Given integers $r \geq 2$, $k \geq 3$ and $2 \leq s \leq \binom{k}{2}$, and a graph $G$, we consider $r$-edge-colorings of $G$ with no copy of a complete graph $K_k$ on $k$ vertices where $s$ or more colors appear, which are called…

For two graphs $G$ and $H$, the Tur\'{a}n number $ex(G,H)$ is the maximum number of edges in a subgraph of $G$ that contains no copy of $H$. Chen, Li, and Tu determined the Tur\'{a}n numbers $ex(K_{m,n},kK_2)$ for all $k\geq 1$ [7]. In this…

Let $\mathcal{G}(m,k)$ be the set of graphs with size $m$ and odd girth (the length of shortest odd cycle) $k$. In this paper, we determine the graph maximizing the spectral radius among $\mathcal{G}(m,k)$ when $m$ is odd. As byproducts, we…

In this paper, we prove two results about the signless Laplacian spectral radius $q(G)$ of a graph $G$ of order $n$ with maximum degree $\Delta$. Let $B_{n}=K_{2}+\overline{K_{n}}$ denote a book, i.e., the graph $B_{n}$ consists of $n$…

Let $spex(n,H_{minor})$ denote the maximum spectral radius of $n$-vertex $H$-minor free graphs. The problem on determining this extremal value can be dated back to the early 1990s. Up to now, it has been solved for $n$ sufficiently large…

Let $\lambda^{*}$ be the maximum spectral radius of connected irregular graphs on $n$ vertices with maximum degree $\Delta$. Liu, Shen and Wang (2007) conjectured that $\lim_{n\rightarrow…

In this paper, we study some extremal problems of three kinds of spectral radii of $k$-uniform hypergraphs (the adjacency spectral radius, the signless Laplacian spectral radius and the incidence $Q$-spectral radius). We call a connected…

The classical K\H{o}v\'ari-S\'os-Tur\'an theorem states that if $G$ is an $n$-vertex graph with no copy of $K_{s,t}$ as a subgraph, then the number of edges in $G$ is at most $O(n^{2-1/s})$. We prove that if one forbids $K_{s,t}$ as an…

Zykov's theorem shows that $r$-partite Tur\'{a}n graph uniquely has the maximum number of $K_t$ among all $n$-vertex $K_{r+1}$-free graphs for $2\le t\le r$. The clique tensor is a high-order extension of the adjacency matrix of a graph. Yu…

We prove that if the spectral radius of a graph G of order n is larger than the spectral radius of the r-partite Turan graph of the same order, then G contains various supergraphs of the complete graph of order r+1. In particular G contains…

The Spectral Problem is to describe possible spectra $\sigma (A_j)$ for an irreducible $n$-tuple of Hermitian operators s.t. $A_1+...+A_n$ is a scalar operator. In case when $m_j= | \sigma (A_j)|$ are finite and a rooted tree ${\rm…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a set of graphs. The planar Tur\'an number, $ex_\mathcal{P}(n,\mathcal{H})$, is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex planar graph which does not contain any member of $\mathcal{H}$ as a subgraph. When…

Given a graph $F$, an $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is a {\em Berge-$F$} if there is a bijection $\phi:E(F)\to E(\mathcal{H})$ such that $e\subseteq \phi(e)$ for each $e\in E(F)$. Given a family $\mathcal{F}$ of $r$-uniform…

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 graph is color-critical if it contains an edge whose deletion reduces its chromatic number. This class of graphs, including cliques and odd cycles, plays a central role in extremal graph theory. In this paper, following an influential…

It is well known that the spectral radius of a tree whose maximum degree is $D$ cannot exceed $2\sqrt{D-1}$. In this paper we derive similar bounds for arbitrary planar graphs and for graphs of bounded genus. It is proved that a the…

The Tur\'an number of a graph $H$, $\text{ex}(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in a graph on $n$ vertices which does not have $H$ as a subgraph. A wheel $W_n$ is an $n$-vertex graph formed by connecting a single vertex to all vertices…
