$ containing no rainbow copy of $H$; (2) For every $e \notin E(G)$, every proper edge colouring of $G+e$ contains a…
