Feigin-Semikhatov conjecture, now established, states algebraic isomorphisms between the cosets of the subregular $\mathcal{W}$-algebras and the principal $\mathcal{W}$-superalgebras of type A by their full Heisenberg subalgebras. It can be…

Biregular bipartite graphs have been proven to have similar edge distributions to random bipartite graphs and thus have nice pseudorandomness and expansion properties. Thus it is quite desirable to find a biregular bipartite spanning…

When $H$ is a forest, the Gy\'arf\'as-Sumner conjecture implies that every graph $G$ with no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$ and with bounded clique number has a stable set of linear size. We cannot prove that, but we prove that every…

A multigraph $G$ is near-bipartite if $V(G)$ can be partitioned as $I,F$ such that $I$ is an independent set and $F$ induces a forest. We prove that a multigraph $G$ is near-bipartite when $3|W|-2|E(G[W])|\ge -1$ for every $W\subseteq…

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…

We prove a generalization of the Shapiro-Shapiro conjecture on Wronskians of polynomials, allowing the Wronskian to have complex conjugate roots. We decompose the real Schubert cell according to the number of real roots of the Wronski map,…

Generalizing the concept of dense hypergraph, we say that a hypergraph is weakly dense, if no k in the half-open interval [2,sqrt(n)) is the degree of more than k^2 vertices. In our main result, we prove the famous Erdos-Faber-Lovasz…

The relation between the Wiener index $W(G)$ and the eccentricity $\varepsilon(G)$ of a graph $G$ is studied. Lower and upper bounds on $W(G)$ in terms of $\varepsilon(G)$ are proved and extremal graphs characterized. A Nordhaus-Gaddum type…

We prove that if an $n$-vertex graph $G$ is non-extremal and $T$ is a bounded degree tree on $n$ vertices, then $T\subset G$ even when the minimum degree of $G$ is less than $n/2$ by a linear term. We avoid the use of the Regularity lemma,…

Let $D=(V,A)$ be a digraph of order $n$ and let $W$ be any subset of $V$. We define the minimum semi-degree of $W$ in $D$ to be $\delta^0(W)=\mbox{min}\{\delta^+(W),\delta^-(W)\}$, where $\delta^+(W)$ is the minimum out-degree of $W$ in $D$…

In 2019, Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k asked whether every connected graph $G$ has a tree decomposition $(T, \mathcal{B})$ so that $T$ is a subgraph of $G$ and the width of $(T, \mathcal{B})$ is bounded by a function of the treewidth of $G$. We prove that…

Mubayi and Verstraete conjectured that if $T$ is a tree on $t + 1$ vertices, then any $n$-vertex graph $G$ with average degree $d$ contains at least \[ n d(d - 1) \cdots (d - t + 1) \] labeled copies of $T$ as long as $d$ is sufficiently…

This paper proves the reconstruction conjecture for graphs which are isomorphic to the cube of a tree. The proof uses the reconstructibility of trees from their peripheral vertex deleted subgraphs. The main result follows from (i)…

A digraph $D$ is $k$-linked if for every $2k$-tuple $ x_1,\ldots , x_k, y_1, \ldots , y_k$ of distinct vertices in $D$, there exist $k$ pairwise vertex-disjoint paths $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ such that $P_i$ starts at $x_i$ and ends at $y_i$,…

We prove that generically in $\text{Diff}^{1}_{m}(M)$, if an expanding $f$-invariant foliation $W$ of dimension $u$ is minimal and there is a periodic point of unstable index $u$, the foliation is stably minimal. By this we mean there is a…
