In this paper we present a novel approach in extremal set theory which may be viewed as an asymmetric version of Katona's permutation method. We use it to find more Tur\'an numbers of hypergraphs in the Erd\H{o}s--Ko--Rado range. An…

Generalized Tur\'an problems ask for the maximum number of copies of a graph $H$ in an $n$-vertex, $F$-free graph, denoted by ex$(n,H,F)$. We show how to extend the new, localized approach of Brada\v{c}, Malec, and Tompkins to generalized…

For a $k$-uniform hypergraph (or simply $k$-graph) $F$, the codegree Tur\'{a}n density $\pi_{\mathrm{co}}(F)$ is the infimum over all $\alpha$ such that any $n$-vertex $k$-graph $H$ with every $(k-1)$-subset of $V(H)$ contained in at least…

The $3$-uniform tight $\ell$-cycle $C_\ell^{3}$ is the $3$-graph on $\{1,\dots,\ell\}$ consisting of all $\ell$ consecutive triples in the cyclic order. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be either the pair $\{C_{4}^{3}, C_{5}^{3}\}$ or the single tight…

The Tur\'an density $\pi(\cal F)$ of a family $\cal F$ of $r$-graphs is the limit as $n\to\infty$ of the maximum edge density of an $\cal F$-free $r$-graph on $n$ vertices. Erdos [Israel J. Math 2 (1964) 183--190] proved that no Tur\'an…

We use the polynomial method of Guth and Katz to establish stronger and {\it more efficient} regularity and density theorems for such $k$-uniform hypergraphs $H=(P,E)$, where $P$ is a finite point set in ${\mathbb R}^d$, and the edge set…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $r$-uniform hypergraphs. The random Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}(G^r_{n,p},\mathcal{F})$ is the maximum number of edges in an $\mathcal{F}$-free subgraph of $G^r_{n,p}$, where $G^r_{n,p}$ is the…

The thesis concentrates on two problems in discrete geometry, whose solutions are obtained by analytic, probabilistic and combinatoric tools. The first chapter deals with the strong polarization problem. This states that for any sequence…

Recently, Berge theta hypergraphs have received special attention due to the similarity with Berge even cycles. Let $r$-uniform Berge theta hypergraph $\Theta_{\ell,t}^{B}$ be the $r$-uniform hypergraph consisting of $t$ internally disjoint…

A classical conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os asks to determine the Tur\'an number of a tree. We consider variants of this problem in the settings of hypergraphs and multi-hypergraphs. In particular, for all $k$ and $r$, with $r \ge k…

We provide a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm that, for a given $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ with $n$ vertices and edge density $d$, finds a complete $k$-partite subgraph of $H$ with parts of size at least ${c(d, k)(\log…

In this paper we initiate a systematic study of the Tur\'an problem for edge-ordered graphs. A simple graph is called $\textit{edge-ordered}$, if its edges are linearly ordered. An isomorphism between edge-ordered graphs must respect the…

The generalized Tur\'an problem $ext(n,T,F)$ is to determine the maximal number of copies of a graph $T$ that can exist in an $F$-free graph on $n$ vertices. Recently, Gerbner and Palmer noted that the solution to the generalized Tur\'an…

A Berge path of length $k$ in an $r$-uniform hypergraph is a collection of $k$ hyperedges $h_1,\dots,h_k$ and $k+1$ vertices $v_1,\dots,v_{k+1}$ such that $v_i, v_{i+1}\in h_i$ for each $1\le i\le k$. Gy\H{o}ri, Katona and Lemons…

We show that the set $\Pi^{(k)}$ of Tur\'an densities of $k$-uniform hypergraphs has infinitely many accumulation points in $[0,1)$ for every $k \geq 3$. This extends an earlier result of ours showing that $\Pi^{(k)}$ has at least one such…

We consider extremal problems for subgraphs of pseudorandom graphs. For graphs $F$ and $\Gamma$ the generalized Tur\'an density $\pi_F(\Gamma)$ denotes the density of a maximum subgraph of $\Gamma$, which contains no copy of~$F$. Extending…
