We prove that $s_r(K_{k+1}) = O(k^3 r^3 \log^3 k)$, where $s_r(K_k)$ is the Ramsey parameter introduced by Burr, Erd\H{o}s and Lov\'{a}sz in 1976, which is defined as the smallest minimum degree of a graph $G$ such that any $r$-colouring of…
Given two graphs $G_1, G_2$, the connected size Ramsey number ${\hat{r}}_c(G_1,G_2)$ is defined to be the minimum number of edges of a connected graph $G$, such that for any red-blue edge colouring of $G$, there is either a red copy of…
Let $n,r,k,s$ be positive integers with $n,k\ge 2$. The generalized Ramsey number $R(n,r;k,s)$ is the smallest positive integer $p$ such that for every graph $G$ of order $p$, either $G$ contains a subgraph induced by $n$ vertices with at…
For graphs $G$ and $H$, we consider Ramsey numbers $r(G,H)$ with tight lower bounds, namely, $r(G,H) \geq (\chi(G)-1)(|H|-1)+1,$ where $\chi(G)$ denotes the chromatic number of $G$ and $|H|$ denotes the number of vertices in $H$. We say $H$…
Burr and Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1976 that for every two integers $k>\ell\geqslant 0$ satisfying that $k\mathbb{Z}+\ell$ contains an even integer, an $n$-vertex graph containing no cycles of length $\ell$ modulo $k$ can contain at most a…
It was conjectured by Mkrtchyan, Petrosyan, and Vardanyan that every graph $G$ with $\Delta(G)-\delta(G) \le 1$ has a maximum matching $M$ such that any two $M$-unsaturated vertices do not share a neighbor. In this note, we confirm the…
For $k \ge 4$, a loose $k$-cycle $C_k$ is a hypergraph with distinct edges $e_1, e_2, \ldots, e_k$ such that consecutive edges (modulo $k$) intersect in exactly one vertex and all other pairs of edges are disjoint. Our main result is that…
An ordered graph is a pair $\mathcal{G}=(G,\prec)$ where $G$ is a graph and $\prec$ is a total ordering of its vertices. The ordered Ramsey number $\overline{R}(\mathcal{G})$ is the minimum number $N$ such that every $2$-coloring of the…
A graph $G = (V,E)$ is globally rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ if for any generic placement $p : V \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^d$ of the vertices, the edge lengths $||p(u) - p(v)||, uv \in E$ uniquely determine $p$, up to congruence. In this paper we…
The Linear Arboricity Conjecture asserts that the linear arboricity of a graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ is $\lceil (\Delta+1)/2 \rceil$. For a $2k$-regular graph $G$, this implies $la(G) = k+1$. In this note, we utilize a network flow…
Gy\'arf\'as, S\'ark\"ozy and Szemer\'edi proved that the $2$-color Ramsey number $R(\mathcal{C}^k_n,\mathcal{C}^k_n)$ of a $k$-uniform loose cycle $\mathcal{C}^k_n$ is asymptotically $\frac{1}{2}(2k-1)n,$ generating the same result for…
Given a graph $G$, its $2$-color Tur\'{a}n number $\mathrm{ex}^{(2)}(n,G)$ is the largest number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph whose edges can be colored with two colors avoiding a monochromatic copy of $G$. Let…
A well-known result of Mantel asserts that every $n$-vertex triangle-free graph $G$ has at most $\lfloor n^2/4 \rfloor$ edges. Moreover, Erd\H{o}s proved that if $G$ is further non-bipartite, then $e(G)\le \lfloor {(n-1)^2}/{4}\rfloor +1$.…
We show that for any positive integer $r$ there exists an integer $k$ and a $k$-colouring of the edges of $K_{2^{k}+1}$ with no monochromatic odd cycle of length less than $r$. This makes progress on a problem of Erd\H{o}s and Graham and…
In [5] Graham and Rothschild consider a geometric Ramsey problem: finding the least n such that if all edges of the complete graph on the points {+1,-1}^n are 2-colored, there exist 4 coplanar points such that the 6 edges between them are…
A graph is $k$-planar if it can be drawn in the plane such that no edge is crossed more than $k$ times. While for $k=1$, optimal $1$-planar graphs, i.e., those with $n$ vertices and exactly $4n-8$ edges, have been completely characterized,…
Let $f^{(r)}(n;s,k)$ denote the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph containing no subgraph with $k$ edges and at most $s$ vertices. Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'os [New directions in the theory of graphs (Proc. Third…
For any positive integers $k$ and $n$, let $B_n^{(k)}$ be the book graph consisting of $n$ copies of the complete graph $K_{k+1}$ sharing a common $K_k$. Let $C_m$ be a cycle of length $m$. Prior work by Allen, \L uczak, Polcyn, and Zhang…
An old conjecture of Ringel states that every tree with $m$ edges decomposes the complete graph $K_{2m+1}$. The best known lower bound for the order of a complete graph which admits a decomposition by every given tree with $m$ edges is…
We investigate Ramsey numbers of bounded degree graphs and provide an interpolation between known results on the Ramsey numbers of general bounded degree graphs and bounded degree graphs of small bandwidth. Our main theorem implies that…
