We prove that any quasirandom uniform hypergraph $H$ can be approximately decomposed into any collection of bounded degree hypergraphs with almost as many edges. In fact, our results also apply to multipartite hypergraphs and even to the…

The {\em disjointness graph} of a set system is a graph whose vertices are the sets, two being connected by an edge if and only if they are disjoint. It is known that the disjointness graph $G$ of any system of segments in the plane is {\em…

A subcoloring of a graph is a partition of its vertex set into subsets (called colors), each inducing a disjoint union of cliques. It is a natural generalization of the classical proper coloring, in which each color must instead induce an…

We study Ramsey properties of randomly perturbed $3$-uniform hypergraphs. For~$t\geq 2$, write $\tilde K^{(3)}_t$ to denote the $3$-uniform {\it expanded} clique hypergraph obtained from the complete graph $K_t$ by expanding each of the…

Paths $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ in a graph $G=(V,E)$ are mutually induced if any two distinct $P_i$ and $P_j$ have neither common vertices nor adjacent vertices. The Induced Disjoint Paths problem is to decide if a graph $G$ with $k$ pairs of…

We study 3-random-like graphs, that is, sequences of graphs in which the densities of triangles and anti-triangles converge to 1/8. Since the random graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,1/2}$ is, in particular, 3-random-like, this can be viewed as a weak…

Let $\mathcal G$ be a hypergraph whose edges are colored. An {\it $(\alpha,n)$-detachment} of $\mathcal G$ is a hypergraph obtained by splitting a vertex $\alpha$ into $n$ vertices, say $\alpha_1,\dots,\alpha_n$, and sharing the incident…

Sidorenko's conjecture states that, for all bipartite graphs $H$, quasirandom graphs contain asymptotically the minimum number of copies of $H$ taken over all graphs with the same order and edge density. While still open for graphs, the…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, a {\em homomorphism} from $G$ to $H$, or {\em $H$-coloring} of $G$, is an adjacency preserving map from the vertex set of $G$ to the vertex set of $H$. Writing ${\rm hom}(G,H)$ for the number of $H$-colorings…

The generalized $k$-connectivity of a graph $G$, denoted by $\kappa_k(G)$, is the minimum number of internally edge disjoint $S$-trees for any $S\subseteq V(G)$ with $|S|=k$. The generalized $k$-connectivity is a natural extension of the…

The regular number of a graph G denoted by reg(G) is the minimum number of subsets into which the edge set of G can be partitioned so that the subgraph induced by each subset is regular. In this work we answer to the problem posed as an…

In this paper we consider a natural extremal graph theoretic problem of topological sort, concerning the minimization of the (topological) connectedness of the independence complex of graphs in terms of its dimension. We observe that the…

For any countably infinite graph $G$, Ramsey's theorem guarantees an infinite monochromatic copy of $G$ in any $r$-coloring of the edges of the countably infinite complete graph $K_\mathbb{N}$. Taking this a step further, it is natural to…

An almost bipartite graph is a graph with a unique odd cycle. Levit and Mandrescu showed that in every non-K\"onig--Egerv\'ary almost bipartite graph the equalities $\textnormal{ker}(G)=\textnormal{core}(G)$, $\textnormal{corona}(G)\cup…

Let $G$ be a nontrivial edge-colored connected graph. An edge-cut $R$ of $G$ is called a {\it rainbow edge-cut} if no two edges of $R$ are colored with the same color. For two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$, if an edge-cut separates…

NP-complete problems should be hard on some instances but those may be extremely rare. On generic instances many such problems, especially related to random graphs, have been proven easy. We show the intractability of random instances of a…

A path in an edge-colored graph $G$ is called monochromatic if any two edges on the path have the same color. For $k\geq 2$, an edge-colored graph $G$ is said to be monochromatic $k$-edge-connected if every two distinct vertices of $G$ are…
