Sumner's universal tournament conjecture states that every $(2n-2)$-vertex tournament should contain a copy of every $n$-vertex oriented tree. If we know the number of leaves of an oriented tree, or its maximum degree, can we guarantee a…

A graph $G$ belongs to the class ${\rm ORTH}[h,s,t]$ for integers $h$, $s$, and $t$ if there is a pair $(T,{\cal S})$, where $T$ is a tree of maximum degree at most $h$, and ${\cal S}$ is a collection $(S_u)_{u\in V(G)}$ of subtrees $S_u$…

An identifying code of a closed-twin-free graph $G$ is a dominating set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that any two vertices in $G$ have a distinct intersection between their closed neighborhoods and $S$. It was conjectured that there exists…

We show that for all $\gamma > 0$ and $\Delta \in \mathbb{N}$, there is some $n_0$ such that, if $n \geq n_0$, then every oriented graph on $n$ vertices with minimum semidegree at least $(3/8 + \gamma)n$ contains a copy of each oriented…

We prove that there exists $C>0$ such that any $(n+Ck)$-vertex tournament contains a copy of every $n$-vertex oriented tree with $k$ leaves, improving the previously best known bound of $n+O(k^2)$ vertices to give a result tight up to the…

The class of all even-hole-free graphs has unbounded tree-width, as it contains all complete graphs. Recently, a class of (even-hole, $K_4$)-free graphs was constructed, that still has unbounded tree-width [Sintiari and Trotignon, 2019].…

The problem of determining the optimal minimum degree condition for a balanced bipartite graph on 2ms vertices to contain m vertex disjoint copies of K_{s,s} was solved by Zhao. Later Hladk\'y and Schacht, and Czygrinow and DeBiasio…

Motivated by a conjecture of Gy\'arf\'as, recently B\"ottcher, Hladk\'y, Piguet, and Taraz showed that every collection $T_1,\dots,T_t$ of trees on $n$ vertices with $\sum_{i=1}^te(T_i)\leq \binom{n}{2}$ and with bounded maximum degree, can…

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…

In this paper, we address the problem of packing large trees in $G_{n,p}$. In particular, we prove the following result. Suppose that $T_1, \dotsc, T_N$ are $n$-vertex trees, each of which has maximum degree at most $(np)^{1/6} / (\log…

Reed conjectured that for every graph, $\chi \leq \left \lceil \frac{\Delta + \omega + 1}{2} \right \rceil$ holds, where $\chi$, $\omega$ and $\Delta$ denote the chromatic number, clique number and maximum degree of the graph, respectively.…

We show that every graph $G$ of maximum degree $\Delta$ and sufficiently large order has a vertex cutset $S$ of order at most $\Delta$ that induces a subgraph $G[S]$ of maximum degree at most $\Delta-3$. For $\Delta\in \{ 4,5\}$, we refine…

We show that every $3$-connected $K_{2,\ell}$-minor free graph with minimum degree at least $4$ has maximum degree at most $7\ell$. As a consequence, we show that every 3-connected $K_{2,\ell}$-minor free graph with minimum degree at least…

This is the second of a series of four papers in which we prove the following relaxation of the Loebl-Komlos--Sos Conjecture: For every $\alpha>0$ there exists a number $k_0$ such that for every $k>k_0$ every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with at…

A minimal counterexample to the Erd\H{o}s-Gy\'arf\'as conjecture is a graph of minimum possible order and size with minimum degree at least 3 that contains no cycle whose length is a power of 2. Markstr\"om observed that any such graph must…

We study a generalization of the Erd\H{o}s-Falconer distance problem over finite fields. For a graph $G$, two embeddings $p, p': V(G) \to \mathbb{F}_q^d$ of a graph $G$ are congruent if for all edges $(v_i, v_j)$ of $G$ we have that…

For every positive integer $k$, we define the $k$-treedepth as the largest graph parameter $\mathrm{td}_k$ satisfying (i) $\mathrm{td}_k(\emptyset)=0$; (ii) $\mathrm{td}_k(G) \leq 1+ \mathrm{td}_k(G-u)$ for every graph $G$ and every vertex…

In 1980, Akiyama, Exoo and Harary posited the Linear Arboricity Conjecture which states that any graph $G$ of maximum degree $\Delta$ can be decomposed into at most $\left\lceil \frac{\Delta}{2}\right\rceil$ linear forests. (A forest is…

Treewidth is a graph parameter that plays a fundamental role in several structural and algorithmic results. We study the problem of decomposing a given graph $G$ into node-disjoint subgraphs, where each subgraph has sufficiently large…

We study minimum degree conditions under which a graph $G$ contains $k$th powers of paths and cycles of arbitrary specified lengths. We determine precise thresholds, assuming that the order of $G$ is large. This extends a result of Allen,…
