We develop novel methods for constructing nearly Hamilton cycles in sublinear expanders with good regularity properties, as well as new techniques for finding such expanders in general graphs. These methods are of independent interest due…

Lehel conjectured that in every $2$-coloring of the edges of $K_n$, there is a vertex disjoint red and blue cycle which span $V(K_n)$. \L uczak, R\"odl, and Szemer\'edi proved Lehel's conjecture for large $n$, Allen gave a different proof…

Given graphs $H_1,H_2$, a graph $G$ is $(H_1,H_2)$-Ramsey if for every colouring of the edges of $G$ with red and blue, there is a red copy of $H_1$ or a blue copy of $H_2$. In this paper we investigate Ramsey questions in the setting of…

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}},…

A graph $G$ is said to be Ramsey size-linear if $r(G,H) =O_G (e(H))$ for every graph $H$ with no isolated vertices. Erd\H{o}s, Faudree, Rousseau, and Schelp observed that $K_4$ is not Ramsey size-linear, but each of its proper subgraphs is,…

In this paper, we derive the asymptotic distribution of the number of copies of a fixed graph $H$ in a random graph $G_n$ sampled from a sparse graphon model. Specifically, we provide a refined analysis that separates the contributions of…

The Kneser graph $KG_{n,k}$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-element subsets of $[n],$ with two vertices adjacent if and only if the corresponding sets are disjoint. A famous result due to Lov\'asz states that the chromatic number of…

Given a graph $G$ and a real $\varepsilon>0$, an edge-coloring of $G$ is called $\varepsilon$-balanced if each color appears on at least an $\varepsilon$-fraction of the edges in $G$. A classical result of Erd\H{o}s and Szemer\'{e}di…

There are several notions of convergence for sequences of bounded degree graphs. One such notion is left convergence, which is based on counting neighborhood distributions. Another notion is right convergence, based on counting…

Erd\H{o}s asked whether for any $n$-vertex graph $G$, the parameter $p^*(G)=\min \sum_{i\ge 1} (|V(G_i)|-1)$ is at most $\lfloor n^2/4\rfloor$, where the minimum is taken over all edge decompositions of $G$ into edge-disjoint cliques $G_i$.…

Burr and Erd\H{o}s in 1975 conjectured, and Chv\'atal, R\"odl, Szemer\'edi and Trotter later proved, that the Ramsey number of any bounded degree graph is linear in the number of vertices. In this paper, we disprove the natural directed…

We study sparse hypergraphs which satisfy a mild pseudorandomness condition known as $L_p$ regularity. We prove appropriate regularity and counting lemmas, and we extend the relative removal lemma of Tao in this setting. This answers a…

The size Ramsey number $ \hat{r}(G,H) $ of two graphs $ G $ and $ H $ is the smallest integer $ m $ such that there exists a graph $ F $ on $ m $ edges with the property that every red-blue colouring of the edges of $ F $, yields a red copy…

In 2004, Karo\'nski, \L uczak and Thomason proposed $1$-$2$-$3$-conjecture: For every nice graph $G$ there is an edge weighting function $ w:E(G)\rightarrow\{1,2,3\} $ such that the induced vertex coloring is proper. After that, the total…
