Let $f^{(r)}(n;s,k)$ be the maximum number of edges of an $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices not containing a subgraph with $k$ edges and at most $s$ vertices. In 1973, Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'os conjectured that the limit $$\lim_{n\to…

For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $\delta_1(H)$ denote the minimum vertex degree of $H$, and $\nu(H)$ denote the size of the largest matching in $H$. In this paper, we show that for any $k\geq 3$ and $\beta>0$, there exists an integer…

The Erd\H{o}s-S\'{o}s Conjecture states that if $G$ is a simple graph of order $n$ with average degree more than $k-2,$ then $G$ contains every tree of order $k$. In this paper, we prove that Erd\H{o}s-S\'{o}s Conjecture is true for…

We prove the Erd\H os--S\'os conjecture for trees with bounded maximum degree and large dense host graphs. As a corollary, we obtain an upper bound on the multicolour Ramsey number of large trees whose maximum degree is bounded by a…

A well-known conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and S\'os states that every graph with average degree exceeding $m-1$ contains every tree with $m$ edges as a subgraph. We propose a variant of this conjecture, which states that every graph of maximum…

A variant of the Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture, posed by Havet, Reed, Stein and Wood, states that every graph with minimum degree at least $\lfloor 2k/3 \rfloor$ and maximum degree at least $k$ contains a copy of every tree with $k$ edges.…

A simple graph more often than not contains adjacent vertices with equal degrees. This in particular holds for all pairs of neighbours in regular graphs, while a lot such pairs can be expected e.g. in many random models. Is there a…

The Erd\H{o}s-S\'{o}s Conjecture states that every graph with average degree more than $k-2$ contains all trees of order $k$ as subgraphs. In this paper, we consider a variation of the above conjecture: studying the maximum size of an…

We show that there exist linear $3$-uniform hypergraphs with $n$ vertices and $\Omega(n^2)$ edges which contain no copy of the $3 \times 3$ grid. This makes significant progress on a conjecture of F\"{u}redi and Ruszink\'{o}. We also…

Erd\H{o}s conjectured that every $n$-vertex triangle-free graph contains a subset of $\lfloor n/2\rfloor$ vertices that spans at most $n^2/50$ edges. Extending a recent result of Norin and Yepremyan, we confirm this conjecture for graphs…

The celebrated Andr\'{a}sfai--Erd\H{o}s--S\'{o}s Theorem from 1974 shows that every $n$-vertex triangle-free graph with minimum degree greater than $2n/5$ must be bipartite. Its extensions to $3$-uniform hypergraphs without the generalized…

We prove that the set of long cycles has the edge-Erd\H{o}s-P\'osa property: for every fixed integer $\ell\ge 3$ and every $k\in\mathbb{N}$, every graph $G$ either contains $k$ edge-disjoint cycles of length at least $\ell$ (long cycles) or…
