A path in an edge colored graph is said to be a rainbow path if no two edges on the path have the same color. An edge colored graph is (strongly) rainbow connected if there exists a (geodesic) rainbow path between every pair of vertices.…

Let $G$ be a simple graph that is properly edge coloured with $m$ colours and let $\M=\{M_1,\ldots, M_m\}$ be the set of $m$ matchings induced by the colours in $G$. Suppose that $m\le n-n^{c}$, where $c>9/10$, and every matching in $\M$…

Following problems posed by Gy\'arf\'as, we show that for every $r$-edge-colouring of $K_n$ there is a monochromatic triple star of order at least $n/(r-1)$, improving a previous result by Ruszink\'o. An edge colouring of a graph is called…

A path in an edge-colored graph $G$ is called a rainbow path if no two edges of the path are colored the same. The minimum number of colors required to color the edges of $G$ such that every pair of vertices are connected by at least $k$…

An edge-colored graph is called \textit{rainbow graph} if all the colors on its edges are distinct. Given a positive integer $n$ and a graph $G$, the \textit{anti-Ramsey number} $ar(n,G)$ is defined to be the minimum number of colors $r$…

Let $G$ be a connected graph of chromatic number $k$. For a $k$-coloring $f$ of $G$, a full $f$-rainbow path is a path of order $k$ in $G$ whose vertices are all colored differently by $f$. We show that $G$ has a $k$-coloring $f$ such that…

A perfect matching M in an edge-colored complete bipartite graph K_{n,n} is rainbow if no pair of edges in M have the same color. We obtain asymptotic enumeration results for the number of rainbow matchings in terms of the maximum number of…

Let $\mathscr{F}$ be a family of graphs. A graph $G$ is $\mathscr{F}$-free if $G$ does not contain any $F\in \mathscr{F}$ as a subgraph. The Tur\'an number, denoted by $ex(n, \mathscr{F})$, is the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex…

We prove that any family $E_1, \ldots , E_{\lceil rn \rceil}$ of (not necessarily distinct) sets of edges in an $r$-uniform hypergraph, each having a fractional matching of size $n$, has a rainbow fractional matching of size $n$ (that is, a…

Let $P$ denote a 3-uniform hypergraph consisting of 7 vertices $a,b,c,d,e,f,g$ and 3 edges $\{a,b,c\}, \{c,d,e\},$ and $\{e,f,g\}$. It is known that the $r$-colored Ramsey number for $P$ is $R(P;r)=r+6$ for $r=2,3$, and that $R(P;r)\le 3r$…
