In data transmission networks, the availability of data transmission is equivalent to the existence of the fractional factor of the corresponding graph which is generated by the network. Research on the existence of fractional factors under…

Given a graph $G$ and an integer $r\ge 1$, the $r$th power $G^r$ of $G$ is the graph obtained from $G$ by adding edges for all pairs of distinct vertices at distance at most $r$ from each other. We focus on two basic structural properties…

The k-core of a graph G is the maximal subgraph of G having minimum degree at least k. In 1996, Pittel, Spencer and Wormald found the threshold $\lambda_c$ for the emergence of a non-trivial k-core in the random graph $G(n,\lambda/n)$, and…

We consider the question of determining the probability of triangle count deviations in the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs $G(n,m)$ and $G(n,p)$ with densities larger than $n^{-1/2}(\log{n})^{1/2}$. In particular, we determine the log…

In this short note, we prove the conjecture of Benjamini, Shinkar, and Tsur on the acquaintance time $AC(G)$ of a random graph $G \in G(n,p)$. It is shown that asymptotically almost surely $AC(G) = O(\log n / p)$ for $G \in G(n,p)$,…

For a graph $G$, denote by $t_r(G)$ (resp. $b_r(G)$) the maximum size of a $K_r$-free (resp. $(r-1)$-partite) subgraph of $G$. Of course $t_r(G) \geq b_r(G)$ for any $G$, and Tur\'an's Theorem says that equality holds for complete graphs.…

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…

We show that for each $r\ge 4$, in a density range extending up to, and slightly beyond, the threshold for a $K_r$-factor, the copies of $K_r$ in the random graph $G(n,p)$ are randomly distributed, in the (one-sided) sense that the…

Let $k,r \geq 2$ be two integers. We consider the problem of partitioning the hyperedge set of an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ into the minimum number $\chi_k'(H)$ of edge-disjoint subhypergraphs in which every vertex has either degree $0$ or…

Given a graph $G$ and an integer $\ell\ge 2$, we denote by $\alpha_{\ell}(G)$ the maximum size of a $K_{\ell}$-free subset of vertices in $V(G)$. A recent question of Nenadov and Pehova asks for determining the best possible minimum degree…

The longstanding Nash-Williams conjecture asserts that every $K_3$-divisible graph $G$ with $\delta(G)\ge 3n/4$ admits a triangle decomposition. In the random setting, Frankl and R\"odl showed that, with high probability, $G(n,p)$ contains…

Given $k\ge 2$ and two $k$-graphs ($k$-uniform hypergraphs) $F$ and $H$, an $F$-factor in $H$ is a set of vertex disjoint copies of $F$ that together cover the vertex set of $H$. Lenz and Mubayi were first to study the $F$-factor problems…

An $[a,b]$-factor of a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph $H$ such that $a\leq d_{H}(v)\leq b$ for each $v\in V(G)$. In this paper, we provide spectral conditions for the existence of an odd $[1,b]$-factor in a connected graph with minimum…

For a family $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs, a graph $G$ is called \emph{$\mathcal{F}$-universal} if $G$ contains every graph in $\mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. Let $\mathcal{F}_n(d)$ be the family of all graphs on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at…

Let $F$ be a graph on $r$ vertices and let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices. Then an $F$-factor in $G$ is a subgraph of $G$ composed of $n/r$ vertex-disjoint copies of $F$, if $r$ divides $n$. In other words, an $F$-factor yields a partition…

We prove that any triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $d$ contains a bipartite induced subgraph of minimum degree at least $d^2/(2n)$. This is sharp up to a logarithmic factor in $n$. Relatedly, we show that the…

We study the probability that the random graph $G(n,p)$ is triangle-free. When $p =o(n^{-1/2})$ or $p = \omega(n^{-1/2})$ the asymptotics of the logarithm of this probability are known via Janson's inequality in the former case and via…

We show that the probability that a random graph $G\sim G(n,p)$ contains no Hamilton cycle is $(1+o(1))Pr(\delta (G) < 2)$ for all values of $p = p(n)$. We also prove an analogous result for perfect matchings.
