Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a nonempty family of graphs. A graph $G$ is called $\mathcal{F}$-\textit{free} if it contains no graph from $\mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. For a positive integer $n$, the \emph{planar Tur\'an number} of $\F$, denoted by…

The $\textit{planar Tur\'an number}$ $\textrm{ex}_{\mathcal P}(n,H)$ of a graph $H$ is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex planar graph without $H$ as a subgraph. Let $C_{\ell}$ denote the cycle of length $\ell$. The planar Tur\'an…

For a graph $F$, let ${\rm EX}(n,F)$ be the set of $F$-free graphs of order $n$ with the maximum number of edges. The graph $F$ is called vertex-critical, if the deletion of its some vertex induces a graph with smaller chromatic number. For…

Given a graph $F$, the planar Tur\'an number of $F$, denoted $\text{ex}_{\mathcal{P}}(n, F)$, is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $F$-free planar graph. Such an extremal graph problem was initiated by Dowden while determining…

An abstract simplicial complex $\mathbf{F}$ is a non-uniform hypergraph without isolated vertices, whose edge set is closed under taking subsets. The extremal number $\mathrm{ex}(n,\mathbf{F})$ is the maximum number of edges in an…

The well-known Tur\'{a}n theorem states that if $G$ is an $n$-vertex $K_{r+1}$-free graph, then $e(G)\le e(T_{n,r})$, with equality if and only if $G$ is the $r$-partite Tur\'{a}n graph $T_{n,r}$. A graph $F$ is called color-critical if it…

Let $F$ be a graph which contains an edge whose deletion reduces its chromatic number. We prove tight bounds on the number of copies of $F$ in a graph with a prescribed number of vertices and edges. Our results extend those of Simonovits,…

The $r$-blowup of a graph $F$, denoted by $F[r]$, is the graph obtained by replacing the vertices and edges of $F$ with independent sets of size $r$ and copies of $K_{r,r}$, respectively. For bipartite graphs $F$, very little is known about…

The Tur\'an problem asks for the largest number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph not containing a fixed forbidden subgraph $F$. We construct a new family of graphs not containing $K_{s,t}$, for $t= C^s$, with $\Omega(n^{2-1/s})$ edges…

Let $F$ be a graph. We say that a hypergraph $H$ is a {\it Berge}-$F$ if there is a bijection $f : E(F) \rightarrow E(H )$ such that $e \subseteq f(e)$ for every $e \in E(F)$. Note that Berge-$F$ actually denotes a class of hypergraphs. The…

We investigate natural Tur\'an problems for mixed graphs, generalizations of graphs where edges can be either directed or undirected. We study a natural \textit{Tur\'an density coefficient} that measures how large a fraction of directed…

A {\it simple $k$-coloring} of a multigraph $G$ is a decomposition of the edge multiset as a disjoint sum of $k$ simple graphs which are referred as colors. A subgraph $H$ of a multigraph $G$ is called {\it multicolored} if its edges…

Given a graph $H$ and a function $f(n)$, the Ramsey-Tur\'an number $RT(n,H,f(n))$ is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $H$-free graph with independence number at most $f(n)$. For $H$ being a small clique, many results about…

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…

Given a graph family $\mathcal{H}$ with $\min_{H\in \mathcal{H}}\chi(H)=r+1\geq 3$. Let ${\rm ex}(n,\mathcal{H})$ and ${\rm spex}(n,\mathcal{H})$ be the maximum number of edges and the maximum spectral radius of the adjacency matrix over…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $r$-uniform hypergraphs. The random Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}(G^r_{n,p},\mathcal{F})$ is the maximum number of edges in an $\mathcal{F}$-free subgraph of $G^r_{n,p}$, where $G^r_{n,p}$ is the…

We study the Tur\'an number of long cycles in random graphs and in pseudo-random graphs. Denote by $ex(G(n,p),H)$ the random variable counting the number of edges in a largest subgraph of $G(n,p)$ without a copy of $H$. We determine the…

Let $F$ be a fixed graph. The rainbow Tur\'an number of $F$ is defined as the maximum number of edges in a graph on $n$ vertices that has a proper edge-coloring with no rainbow copy of $F$ (where a rainbow copy of $F$ means a copy of $F$…

The classical extremal function for a graph $H$, $ex(K_n, H)$ is the largest number of edges in a subgraph of $K_n$ that contains no subgraph isomorphic to $H$. Note that defining $ex(K_n, H-ind)$ by forbidding induced subgraphs isomorphic…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a 3-graph on $n$ vertices. The matching number $\nu(\mathcal{H})$ is defined as the maximum number of disjoint edges in $\mathcal{H}$. The generalized triangle $F_5$ is a 3-graph on the vertex set $\{a,b,c,d,e\}$ with…
