Let $G$ be a graph and $\mathcal{F}$ a family of graphs. Define $\alpha_{\mathcal{F}}(G)$ as the maximum order of any induced subgraph of $G$ that belongs to the family $\mathcal{F}$. For the family $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs with…

In 2019, Fox, Tidor and Zhao (arXiv:1911.03427) proved an induced arithmetic removal lemma for linear patterns of complexity 1 in vector spaces over a fixed finite field. With no further assumptions on the pattern, this induced removal…

For two graphs $F,H$ and a positive integer $n$, the function $f_{F,H}(n)$ denotes the largest $m$ such that every $H$-free graph on $n$ vertices contains an $F$-free induced subgraph on $m$ vertices. This function has been extensively…

Consider a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $\alpha \binom{n}{2}$ edges which does not contain an induced $K_{2, t}$ ($t \geqslant 2$). How large does $\alpha$ have to be to ensure that $G$ contains, say, a large clique or some fixed subgraph…

We construct $n$-vertex graphs $G$ where $\epsilon n^2$ edges must be deleted to become triangle-free, which contain less than $\epsilon^{(C_{\text{new}}-o(1))\log_2 1/\epsilon}n^3$ triangles for $C_{\text{new}}= \frac{1}{4\log_2(4/3)}…

Given a family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, a graph $G$, and a positive integer $k$, the $\mathcal{F}$-Deletion problem asks whether we can delete at most $k$ vertices from $G$ to obtain a graph in $\mathcal{F}$. $\mathcal{F}$-Deletion…

Consider a graph $G$ with a path $P$ of order $n$. What conditions force $G$ to also have a long induced path? As complete bipartite graphs have long paths but no long induced paths, a natural restriction is to forbid some fixed complete…

Given a set D of nonnegative integers, we derive the asymptotic number of graphs with a givenvnumber of vertices, edges, and such that the degree of every vertex is in D. This generalizes existing results, such as the enumeration of graphs…

Call a simple graph $H$ of order $n$ well-separable, if by deleting a separator set of size $o(n)$ the leftover will have components of size at most $o(n)$. We prove, that bounded degree well-separable spanning subgraphs are easy to embed:…

Consider a graph $G$ with a long path $P$. When is it the case that $G$ also contains a long induced path? This question has been investigated in general as well as within a number of different graph classes since the 80s. We have recently…

We give an arithmetic version of the recent proof of the triangle removal lemma by Fox [Fox11], for the group $\mathbb{F}_2^n$. A triangle in $\mathbb{F}_2^n$ is a triple $(x,y,z)$ such that $x+y+z = 0$. The triangle removal lemma for…

We define a $(V_1, V_2, \ldots, V_k)$-partition for a given graph $H$ and graphical properties $P_1, P_2, \ldots, P_k$ as a partition where each $V_i$ induces a subgraph of $H$ with property $P_i$. Matamala (2007) extended this result by…

Fan-planar graphs were recently introduced as a generalization of 1-planar graphs. A graph is fan-planar if it can be embedded in the plane, such that each edge that is crossed more than once, is crossed by a bundle of two or more edges…

Let $\Gamma$ be an Abelian group and let $G$ be a simple graph. We say that $G$ is $\Gamma$-colorable if for some fixed orientation of $G$ and every edge labeling $\ell:E(G)\rightarrow \Gamma$, there exists a vertex coloring $c$ by the…

Kelly's lemma is a basic result on graph reconstruction. It states that given the deck of a graph $G$ on $n$ vertices, and a graph $F$ on fewer than $n$ vertices, we can count the number of subgraphs of $G$ that are isomorphic to $F$.…

Given a family ${\cal F}$ of graphs, and a positive integer $n$, the Tur\'an number $ex(n,{\cal F})$ of ${\cal F}$ is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph that does not contain any member of ${\cal F}$ as a subgraph. The order…
