An ordered hypergraph is a hypergraph whose vertex set is linearly ordered, and a convex geometric hypergraph is a hypergraph whose vertex set is cyclically ordered. Extremal problems for ordered and convex geometric graphs have a rich…

Nikiforov conjectured that for a given integer $k\ge 2$, any graph $G$ of sufficiently large order $n$ with spectral radius $\mu(G)\geq \mu(S_{n,k})$ (or $\mu(G)\ge \mu(S_{n,k}^+))$ contains $C_{2k+1}$ or $C_{2k+2}$(or $C_{2k+2}$), unless…

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…

A fundamental result in extremal graph theory is attributed to Mantel's theorem, which states that every graph on $n$ vertices with more than $\lfloor n^2/4 \rfloor$ edges must contain a triangle. Lov\'{a}sz and Simonovits (1975) provided a…

A hypergraph $\mathcal{F}$ is non-trivial intersecting if every two edges in it have a nonempty intersection but no vertex is contained in all edges of $\mathcal{F}$. Mubayi and Verstra\"{e}te showed that for every $k \ge d+1 \ge 3$ and $n…

We give lower bounds on the size and total size of clique partitions of a graph in terms of its spectral radius and minimum degree, and derive a spectral upper bound for the maximum number of edge-disjoint $t$-cliques. The extremal graphs…

One powerful method for upper-bounding the largest independent set in a graph is the Hoffman bound, which gives an upper bound on the largest independent set of a graph in terms of its eigenvalues. It is easily seen that the Hoffman bound…

The spanning tree packing number of a graph $G$, denoted by $\tau(G)$, is the maximum number of edge-disjoint spanning trees contained in $G$. The study of $\tau(G)$ is one of the classic problems in graph theory. Cioab\u{a} and Wong…

A graph is called $K$-almost regular if its maximum degree is at most $K$ times the minimum degree. Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits showed that for a constant $0< \varepsilon< 1$ and a sufficiently large integer $n$, any $n$-vertex graph with more…

The spread of a graph $G$ is the difference $\lambda_1 - \lambda_n$ between the largest and smallest eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. Breen, Riasanovsky, Tait and Urschel recently determined the graph on $n$ vertices with maximum spread…

In a generalized Tur\'an problem, two graphs $H$ and $F$ are given and the question is the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $F$-free graph of order $n$. In this paper, we study the number of double stars $S_{k,l}$ in triangle-free…

Given a graph $F$ and an integer $r \ge 2$, a partition $\widehat{F}$ of the edge set of $F$ into at most $r$ classes, and a graph $G$, define $c_{r, \widehat{F}}(G)$ as the number of $r$-colorings of the edges of $G$ that do not contain a…

Let $G$ be a graph with adjacency matrix $A(G)$ and degree diagonal matrix $D (G)$. In 2017, Nikiforov defined the matrix $A_\alpha(G) = \alpha D(G) + (1-\alpha)A(G)$ for any real $\alpha\in[0,1]$. The largest eigenvalue of $A_\alpha(G)$ is…

Given a family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, the Tur\'{a}n number $ex(n, \mathcal{F})$ denotes the maximum number of edges in any $\mathcal{F}$-free graph on $n$ vertices. Recently, Alon and Frankl studied of maximum number of edges in an…

Let $\textbf{k} := (k_1,\ldots,k_s)$ be a sequence of natural numbers. For a graph $G$, let $F(G;\textbf{k})$ denote the number of colourings of the edges of $G$ with colours $1,\dots,s$ such that, for every $c \in \{1,\dots,s\}$, the edges…

An $r$-uniform hypergraph is linear if every two edges intersect in at most one vertex. The $r$-expansion $F^{r}$ of a graph $F$ is the $r$-uniform hypergraph obtained from $F$ by enlarging each edge of $F$ with a vertex subset of size…

For a graph G and an integer t we let mcc_t(G) be the smallest m such that there exists a coloring of the vertices of G by t colors with no monochromatic connected subgraph having more than m vertices. Let F be any nontrivial minor-closed…

A graph is trivial if it contains one vertex and no edges. The essential connectivity $\kappa^{\prime}$ of $G$ is defined to be the minimum number of vertices of $G$ whose removal produces a disconnected graph with at least two non-trivial…

For two $r$-graphs $\mathcal{T}$ and $\mathcal{H}$, let $\text{ex}_{r}(n,\mathcal{T},\mathcal{H})$ be the maximum number of copies of $\mathcal{T}$ in an $n$-vertex $\mathcal{H}$-free $r$-graph. The determination of Tur\'{a}n number…

For $n \geq 15$, we prove that the minimum number of triangles in an $n$-vertex $K_4$-saturated graph with minimum degree 4 is exactly $2n-4$, and that there is a unique extremal graph. This is a triangle version of a result of Alon,…
