Given a hypergraph $G$ and a subhypergraph $H$ of $G$, the \emph{odd Ramsey number} $r_{odd}(G,H)$ is the minimum number of colors needed to edge-color $G$ so that every copy of $H$ intersects some color class in an odd number of edges.…

Recently, Alon introduced the notion of an $H$-code for a graph $H$: a collection of graphs on vertex set $[n]$ is an $H$-code if it contains no two members whose symmetric difference is isomorphic to $H$. Let $D_{H}(n)$ denote the maximum…

For integer $n\geqslant 1$ and real $u$, let $\Delta(n,u):=|\{d:d\mid n,\,{\rm e}^u<d\leqslant {\rm e}^{u+1}\}|$. The Erd\H{o}s--Hooley Delta-function is then defined by $\Delta(n):=\max_{u\in{\mathbb R}}\Delta(n,u).$ We improve the current…

We consider extremal edge-coloring problems inspired by the theory of anti-Ramsey / rainbow coloring, and further by odd-colorings and conflict-free colorings. Let $G$ be a graph, and $F$ any given family of graphs. For every integer $n…

Erd\H{o}s asked for the largest size $f(n)$ of a subset of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ with no element dividing two others. We show that $f(n)=c_2\,n+o(n)$ for an effectively computable constant $c_2$, and moreover that the number $q(n)$ of such…

The size-Ramsey number $\hat{R}(F)$ of a graph $F$ is the smallest integer $m$ such that there exists a graph $G$ on $m$ edges with the property that any colouring of the edges of $G$ with two colours yields a monochromatic copy of $F$. In…

We address a problem which is a generalization of Tur\'an-type problems recently introduced by Imolay, Karl, Nagy and V\'ali. Let $F$ be a fixed graph and let $G$ be the union of $k$ edge-disjoint copies of $F$, namely $G =…

Let $H=(V,E)$ be a hypergraph, where $V$ is a set of vertices and $E$ is a set of non-empty subsets of $V$ called edges. If all edges of $H$ have the same cardinality $r$, then $H$ is a $r$-uniform hypergraph; if $E$ consists of all…

In 1975, P. Erd\"os proposed the problem of determining the maximum number $f(n)$ of edges in a graph of $n$ vertices in which any two cycles are of different lengths. In this paper, it is proved that $$f(n)\geq…

Let $f_r(n,v,e)$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices, in which the union of any $e$ distinct edges contains at least $v+1$ vertices. The study of $f_r(n,v,e)$ was initiated by Brown, Erd{\H{o}}s…

The generalized Kneser hypergraph $KG^{r}(n,k,s)$ is the hypergraph whose vertices are all the $k$-subsets of $\{1,\ldots ,n\}$, and edges are $r$-tuples of distinct vertices such that any pair of them has at most $s$ elements in their…

Hadwiger's Conjecture asserts that every $K_h$-minor-free graph is properly $(h-1)$-colourable. We prove the following improper analogue of Hadwiger's Conjecture: for fixed $h$, every $K_h$-minor-free graph is $(h-1)$-colourable with…

The altitude of a graph $G$, denoted $f(G)$, is the largest integer $k$ such that under each ordering of $E(G)$, there exists a path of length $k$ which traverses edges in increasing order. In 1971, Chv\'atal and Koml\'os asked for…

For all integers $k,d$ such that $k \geq 3$ and $k/2\leq d \leq k-1$, let $n$ be a sufficiently large integer {\rm(}which may not be divisible by $k${\rm)} and let $s\le \lfloor n/k\rfloor-1$. We show that if $H$ is a $k$-uniform hypergraph…

Let $f(n)$ be a function and $L$ be a graph. Denote by $RT(n,L,f(n))$ the maximum number of edges of an $L$-free graph on $n$ vertices with independence number less than $f(n)$. Erd\H os and S\'os asked if $RT\left(n, K_5, c\sqrt{n}\right)…

Let $\mathcal{O}_n$ be the set of all maximal outerplanar graphs of order $n$. Let $ar(\mathcal{O}_n,F)$ denote the maximum positive integer $k$ such that $T\in \mathcal{O}_n$ has no rainbow subgraph $F$ under a $k$-edge-coloring of $T$.…

We are given graphs $H_1,\dots,H_k$ and $F$. Consider an $F$-free graph $G$ on $n$ vertices. What is the largest sum of the number of copies of $H_i$? The case $k=1$ has attracted a lot of attention. We also consider a colored variant,…

Let $f(n,p,q)$ be the minimum number of colors necessary to color the edges of $K_n$ so that every $K_p$ is at least $q$-colored. We improve current bounds on the {7/4}n-3$, slightly improving the bound of Axenovich. We make small…

In this paper, we study the rainbow Erd\H{o}s-Rothschild problem with respect to $k$-term arithmetic progressions. For a set of positive integers $S \subseteq [n]$, an $r$-coloring of $S$ is \emph{rainbow $k$-AP-free} if it contains no…

In 1975, Erd\H{o}s asked for the maximum number of edges that an $n$-vertex graph can have if it does not contain two edge-disjoint cycles on the same vertex set. It is known that Tur\'an-type results can be used to prove an upper bound of…
