As introduced by Bollob\'as, a graph $G$ is weakly $H$-saturated if the complete graph $K_n$ is obtained by iteratively completing copies of $H$ minus an edge. For all graphs $H$, we obtain an asymptotic lower bound for the critical…

We prove the well-known Brown-Erd\H{o}s-S\'os Conjecture for hypergraphs of large uniformity in the following form: any dense linear $r$-graph $G$ has $k$ edges spanning at most $(r-2)k+3$ vertices, provided the uniformity $r$ of $G$ is…

The well-known 1-2-3 Conjecture asserts that the edges of every graph without an isolated edge can be weighted with $1$, $2$ and $3$ so that adjacent vertices receive distinct weighted degrees. This is open in general. We prove that every…

Motivated by the Erdos-Faber Lovasz conjecture (EFL) for hypergraphs, we explore relationships between several conjectures on the edge coloring of linear hypergraphs. In particular, we are able to increase the class of hypergraphs for which…

We prove a version of the Loebl-Komlos-Sos Conjecture for dense graphs. For each q>0 there exists a number $n_0\in \mathbb{N}$ such that for any n>n_0 and k>qn the following holds: if G be a graph of order n with at least n/2 vertices of…

We study the problem of testing the existence of a dense subhypergraph. The null hypothesis is an Erdos-Renyi uniform random hypergraph and the alternative hypothesis is a uniform random hypergraph that contains a dense subhypergraph. We…

Given an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H=(V,E)$ and a weight function $\omega:E\to\{1,\dots,w\}$, a coloring of vertices of $H$, induced by $\omega$, is defined by $c(v) = \sum_{e\ni v} w(e)$ for all $v\in V$. If there exists such a coloring that…

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.…

Erd\H{o}s conjectured that every triangle-free graph $G$ on $n$ vertices contains a set of $\lfloor n/2 \rfloor$ vertices that spans at most $n^2 /50$ edges. Krivelevich proved the conjecture for graphs with minimum degree at least…

The Erd\H{o}s-Faber-Lov\'{a}sz conjecture (posed in 1972) states that the chromatic index of any linear hypergraph on $n$ vertices is at most $n$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for every large $n$. We also provide stability…

One of Erdos's conjectures states that every triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices has an induced subgraph on $n/2$ vertices with at most $n^2/50$ edges. We report several partial results towards this conjecture. In particular, we establish…

A rough structure theorem is proved for graphs $G$ containing no copy of a bounded degree tree $T$: from any such $G$, one can delete $o(|G||T|)$ edges in order to get a subgraph all of whose connected components have a cover of order…

A linear hypergraph is intersecting if any two different edges have exactly one common vertex and an $n$-quasicluster is an intersecting linear hypergraph with $n$ edges each one containing at most $n$ vertices and every vertex is contained…

A hypergraph $G=(V,E)$ is $(k,\ell)$-sparse if no subset $V'\subset V$ spans more than $k|V'|-\ell$ hyperedges. We characterize $(k,\ell)$-sparse hypergraphs in terms of graph theoretic, matroidal and algorithmic properties. We extend…

A sequence of $k$-uniform hypergraphs $H_1, H_2, \dots$ is convergent if the sequence of homomorphism densities $t(F, H_1), t(F, H_2), \dots$ converges for every $k$-uniform hypergraph $F$. For graphs, Lov\'asz and Szegedy showed that every…
