A highly influential result of Nikiforov states that if an $n$-vertex graph $G$ contains at least $\gamma n^h$ copies of a fixed $h$-vertex graph $H$, then $G$ contains a blowup of $H$ of order $\Omega_{\gamma,H}(\log n)$. While the…

We show that if a graph G of order n contains many copies of a given subgraph H, then it contains a blow-up of H of order log n.

A well-known theorem of Nikiforov asserts that any graph with a positive $K_{r}$-density contains a logarithmic blowup of $K_r$. In this paper, we explore variants of Nikiforov's result in the following form. Given $r,t\in\mathbb{N}$, when…

Half a century ago, Bollob\'{a}s and Erd\H{o}s [Bull. London Math. Soc. 5 (1973)] proved that every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $e(G)\ge (1- \frac{1}{k} + \varepsilon )\frac{n^2}{2}$ edges contains a blowup $K_{k+1}[t]$ with…

The blow-up of a graph is obtained by replacing every vertex with a finite collection of copies so that the copies of two vertices are adjacent if and only if the originals are. If every vertex is replaced with the same number of copies,…

We show that every graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $\delta(G) \geq (1/2+\varepsilon)n$ is spanned by a complete blow-up of a cycle with clusters of nearly uniform size $\Omega(\log n)$. The proof is based on a recently introduced approach…

Recently, Souza introduced blowup Ramsey numbers as a generalization of bipartite Ramsey numbers. For graphs $G$ and $H$, say $G\overset{r}{\longrightarrow} H$ if every $r$-edge-coloring of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. Let…

A cornerstone of extremal graph theory due to Erd\H{o}s and Stone states that the edge density which guarantees a fixed graph $F$ as subgraph also asymptotically guarantees a blow-up of $F$ as subgraph. It is natural to ask whether this…

Let $G$ be an $r$-uniform hypergraph of order $t$ and $\rho(G)$ is the spectral radius of $\mathcal{A}(G)$, where $\mathcal{A}(G)$ is the adjacency tensor of $G$. A blow-up of $G$ respected to a positive integer vector $(n_{1},…

An \emph{$H$-packing} in a graph $G$ is a collection of pairwise vertex-disjoint copies of $H$ in $G$. We prove that for every $c > 0$ and every bipartite graph $H$, any $\lfloor cn \rfloor$-regular graph $G$ admits an $H$-packing that…

A celebrated conjecture of Sidorenko and Erd\H{o}s-Simonovits states that, for all bipartite graphs $H$, quasirandom graphs contain asymptotically the minimum number of copies of $H$ taken over all graphs with the same order and edge…

We study a generalisation of the bipartite Ramsey numbers to blowups of graphs. For a graph $G$, denote the $t$-blowup of $G$ by $G[t]$. We say that $G$ is $r$-Ramsey for $H$, and write $G \stackrel{r}{\rightarrow} H$, if every…

Let $H$ be a graph on $h$ vertices. The number of induced copies of $H$ in a graph $G$ is denoted by $i_H(G)$. Let $i_H(n)$ denote the maximum of $i_H(G)$ taken over all graphs $G$ with $n$ vertices. Let $f(n,h) = \Pi_{i}^h a_i$ where…

For a planar graph $H$, let $\operatorname{\mathbf{N}}_{\mathcal P}(n,H)$ denote the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $n$-vertex planar graph. In this paper, we prove that $\operatorname{\mathbf{N}}_{\mathcal P}(n,P_7)\sim{4\over…

We prove blow-up structure theorems for graphs excluding a tree or an apex-tree as a minor. First, we show that for every $t$-vertex tree $T$ with $t\geq 3$ and radius $h$, and every graph $G$ excluding $T$ as a minor, there exists a graph…

Let $H$ be a graph on $n$ vertices and let the blow-up graph $G[H]$ be defined as follows. We replace each vertex $v_i$ of $H$ by a cluster $A_i$ and connect some pairs of vertices of $A_i$ and $A_j$ if $(v_i,v_j)$ was an edge of the graph…

Given graphs H_1,...,H_k, we study the minimum order of a graph G such that for each i, the induced copies of H_i in G cover V(G). We prove a general upper bound of twice the sum of the numbers m_i, where m_i is one less than the order of…

The \emph{blow-up} of a graph $H$ is the graph obtained from replacing each edge in $H$ by a clique of the same size where the new vertices of the cliques are all different. Erd\H{o}s et al. and Chen et al. determined the extremal number of…

Let $c\in (0, 1]$ be a real number and let $n$ be a sufficiently large integer. We prove that every $n$-vertex $c n$-regular graph $G$ contains a collection of $\lfloor 1/c \rfloor$ paths whose union covers all but at most $o(n)$ vertices…

A graph $G$ is said to have \textit{bandwidth} at most $b$, if there exists a labeling of the vertices by $1,2,..., n$, so that $|i - j| \leq b$ whenever $\{i,j\}$ is an edge of $G$. Recently, B\"{o}ttcher, Schacht, and Taraz verified a…
