The extremal number of a graph $H$, denoted by $\mbox{ex}(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in a graph on $n$ vertices that does not contain $H$. The celebrated K\H{o}v\'ari-S\'os-Tur\'an theorem says that for a complete bipartite graph…

The main topic considered is maximizing the number of cycles in a graph with given number of edges. In 2009, Kir\'aly conjectured that there is constant $c$ such that any graph with $m$ edges has at most $(1.4)^m$ cycles. In this paper, it…

Given a positive integer $t$, let $P_{t,2}$ be the digraph consisting of $t$ directed paths of length 2 with the same initial and terminal vertices. In this paper, we study the maximum size of $P_{t+1,2}$-free digraphs of order $n$, which…

The nearly complete bipartite graph $G(m,n,k)$ is obtained by removing $k$ independent edges from the complete bipartite graph $K_{m,n}$. In this paper, we prove that for any nearly complete bipartite graph $G(m,n,k)$ with $m, n\geq 3$, and…

Fix a color-critical graph $H$ with $\chi(H)=r+1\geq 3$. Simonovits' chromatic critical edge theorem and Nikiforov's spectral chromatic critical edge theorem imply that $T_{n,r}$ is the extremal graph with the maximum size and the maximum…

A graph is $2$-planar if it has local crossing number two, that is, it can be drawn in the plane such that every edge has at most two crossings. A graph is maximal $2$-planar if no edge can be added such that the resulting graph remains…

Let $f^{(r)}(n;s,k)$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph containing no subgraph with $k$ edges and at most $s$ vertices. Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'os [New directions in the theory of graphs (Proc. Third…

In 1975, Bollob\'{a}s, Erd\H{o}s, and Szemer\'{e}di asked for the smallest $\tau$ such that an $n \times n \times n$ tripartite graph with minimum degree $n + \tau$ must contain $K_{t, t, t}$, conjecturing that $\tau = \mathcal{O}(n^{1/2})$…

In this note, we fix a graph $H$ and ask into how many vertices can each vertex of a clique of size $n$ can be "split" such that the resulting graph is $H$-free. Formally: A graph is an $(n,k)$-graph if its vertex sets is a pairwise…

We focus on counting the number of labeled graphs on $n$ vertices and treewidth at most $k$ (or equivalently, the number of labeled partial $k$-trees), which we denote by $T_{n,k}$. So far, only the particular cases $T_{n,1}$ and $T_{n,2}$…

For a finite, simple, and undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and largest eigenvalue $\lambda$, Nikiforov introduced the degree deviation of $G$ as $s=\sum_{u\in V(G)}\left|d_G(u)-\frac{2m}{n}\right|$. Contributing to a…

Let $f^{(r)}(n;s,k)$ be the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph not containing a subhypergraph with $k$ edges on at most $s$ vertices. Recently, Delcourt and Postle, building on work of Glock, Joos, Kim,…

We prove that, for every integer $d$ with $d\geq 3$, there is an approximation algorithm for the maximum induced matching problem restricted to $\{ C_3,C_5\}$-free $d$-regular graphs with performance ratio $0.708\bar{3}d+0.425$, which…

Let $G$ be a graph each component of which has order at least 3, and let $G$ have order $n$, size $m$, total domination number $\gamma_t$ and maximum degree $\Delta(G)$. Let $\Delta = 3$ if $\Delta(G) = 2$ and $\Delta = \Delta (G)$ if…

The size of a largest independent set of vertices in a given graph $G$ is denoted by $\alpha(G)$ and is called its independence number (or stability number). Given a graph $G$ and an integer $K,$ it is NP-complete to decide whether…

Given a graph $H$ and a natural number $n$, the extremal number $\mathrm{ex}(n, H)$ is the largest number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph containing no copy of $H$. In this paper, we obtain a general upper bound for the extremal number of…

A multigraph $G$ is an $(s,q)$-graph if every $s$-set of vertices in $G$ supports at most $q$ edges of $G$, counting multiplicities. Mubayi and Terry posed the problem of determining the maximum of the product of the edge-multiplicities in…

The first Zagreb index $M_{1}$ of a graph is defined as the sum of the square of every vertex degree, and the second Zagreb index $M_{2}$ of a graph is defined as the sum of the product of vertex degrees of each pair of adjacent vertices.…

A good edge-labelling of a simple, finite graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for every ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. In this paper we prove that any graph on…

An $r$-graph is an $r$-regular graph with no odd cut of size less than $r$. A well-celebrated result due to Lov\'asz says that for such graphs the linear system $Ax = \textbf{1}$ has a solution in $\mathbb{Z}/2$, where $A$ is the $0,1$ edge…
