Caro, Patk\'os, and Tuza initiated a systematic study of the bipartite Tur\'an number for trees, and in particular asked for the extremal number of edges in connected bipartite graphs with prescribed color-class sizes that contain no paths…
We start a systematic investigation concerning bipartite Tur\'an number for trees. For a graph $F$ and integers $1 \leq a \leq b$ we define: $(i)$\quad $ex_b(a, b, F)$ is the largest number of edges that an $F$-free bipartite graph can have…
The Tur\'an number of a graph H, ex(n;H), is the maximum number of edges in any graph on n vertices which does not contain H as a subgraph. Let P_l denote a path on l vertices, and kP_l denote k vertex-disjoint copies of P_l. We determine…
The bipartite Tur\'{a}n number of a graph $H$, denoted by $ex(m,n; H)$, is the maximum number of edges in any bipartite graph $G=(X,Y; E)$ with $|X|=m$ and $|Y|=n$ which does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. In this paper, we determined…
Given a graph $F$, the random Tur\'an problem asks to determine the maximum number of edges in an $F$-free subgraph of $G_{n,p}$. Prior to this work, the only bipartite graphs $F$ with known tight bounds included certain classes of complete…
Let $k\ge 2$ and $n_1\ge n_2\ge n_3\ge n_4$ be integers such that $n_4$ is sufficiently larger than $k$. We determine the maximum number of edges of a 4-partite graph with parts of sizes $n_1,\dots, n_4$ that does not contain $k$…

We investigate the terminal-pairability problem in the case when the base graph is a complete bipartite graph, and the demand graph is a (not necessarily bipartite) multigraph on the same vertex set. In computer science, this problem is…
The number of spanning trees in a graph $G$ is the total number of distinct spanning subgraphs of $G$ that are trees. In this paper we characterize the unique graph with a prescribed vertex (resp. edge) connectivity, minimum degree and…
Luo, Tian and Wu [Discrete Math. 345 (4) (2022) 112788] conjectured that for any tree $T$ with bipartition $(X,Y)$, every $k$-connected bipartite graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $k+w$, where $w=\max\{|X|,|Y|\}$, contains a tree…
Let $C \subseteq [r]^m$ be a code such that any two words of $C$ have Hamming distance at least $t$. It is not difficult to see that determining a code $C$ with the maximum number of words is equivalent to finding the largest $n$ such that…
The Turan number of a graph H, ex(n,H), is the maximum number of edges in a graph on n vertices which does not have H as a subgraph. We determine the Turan number and find the unique extremal graph for forests consisting of paths when n is…
Polynomial algorithms are given for the following two problems: given a graph with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, where $m \ge 3 n^{3/2}$, find a complete balanced bipartite subgraph with parts about $\ln n/(\ln (n^2/m))$, given a graph with…
The Tur\'{a}n number of a graph $H$, $ex(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in any graph of order $n$ which does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. Lidick\'{y}, Liu and Palmer determined $ex(n, F_m)$ for $n$ sufficiently large and proved…
In this paper, we investigate the Tur\'an exponent for $1$-subdivisions of graphs that are neither bipartite nor complete. Specifically, we establish an upper bound on the Tur\'an number of the 1-subdivision of $K_{s,t}^+$, where…
We determine the colored patterns that appear in any $2$-edge coloring of $K_{n,n}$, with $n$ large enough and with sufficient edges in each color. We prove the existence of a positive integer $z_2$ such that any $2$-edge coloring of…
The Tur\'{a}n number of a graph $H$, $ex(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in a simple graph of order $n$ which does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. Let $k\cdot P_3$ denote $k$ disjoint copies of a path on $3$ vertices. In this paper, we…
A bipartite covering of a (multi)graph $G$ is a collection of bipartite graphs, so that each edge of $G$ belongs to at least one of them. The capacity of the covering is the sum of the numbers of vertices of these bipartite graphs. In this…
In this paper we count all the subpaths of a given graph G; including the subpaths of length zero, and we call this quantity the subpath number of G. The subpath number is related to the extensively studied number of subtrees, as it can be…
The extremal number of a graph $H$, denoted by $\mbox{ex}(n,H)$, is the maximum number of edges in a graph on $n$ vertices that does not contain $H$. The celebrated K\H{o}v\'ari-S\'os-Tur\'an theorem says that for a complete bipartite graph…
