Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ and size $m$, and let $\mathrm{mc}_{k}\left( G\right) $ be the maximum size of a $k$-cut of $G.$ It is shown that \[ \mathrm{mc}_{k}\left( G\right) \leq\frac{k-1}{k}\left( m-\frac{\mu_{\min }\left( G\right)…

The famous Erd\H{o}s-Gallai Theorem on the Tur\'an number of paths states that every graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges contains a path with at least $\frac{2m}{n}$ edges. In this note, we first establish a simple but novel extension of…

MaxCut is a classical NP-complete problem and a crucial building block in many combinatorial algorithms. The famous Edwards-Erd\H{o}s bound states that any connected graph on n vertices with m edges contains a cut of size at least $m/2 +…

In this paper, we show that every $O(m)$-edge-connected simple graph $G$ of size divisible by $m$ with minimum degree at least $2^{O(m)}$ has an edge-decomposition into isomorphic copies of any given tree $T$ of size $m$. Moreover, the…

We prove that any $n$-node graph $G$ with diameter $D$ admits shortcuts with congestion $O(\delta D \log n)$ and dilation $O(\delta D)$, where $\delta$ is the maximum edge-density of any minor of $G$. Our proof is simple, elementary, and…

In a sequence of four papers, we prove the following results (via a unified approach) for all sufficiently large $n$: (i) [1-factorization conjecture] Suppose that $n$ is even and $D \geq 2\lceil n/4\rceil -1$. Then every $D$-regular graph…

We consider the Max-Cut problem. Let $G = (V,E)$ be a graph with adjacency matrix $(a_{ij})_{i,j=1}^{n}$. Burer, Monteiro & Zhang proposed to find, for $n$ angles $\left\{\theta_1, \theta_2, \dots, \theta_n\right\} \subset [0, 2\pi]$,…
