In 1964, Erd\H{o}s proposed the problem of estimating the Tur\'an number of the $d$-dimensional hypercube $Q_d$. Since $Q_d$ is a bipartite graph with maximum degree $d$, it follows from results of F\"uredi and Alon, Krivelevich, Sudakov…

A classical result of Sidorenko (1989) shows that the Tur\'{a}n density of every $r$-uniform hypergraph with three edges is bounded from above by $1/2$. For even $r$, this bound is tight, as demonstrated by Mantel's theorem on triangles and…

Let $\mathrm{rex}(n, F)$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph that is regular and does not contain $F$ as a subgraph. We give lower bounds on $\mathrm{rex}(n, F)$, that are best possible up to a constant factor, when…

As a variant of the famous Tur\'an problem, we study $\mathrm{rex}(n,F)$, the maximum number of edges that an $n$-vertex regular graph can have without containing a copy of $F$. We determine $\mathrm{rex}(n,K_{r+1})$ for all pairs of…

Confirming a conjecture of Vera T. S\'os in a very strong sense, we give a complete solution to Tur\'an's hypergraph problem for the Fano plane. That is we prove for $n\ge 8$ that among all $3$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices not…

The Tur\'an number of a graph $H$, denoted by $ex(n, H)$, is the maximum number of edges in any graph on $n$ vertices containing no $H$ as a subgraph. Let $P_{\ell}$ denote the path on $\ell$ vertices, $S_{\ell-1}$ denote the star on $\ell$…

The Ruzsa-Szemer\'{e}di $(6,3)$-problem can be equivalently stated as determining the maximum number of edge-disjoint triangles on $n$ vertices such that no triangle is formed by edges from three distinct triangle-copies. Gowers and Janzer…

A {\it simple $k$-coloring} of a multigraph $G$ is a decomposition of the edge multiset as a disjoint sum of $k$ simple graphs which are referred as colors. A subgraph $H$ of a multigraph $G$ is called {\it multicolored} if its edges…

We consider the Tur\'an problems of $2$-edge-colored graphs. A $2$-edge-colored graph $H=(V, E_r, E_b)$ is a triple consisting of the vertex set $V$, the set of red edges $E_r$ and the set of blue edges $E_b$ with $E_r$ and $E_b$ do not…

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

Tur\'an's famous tetrahedron problem is to compute the Tur\'an density of the tetrahedron $K_4^3$. This is equivalent to determining the maximum $\ell_1$-norm of the codegree vector of a $K_4^3$-free $n$-vertex $3$-uniform hypergraph. We…

Given a graph $L$, the Tur\'an number $\textrm{ex}(n,L)$ is the maximum possible number of edges in an $n$-vertex $L$-free graph. The study of Tur\'an number of graphs is a central topic in extremal graph theory. Although the celebrated…

A long-standing conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits asserts that for every rational number $r\in (1,2)$ there exists a bipartite graph $H$ such that $\ex(n,H)=\Theta(n^r)$. So far this conjecture is known to be true only for rationals of…

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…

An $r$-graph is an $r$-uniform hypergraph tree (or $r$-tree) if its edges can be ordered as $E_1,\ldots, E_m$ such that $\forall i>1 \, \exists \alpha(i)<i$ such that $E_i\cap (\bigcup_{j=1}^{i-1} E_j)\subseteq E_{\alpha(i)}$. The Tur\'an…
