For a family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, a graph $G$ is $\mathcal{F}$-universal if $G$ contains every graph in $\mathcal{F}$ as a (not necessarily induced) subgraph. For the family of all graphs on $n$ vertices and of maximum degree at most…

In 1964, Erd\H{o}s, Hajnal and Moon introduced a saturation version of Tur\'an's classical theorem in extremal graph theory. In particular, they determined the minimum number of edges in a $K_r$-free, $n$-vertex graph with the property that…

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…

Frankl and F\"uredi conjectured in 1989 that the maximum Lagrangian of all $r$-uniform hypergraphs of fixed size $m$ is realized by the minimum hypergraph $C_{r,m}$ under the colexicographic order. In this paper, we prove a weaker version…

For a finite family $\mathcal{F}$ of fixed graphs let $R_k(\mathcal{F})$ be the smallest integer $n$ for which every $k$-coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ yields a monochromatic copy of some $F\in\mathcal{F}$. We say that…

Let $\mathcal{D}_{n,\tau}$ be the set of all simple connected graphs of order $n$ and dissociation number $\tau.$ In this paper, we study the minimum size and the minimum spectral radius of graphs in $\mathcal{D}_{n,\tau}$ in connection…

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…

The $r$-expansion of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, denoted by $H^{(+r)}$, is an $r$-uniform hypergraph obtained by enlarging each $k$-edge of $H$ with a set of $r-k$ vertices of degree one. The random Tur\'an number…

For graphs $F$ and $H$, let $i(F)$ denote the inducibility of $F$ and let $i_H(F)$ denote the inducibility of $F$ over $H$-free graphs. We prove that for almost all graphs $F$ on a given number of vertices, $i_{K_k}(F)$ attains infinitely…

We establish that the optimal bound for the size of the smallest integral solution of the Oppenheim Diophantine approximation problem $\abs{Q(x)-\xi}< \epsilon$ for a generic ternary form $Q$ is $\abs{x}\ll \epsilon^{-1}$. We also establish…

Given a graph $T$ and a family of graphs $\mathcal{F}$, the generalized Tur\'an number $\mathrm{ex}(n,T,\mathcal{F})$ is the maximum number of copies of $T$ in an $n$-vertex $\mathcal{F}$-free graph. We prove a general theorem which states…

For a $k$-vertex graph $F$ and an $n$-vertex graph $G$, an $F$-tiling in $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of $F$ in $G$. For $r\in \mathbb{N}$, the $r$-independence number of $G$, denoted $\alpha_r(G)$ is the largest size of a…

For a given shape $S$ in the plane, one can ask what is the lowest possible density of a point set $P$ that pierces ("intersects", "hits") all translates of $S$. This is equivalent to determining the covering density of $S$ and as such is…

The Tur\'{a}n number $T(n,\alpha+1,r)$ is the minimum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-graph whose independence number does not exceed $\alpha$. For each $r\geq 2$, there exists $t_*(r)$ such that $T(n,\alpha+1,r) = t_*(r) \: n^r \:…

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…

For graphs $H$ and $F$ with chromatic number $\chi(F)=k$, we call $H$ strictly $F$-Tur\'an-good (or $(H, F)$ strictly Tur\'an-good) if the Tur\'an graph $T_{k-1}(n)$ is the unique $F$-free graph on $n$ vertices containing the largest number…
