The celebrated K\H{o}v\'ari-S\'os-Tur\'an theorem states that any $n$-vertex graph containing no copy of the complete bipartite graph $K_{s,s}$ has at most $O_s(n^{2-1/s})$ edges. In the past two decades, motivated by the applications in…
A bipartite graph $G$ is semi-algebraic in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if its vertices are represented by point sets $P,Q \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and its edges are defined as pairs of points $(p,q) \in P\times Q$ that satisfy a Boolean combination of a…
In 1991 Gy\H ori, Pach, and Simonovits proved that for any bipartite graph $H$ containing a matching avoiding at most 1 vertex, the maximum number of copies of $H$ in any large enough triangle-free graph is achieved in a balanced complete…
A graph whose vertices are points in the plane and whose edges are noncrossing straight-line segments of unit length is called a \emph{matchstick graph}. We prove two somewhat counterintuitive results concerning the maximum number of edges…
Since planar triangle-free graphs are 3-colourable, such a graph with n vertices has an independent set of size at least n/3. We prove that unless the graph contains a certain obstruction, its independence number is at least n/(3-epsilon)…
We determine the minimal density of triangles in a tripartite graph with prescribed edge densities. This extends a previous result of Bondy, Shen, Thomass\'e and Thomassen characterizing those edge densities guaranteeing the existence of a…
Let the Andr\'{a}sfai graph $\mathrm{And}_k$ be defined as the graph with vertex set $\{v_0,v_1,...c, v_{3k-2}\}$ and two vertices $v_i$ and $v_j$ being adjacent iff $|i-j| \equiv 1\mod 3$. The graphs $\mathrm{And}_k$ are maximal…
Let the bipartite Tur\'an number $ex(m,n,H)$ of a graph $H$ be the maximum number of edges in an $H$-free bipartite graph with two parts of sizes $m$ and $n$, respectively. In this paper, we prove that $ex(m,n,C_{2t})=(t-1)n+m-t+1$ for any…
For two graphs $T$ and $H$ with no isolated vertices and for an integer $n$, let $ex(n,T,H)$ denote the maximum possible number of copies of $T$ in an $H$-free graph on $n$ vertices. The study of this function when $T=K_2$ is a single edge…
The obstruction set for graphs with knotless embeddings is not known, but a recent paper of Goldberg, Mattman, and Naimi indicates that it is quite large. Almost all known obstructions fall into four Triangle-Y families and they ask if…
A variety of powerful extremal results have been shown for the chromatic number of triangle-free graphs. Three noteworthy bounds are in terms of the number of vertices, edges, and maximum degree given by Poljak \& Tuza (1994), and…
We study the problem of testing triangle freeness in the general graph model. This problem was first studied in the general graph model by Alon et al. (SIAM J. Discret. Math. 2008) who provided both lower bounds and upper bounds that depend…
A triangle decomposition of a graph is a partition of its edges into triangles. A fractional triangle decomposition of a graph is an assignment of a non-negative weight to each of its triangles such that the sum of the weights of the…
Inspired by a concept in comparative genomics, we investigate properties of randomly chosen members of G_1(m,n,t), the set of bipartite graphs with $m$ left vertices, n right vertices, t edges, and each vertex of degree at least one. We…
Let $\mathbb{S}_g$ be the orientable surface of genus $g$. We prove that the component structure of a graph chosen uniformly at random from the class $\mathcal{S}_g(n,m)$ of all graphs on vertex set $[n]=\{1,\dotsc,n\}$ with $m$ edges…
A graph is even-hole-free if it has no induced even cycles of length 4 or more. A cap is a cycle of length at least 5 with exactly one chord and that chord creates a triangle with the cycle. In this paper, we consider (cap, even hole)-free…
The maximum number of edges in a graph with matching number m and maximum degree d has been determined in [1] and [2], where some extremal graphs have also been provided. Then, a new question has emerged: how the maximum edge count is…
A fullerene graph is a cubic bridgeless plane graph with all faces of size 5 and 6. We show that that every fullerene graph on n vertices can be made bipartite by deleting at most sqrt{12n/5} edges, and has an independent set with at least…
We consider the minimum spanning tree problem on a weighted complete bipartite graph $K_{n_R, n_B}$ whose $n=n_R+n_B$ vertices are random, i.i.d. uniformly distributed points in the unit cube in $d$ dimensions and edge weights are the…
We numerically investigate typical graphs in a region of the Strauss model of random graphs with constraints on the densities of edges and triangles. This region, where typical graphs had been expected to be bipodal but turned out to be…
