We study structural conditions in dense graphs that guarantee the existence of vertex-spanning substructures such as Hamilton cycles. It is easy to see that every Hamiltonian graph is connected, has a perfect fractional matching and,…
Konig's theorem states that the covering number and the matching number of a bipartite graph are equal. We prove a generalisation of this result, in which each point in one side of the graph is replaced by a subtree of a given tree. The…
We give a common matroidal generalisation of `A Cantor-Bernstein theorem for paths in graphs' by Diestel and Thomassen and `A Cantor-Bernstein-type theorem for spanning trees in infinite graphs' by ourselves.
Consider a host hypergraph $G$ which contains a spanning structure due to minimum degree considerations. We collect three results proving that if the edges of $G$ are sampled at the appropriate rate then the spanning structure still appears…
We prove that the Tate, Beilinson and Parshin conjectures are invariant under Homological Projective Duality (=HPD). As an application, we obtain a proof of these celebrated conjectures (as well as of the strong form of the Tate conjecture)…
In this short note we provide a relatively simple proof of the Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal conjecture for families of finite (hyper-)graphs without the $k$-order property. It was originally proved by M. Malliaris and S. Shelah in "Regularity lemmas…
We prove the Strengthened Hanna Neumann Conjecture, in its common graph theoretic formulation. Our original approach to this conjecture used cohomology of sheaves on graphs, although here we give a short combinatorial proof that we found in…
We construct a family of countexamples to a conjecture of Galvin [5], which stated that for any $n$-vertex, $d$-regular graph $G$ and any graph $H$ (possibly with loops), \[\hom(G,H) \leq \max\left\lbrace\hom(K_{d,d}, H)^{\frac{n}{2d}},…
The classical matrix tree theorem relates the number of spanning trees of a connected graph with the product of the nonzero eigenvalues of its Laplacian matrix. The class of regular matroids generalizes that of graphical matroids, and a…
There are many intriguing questions in extremal graph theory that are well-understood in the undirected setting and yet remain elusive for digraphs. A natural instance of such a problem was recently studied by Hons, Klimo\v{s}ov\'{a},…
Drawing on some recent results that provide the formalism necessary to definite stationarity for infinite random graphs, this paper initiates the study of statistical and learning questions pertaining to these objects. Specifically, a…
In 1972, Kainen proved a general lower bound on the crossing number of a graph in a closed surface and conjectured that this bound is tight when the graph is either a complete graph or a complete bipartite graph, and the surface is of genus…
We ask the question, which oriented trees $T$ must be contained as subgraphs in every finite directed graph of sufficiently large minimum out-degree. We formulate the following simple condition: all vertices in $T$ of in-degree at least $2$…
The 3-decomposition conjecture is wide open. It asserts that every finite connected cubic graph can be decomposed into a spanning tree, a disjoint union of cycles, and a matching. We show that every such decomposition is derived from a…
We call a tree $T$ is \emph{even} if every pair of its leaves is joined by a path of even length. Jackson and Yoshimoto~[J. Graph Theory, 2024] conjectured that every $r$-regular nonbipartite connected graph $G$ has a spanning even tree.…
Let $G_{n,\gamma}$ be the set of all connected graphs on $n$ vertices with domination number $\gamma$. A graph is called a minimizer graph if it attains the minimum spectral radius among $G_{n,\gamma}$. Very recently, Liu, Li and Xie…
We investigate properties of spatial graphs on the standard torus. It is known that nontrivial embeddings of planar graphs in the torus contain a nontrivial knot or a nonsplit link due to [1],[2]. Building on this and using the chirality of…
A proper total weighting of a graph $G$ is a mapping $\phi$ which assigns to each vertex and each edge of $G$ a real number as its weight so that for any edge $uv$ of $G$, $\sum_{e \in E(v)}\phi(e)+\phi(v) \ne \sum_{e \in…
We prove that if $T_1,\dots, T_n$ is a sequence of bounded degree trees so that $T_i$ has $i$ vertices, then $K_n$ has a decomposition into $T_1,\dots, T_n$. This shows that the tree packing conjecture of Gy\'arf\'as and Lehel from 1976…
We show that for every infinite collection $\mathcal{R}$ of disjoint equivalent rays in a graph $G$ there is a subdivision of the hexagonal half-grid in $G$ such that all its vertical rays belong to $\mathcal{R}$. This result strengthens…
