The biclique partition number of a graph $G= (V,E)$, denoted $bp(G)$, is 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 $…

The edge space $\mathcal{E}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the vector space $\mathbb{F}_2^{E(G)}$ with members naturally identified with subgraphs of $G$, and the $H$-space is the subspace $\mathcal{C}_H(G)$ of $ \mathcal{E}(G)$ spanned by copies of…

Given a graph $H$, a perfect $H$-factor in a graph $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of $H$ spanning $G$. K\"uhn and Osthus showed that the minimum degree threshold for a graph $G$ to contain a perfect $H$-factor is either given…

Let us say that a graph $G$ is Ramsey for a tuple $(H_1,\dots,H_r)$ of graphs if every $r$-coloring of the edges of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H_i$ in color $i$, for some $i \in [r]$. A famous conjecture of Kohayakawa and…

Houdr\'e and Tetali defined a class of isoperimetric constants $\varphi_p$ of graphs for $0 \leq p \leq 1$, and conjectured a Cheeger-type inequality for $\varphi_\frac12$ of the form $$\lambda_2 \lesssim \varphi_\frac12 \lesssim…

For a graph $H$, let $m(H,k)$ denote the number of vertices of degree $k$ in $H$. A conjecture of Alon and Wei states that for any $d\geq 3$, every $n$-vertex $d$-regular graph contains a spanning subgraph $H$ satisfying…

The famous Posa conjecture states that every graph of minimum degree at least 2n/3 contains the square of a Hamilton cycle. This has been proved for large n by Koml\'os, Sark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi. Here we prove that if p > n^{-1/2+\eps},…

Conlon, Gowers, Samotij, and Schacht showed that for a given graph $H$ and a constant $\gamma > 0$, there exists $C > 0$ such that if $p \ge Cn^{-1/m_2(H)}$ then asymptotically almost surely every spanning subgraph $G$ of the random graph…

This paper examines the structure of the largest subgraphs of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph, $G_{n,p}$, with a given matching number. This extends a result of Erd\H{o}s and Gallai who, in 1959, gave a classification of the structures…

Let $G_{n,p}$ be the standard Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi-Gilbert random graph and let $G_{n,n,p}$ be the random bipartite graph on $n+n$ vertices, where each $e\in [n]^2$ appears as an edge independently with probability $p$. For a graph $G=(V,E)$,…

The chromatic threshold $\delta_\chi(H,p)$ of a graph $H$ with respect to the random graph $G(n,p)$ is the infimum over $d > 0$ such that the following holds with high probability: the family of $H$-free graphs $G \subset G(n,p)$ with…

For two fixed graphs $T$ and $H$ let $ex(G(n,p),T,H)$ be the random variable counting the maximum number of copies of $T$ in an $H$-free subgraph of the random graph $G(n,p)$. We show that for the case $T=K_m$ and $\chi(H)> m$ the behavior…

A path decomposition of a graph G is a collection of edge-disjoint paths of G that covers the edge set of G. Gallai (1968) conjectured that every connected graph on n vertices admits a path decomposition of cardinality at most (n+1)/2.…

A randomly perturbed graph $G^p = G_\alpha \cup G_{n,p}$ is obtained by taking a deterministic $n$-vertex graph $G_\alpha = (V, E)$ with minimum degree $\delta(G)\geq \alpha n$ and adding the edges of the binomial random graph $G_{n,p}$…

A graph $G$ is $q$-Ramsey for another graph $H$ if in any $q$-edge-colouring of $G$ there is a monochromatic copy of $H$, and the classic Ramsey problem asks for the minimum number of vertices in such a graph. This was broadened in the…

A major question in the study of the Erd\H{o}s--R\'enyi random graph is to understand the probability that it contains a given subgraph. This study originated in classical work of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi (1960). More recent work studies this…
