We introduce the Density Formula for (topological) drawings of graphs in the plane or on the sphere, which relates the number of edges, vertices, crossings, and sizes of cells in the drawing. We demonstrate its capability by providing…
A graph on $2k+1$ vertices consisting of $k$ triangles which intersect in exactly one common vertex is called a $k$-fan and denoted by $F_k$. This paper aims to determine the graphs of order $n$ that have the maximum (adjacency) spectral…
A \emph{$k$-planar graph} is a graph that can be drawn in the plane such that every edge is crossed at most $k$ times. For $k \leq 4$, Pach and T\'oth proved a bound of $(k+3)(n-2)$ on the total number of edges of a $k$-planar graph, which…
We consider the following generalization of the seminal Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem, due to Frankl. For k>= 2, let F be a k-wise intersecting family of r-subsets of an n element set X, i.e. any k sets in F have a nonempty intersection. If r<=…
Let $G$ be a simple graph with $2n$ vertices and a perfect matching. We denote by $f(G)$ and $F(G)$ the minimum and maximum forcing number of $G$, respectively. Hetyei obtained that the maximum number of edges of graphs $G$ with a unique…
The celebrated {Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado} Theorem states that for $n \geq 2k$ a family $\mathscr{F}$ of $k$ subsets of $[n]$ for which each pair of members of $\mathscr{F}$ have a non-empty intersection has size at most $\binom{n-1}{k-1}$ and for…
For a given graph $H$, the Ramsey number $r(H)$ is the minimum $N$ such that any 2-edge-coloring of the complete graph $K_N$ yields a monochromatic copy of $H$. Given a positive integer $n$, a \emph{fan }$F_n$ is a graph formed by $n$…
A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane such that each edge is crossed at most once. A graph, together with a 1-planar drawing is called 1-plane. Brandenburg et al. showed that there are maximal 1-planar graphs with only…
The codegree squared sum ${\rm co}_2(\cal F)$ of a family (hypergraph) $\cal F \subseteq \binom{[n]} k$ is defined to be the sum of codegrees squared $d(E)^2$ over all $E\in \binom{[n]}{k-1}$, where $d(E)=|\{F\in \cal F: E\subseteq F\}|$.…
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…
For $k\ge 3$, the $(k-2)$-uniform Tur\'an density $\pi_{k-2}(F)$ of a $k$-graph $F$ is the supremum of $d$ for which there are arbitrarily large $F$-free $k$-graphs that are uniformly $d$-dense with respect to the $k$-vertex cliques of…
A family $F$ of graphs on a fixed set of $n$ vertices is called triangle-intersecting if for any $G_1,G_2 \in F$, the intersection $G_1 \cap G_2$ contains a triangle. More generally, for a fixed graph $H$, a family $F$ is $H$-intersecting…
Let $G$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The double vertex graph $F_2(G)$ of $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the $2$-subsets of $V(G)$, where two vertices are adjacent in $F_2(G)$ if their symmetric difference is a pair of adjacent…
For integers $n \geq k \geq 1$, the {\em Kneser graph} $K(n, k)$ is the graph with vertex-set consisting of all the $k$-element subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$, where two $k$-element sets are adjacent in $K(n,k)$ if they are disjoint. We show…
For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $F$ let $\textrm{ex}(n,F)$ be the maximum number of edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $H$ which contains no copy of $F$. Determining or estimating $\textrm{ex}(n,F)$ is a classical and central problem…
A family $\mathcal F\subset {[n]\choose k}$ is $U(s,q)$ of for any $F_1,\ldots, F_s\in \mathcal F$ we have $|F_1\cup\ldots\cup F_s|\le q$. This notion generalizes the property of a family to be $t$-intersecting and to have matching number…
The spectral radius of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. Let $\mathcal{F}(\lambda)$ be the family of connected graphs of spectral radius $\le \lambda$. We show that $\mathcal{F}(\lambda)$ can be defined by a finite…
We call a family of sets intersecting, if any two sets in the family intersect. In this paper we investigate intersecting families $\mathcal{F}$ of $k$-element subsets of $[n]:=\{1,\ldots, n\},$ such that every element of $[n]$ lies in the…
A matching in a hypergraph $H$ is a set of pairwise disjoint hyperedges. The matching number $\alpha'(H)$ of $H$ is the size of a maximum matching in $H$. A subset $D$ of vertices of $H$ is a dominating set of $H$ if for every $v\in…
A topological graph is $k$-quasi-planar if it does not contain $k$ pairwise crossing edges. A 20-year-old conjecture asserts that for every fixed $k$, the maximum number of edges in a $k$-quasi-planar graph on $n$ vertices is $O(n)$. Fox…
