Let $G$ be an $n$-vertex graph and let $L:V(G)\rightarrow P(\{1,2,3\})$ be a list assignment over the vertices of $G$, where each vertex with list of size 3 and of degree at most 5 has at least three neighbors with lists of size 2. We can…

Given a graph $G$, we say a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on the same vertex set contains a Berge-$G$ if there exists an injection $\phi:E(G)\to E(H)$ such that $e\subseteq\phi(e)$ for each edge $e\in E(G)$. A hypergraph $H$ is…

For non-decreasing sequence of integers $S=(a_1,a_2, \dots, a_k)$, an $S$-packing coloring of $G$ is a partition of $V(G)$ into $k$ subsets $V_1,V_2,\dots,V_k$ such that the distance between any two distinct vertices $x,y \in V_i$ is at…

For a graph $G$, let $f_2(G)$ denote the largest number of vertices in a $2$-regular subgraph of $G$. We determine the minimum of $f_2(G)$ over $3$-regular $n$-vertex simple graphs $G$. To do this, we prove that every $3$-regular multigraph…

Any $n$-vertex $3$-graph with minimum codegree at least $\lfloor n/3\rfloor$ must have a spanning tight component, but immediately below this threshold it is possible for no tight component to span more than $\lceil 2n/3\rceil$ vertices.…

A recent paper of Balogh, Li and Treglown initiated the study of Dirac-type problems for ordered graphs. In this paper we prove a number of results in this area. In particular, we determine asymptotically the minimum degree threshold for…

The codegree Tur\'an density $\gamma(F)$ of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $F$ is the minimum real number $\gamma \ge 0$ such that every $k$-uniform hypergraph on sufficiently many $n$ vertices, in which every set of $k-1$ vertices is contained…

Ryser's conjecture says that for every $r$-partite hypergraph $H$ with matching number $\nu(H)$, the vertex cover number is at most $(r-1)\nu(H)$. This far reaching generalization of K\"onig's theorem is only known to be true for $r\leq 3$,…

A subgraph $H$ of a multigraph $G$ is overfull if $ |E(H) | > \Delta(G) \lfloor |V(H)|/2 \rfloor$. Analogous to the Overfull Conjecture proposed by Chetwynd and Hilton in 1986, Stiebitz et al. in 2012 formed the multigraph version of the…

Given graphs $F$ and $G$, a perfect $F$-tiling in $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of $F$ in $G$ that together cover all the vertices in $G$. The study of the minimum degree threshold forcing a perfect $F$-tiling in a graph $G$…

The \emph{minimum positive co-degree} of a non-empty $r$-graph ${H}$, denoted $\delta_{r-1}^+( {H})$, is the maximum $k$ such that if $S$ is an $(r-1)$-set contained in a hyperedge of $ {H}$, then $S$ is contained in at least $k$ distinct…

The smallest number of cliques, covering all edges of a graph $ G $, is called the (edge) clique cover number of $ G $ and is denoted by $ cc(G) $. It is an easy observation that for every line graph $ G $ with $ n $ vertices, $cc(G)\leq n…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with maximum degree $\Delta$. A classic result of Vizing shows that $\chi'(G)$, the chromatic index of $G$, is either $\Delta$ or $\Delta+1$. We say $G$ is of \emph{Class 1} if $\chi'(G)=\Delta$, and is of…
