Given $k$-uniform hypergraphs $G$ and $H$ on $n$ vertices with densities $p$ and $q$, their relative discrepancy is defined as $\hbox{disc}(G,H)=\max\big||E(G')\cap E(H')|-pq\binom{n}{k}\big|$, where the maximum ranges over all pairs…

A graph $H$ is common if its Ramsey multiplicity, i.e., the minimum number of monochromatic copies of $H$ contained in any $2$-edge-coloring of $K_n$, is asymptotically the same as the number of monochromatic copies in the random…

Let $\tau(\mathcal{H})$ be the cover number and $\nu(\mathcal{H})$ be the matching number of a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$. Ryser conjectured that every $r$-partite hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ satisfies the inequality $\tau(\mathcal{H}) \leq…

We consider a variation of Ramsey numbers introduced by Erd\H{o}s and Pach (1983), where instead of seeking complete or independent sets we only seek a $t$-homogeneous set, a vertex subset that induces a subgraph of minimum degree at least…

Motivated by the analogous questions in graphs, we study the complexity of coloring and stable set problems in hypergraphs with forbidden substructures and bounded edge size. Letting $\nu(G)$ denote the maximum size of a matching in $H$, we…

Weak and strong coloring numbers are generalizations of the degeneracy of a graph, where for each natural number $k$, we seek a vertex ordering such every vertex can (weakly respectively strongly) reach in $k$ steps only few vertices with…

Albertson conjectured that if graph $G$ has chromatic number $r$, then the crossing number of $G$ is at least that of the complete graph $K_r$. This conjecture in the case $r=5$ is equivalent to the four color theorem. It was verified for…

Given a hypergraph $H$, the size-Ramsey number $\hat{r}_2(H)$ is the smallest integer $m$ such that there exists a graph $G$ with $m$ edges with the property that in any colouring of the edges of $G$ with two colours there is a…

Let $H$ be a triple system with maximum degree $d>1$ and let $r>10^7\sqrt{d}\log^{2}d$. Then $H$ has a proper vertex coloring with $r$ colors such that any two color classes differ in size by at most one. The bound on $r$ is sharp in order…

The typical extremal problem asks how large a structure can be without containing a forbidden substructure. The Erd\H{o}s-Rothschild problem, introduced in 1974 by Erd\H{o}s and Rothschild in the context of extremal graph theory, is a…

A celebrated result of R\"odl and Ruci\'nski states that for every graph $F$, which is not a forest of stars and paths of length $3$, and fixed number of colours $r\ge 2$ there exist positive constants $c, C$ such that for $p \leq…

We investigate extremal problems for hypergraphs satisfying the following density condition. A $3$-uniform hypergraph $H=(V, E)$ is $(d, \eta,P_2)$-dense if for any two subsets of pairs $P$, $Q\subseteq V\times V$ the number of pairs…

Let $m(n,r)$ denote the minimal number of edges in an $n$-uniform hypergraph which is not $r$-colorable. For the broad history of the problem see [RaiSh]. It is known that for a fixed $n$ the sequence \[ \frac{m(n,r)}{r^n} \] has a limit.…

In FOCS'2002, Even et al. introduced and studied the notion of conflict-free colorings of geometrically defined hypergraphs. They motivated it by frequency assignment problems in cellular networks. This notion has been extensively studied…

Given a graph $G$ and a real $\varepsilon>0$, an edge-coloring of $G$ is called $\varepsilon$-balanced if each color appears on at least an $\varepsilon$-fraction of the edges in $G$. A classical result of Erd\H{o}s and Szemer\'{e}di…

A proper coloring of a graph is \emph{conflict-free} if, for every non-isolated vertex, some color is used exactly once on its neighborhood. Caro, Petru\v{s}evski, and \v{S}krekovski proved that every graph $G$ has a proper conflict-free…

A $k$-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices is an $(n,k,\ell)$-omitting system if it does not contain two edges whose intersection has size exactly $\ell$. If in addition it does not contain two edges whose intersection has size greater than…

In 1991, McKay and Radziszowski proved that, however each 3-subset of a 13-set is assigned one of two colours, there is some 4-subset whose four 3-subsets have the same colour. More than 25 years later, this remains the only non-trivial…
