Alon and Krivelevich conjectured that if $G$ is a bipartite graph of maximum degree $\Delta$, then the choosability (or list chromatic number) of $G$ satisfies $\chi_{\ell}(G) = O \left ( \log \Delta \right )$. Currently, the best known…

Let ${\cal{F}}=\{F_1,F_2,\ldots\}$ be a sequence of graphs such that $F_n$ is a graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$. We show that there exists an absolute constant $C$ such that the vertices of any 2-edge-colored…

We study the problem of determining $sat(n,k,r)$, the minimum number of edges in a $k$-partite graph $G$ with $n$ vertices in each part such that $G$ is $K_r$-free but the addition of an edge joining any two non-adjacent vertices from…

For a family of sets $\mathcal{F}$, let $\omega(\mathcal{F}):=\sum_{\{A,B\}\subset \mathcal{F}}|A\cap B|$. In this paper, we prove that provided $n$ is sufficiently large, for any $\mathcal{F}\subset \binom{[n]}{k}$ with $|\mathcal{F}|=m$,…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is called 1-planar if it admits a drawing in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. In this paper, we study bipartite $1$-planar graphs with prescribed numbers of vertices in partite sets. Bipartite…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, let $\tau(G)$ denote the minimum number of pairwise edge disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ so that each edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one of them. It is easy to see that for every graph $G$, $\tau(G) \leq…

A classical result in extremal graph theory is Mantel's Theorem, which states that every maximum triangle-free subgraph of $K_n$ is bipartite. A sparse version of Mantel's Theorem is that, for sufficiently large $p$, every maximum…

Let $\alpha_{1} (G)$ denote the maximum size of an edge set that contains at most one edge from each triangle of $G$. Let $\tau_{B} (G)$ denote the minimum size of an edge set whose deletion makes $G$ bipartite. It was conjectured by Lehel…

A stability result due to Ren, Wang, Wang and Yang [SIAM J. Discrete Math. 38 (2024)] shows that if $3\le r \le 2k$ and $n\ge 318 (r-2)^2k$, and $G$ is a $C_{2k+1}$-free graph on $n$ vertices with $e(G)\ge \lfloor {(n-r+1)^2}/{4}\rfloor +{r…

For any positive integer $k$, we show that every maximal $C_{2k+1}$-free graph with at least $n^2/4-o(n^{3/2})$ edges contains an induced complete bipartite subgraph on $(1-o(1))n$ vertices. We also show that this is best possible.

Let $C_{s,t}$ be the complete bipartite geometric graph, with $s$ and $t$ vertices on two distinct parallel lines respectively, and all $s t$ straight-line edges drawn between them. In this paper, we show that every complete bipartite…

Let $k$ and $l$ be integers, both at least 2. A $(k,l)$-bipartite graph is an $l$-regular bipartite multigraph with coloured bipartite sets of size $k$. Define $\chi(k,l)$ and $\mu(k,l)$ to be the minimum and maximum order of automorphism…

In 1975 Bollob\'{a}s, Erd\H{o}s, and Szemer\'{e}di asked what minimum degree guarantees an octahedral subgraph $K_3(2)$ in any tripartite graph $G$ with $n$ vertices in each vertex class. We show that $\delta(G)\geq n+2n^{\frac{5}{6}}$…

One of the cornerstones of extremal graph theory is a result of F\"uredi, later reproved and given due prominence by Alon, Krivelevich and Sudakov, saying that if $H$ is a bipartite graph with maximum degree $r$ on one side, then there is a…

Let $I$ and $O$ denote two sets of vertices, where $I\cap O =\emptyset$, $|I| = n$, $|O| = r$, and $B_u(n,r)$ denote the set of unlabeled graphs whose edges connect vertices in $I$ and $O$. Recently, it was established…

Given a graph $F$ and an integer $r \ge 2$, a partition $\widehat{F}$ of the edge set of $F$ into at most $r$ classes, and a graph $G$, define $c_{r, \widehat{F}}(G)$ as the number of $r$-colorings of the edges of $G$ that do not contain a…

We prove that any $n$-vertex graph whose complement is triangle-free contains $n^2/12-o(n^2)$ edge-disjoint triangles. This is tight for the disjoint union of two cliques of order $n/2$. We also prove a corresponding stability theorem, that…

A bipartite biregular $(n,m;g)$-graph $G$ is a bipartite graph of even girth $g$ having the degree set $\{n,m\}$ and satisfying the additional property that the vertices in the same partite set have the same degree. An $(n,m;g)$-bipartite…

We study minimum degree conditions for which a graph with given odd girth has a simple structure. For example, the classical work of Andr\'asfai, Erd\H os, and S\'os implies that every $n$-vertex graph with odd girth $2k+1$ and minimum…

Given a graph $G$ on the vertex set $V$, the non-matching complex of $G$, $\mathsf{NM}_k(G)$, is the family of subgraphs $G' \subset G$ whose matching number $\nu(G')$ is strictly less than $k$. As an attempt to generalize the result by…
