A graph $G$ is called \emph{chromatic-choosable} if its choice number is equal to its chromatic number, namely $Ch(G)=\chi(G)$. Ohba has conjectured that every graph $G$ satisfying $|V(G)|\leq 2\chi(G)+1$ is chromatic-choosable. Since each…

A solution to a problem of Erd\H{o}s, Rubin and Taylor is obtained by showing that if a graph $G$ is $(a:b)$-choosable, and $c/d > a/b$, then $G$ is not necessarily $(c:d)$-choosable. The simplest case of another problem, stated by the same…

In this paper we study a multi-partite version of the Erd\H{o}s--Stone theorem. Given integers $r<k$ and $t\ge 1$, let $\text{ex}_k(n, K_{r+1}(t))$ be the maximum number of edges of $K_{r+1}(t)$-free $k$-partite graphs with $n$ vertices in…

This paper studies the on-line choice number on complete multipartite graphs with independence number $m$. We give a unified strategy for every prescribed $m$. Our main result leads to several interesting consequences comparable to known…

A graph is a $k$-threshold graph with thresholds $\theta_1, \theta_2, \dots, \theta_k$ if we can assign a real number $r_v$ to each vertex $v$ such that for any two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$, $uv$ is an edge if and only if the number of…

We show that there is a constant $k$ such that when $r \geq 2$ and $m \geq r^k$, the complete $r$-partite graph $K_{m*r}$ has a non-colorable list assignment $L$ such that $|L(v)| \geq \frac{7}{750}r\ln m$ for all $v$ and such that $|L(u)…

Let $\text{ch}(G)$ denote the choice number of a graph $G$ (also called "list chromatic number" or "choosability" of $G$). Noel, Reed, and Wu proved the conjecture of Ohba that $\text{ch}(G)=\chi(G)$ when $|V(G)|\le 2\chi(G)+1$. We extend…

Let $k\ge 2$ and $n_1\ge n_2\ge n_3\ge n_4$ be integers such that $n_4$ is sufficiently larger than $k$. We determine the maximum number of edges of a 4-partite graph with parts of sizes $n_1,\dots, n_4$ that does not contain $k$…

A solution to a problem of Erd\H{o}s, Rubin and Taylor is obtained by showing that if a graph $G$ is $(a:b)$-choosable, and $c/d > a/b$, then $G$ is not necessarily $(c:d)$-choosable. Applying probabilistic methods, an upper bound for the…

It is proved that every connected graph $G$ on $n$ vertices with $\chi(G) \geq 4$ has at most $k(k-1)^{n-3}(k-2)(k-3)$ $k$-colourings for every $k \geq 4$. Equality holds for some (and then for every) $k$ if and only if the graph is formed…

Let $n(k_1, k_2)$ be the least integer $n$ such that there exists a graph on $n$ vertices in which every vertex is contained in both a clique of size $k_1$ and an independent set of size $k_2$. Recently, Feige and Pauzner showed that ${n(k,…

Let $\textbf{k} := (k_1,\ldots,k_s)$ be a sequence of natural numbers. For a graph $G$, let $F(G;\textbf{k})$ denote the number of colourings of the edges of $G$ with colours $1,\dots,s$ such that, for every $c \in \{1,\dots,s\}$, the edges…

Given integers $r \geq 2$, $k \geq 3$ and $2 \leq s \leq \binom{k}{2}$, and a graph $G$, we consider $r$-edge-colorings of $G$ with no copy of a complete graph $K_k$ on $k$ vertices where $s$ or more colors appear, which are called…

A graph is called $k$-critical if its chromatic number is $k$ but any proper subgraph has chromatic number less than $k$. An old and important problem in graph theory asks to determine the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex…

For a graph $H$ and integer $k \geq 1$, two functions $f, g$ from $V(H)$ into $\{1, \dots, k\}$ are adjacent if for all edges $uv$ of $H$, $f(u) \neq g(v)$. The graph of all such functions is the exponential graph $K_k^H$. El-Zahar and…

For a graph $G$, let $c_1(G)$ be the largest distortion necessary to embed any shortest-path metric on $G$ into $\ell_1$, and for any natural number $n,m\in\mathbb{N}$, denote $K_{n,m}$ as the complete bipartite graph. In this note, we…

Let $c$ denote the largest constant such that every $C_{6}$-free graph $G$ contains a bipartite and $C_4$-free subgraph having $c$ fraction of edges of $G$. Gy\H{o}ri et al. showed that $\frac{3}{8} \le c \le \frac{2}{5}$. We prove that…

Let $F$ be a graph, $k \geq 2$ be an integer, and write $\mathrm{ex}_{ \chi \leq k } (n , F)$ for the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph that is $k$-partite and has no subgraph isomorphic to $F$. The function $\mathrm{ex}_{ \chi…

The $4$-girth-thickness $\theta(4,G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of planar subgraphs of girth at least four whose union is $G$. In this paper, we obtain that the 4-girth-thickness of complete tripartite graph $K_{n,n,n}$ is…

Let $\mathbf{k} := (k_1,\dots,k_s)$ be a sequence of natural numbers. For a graph $G$, let $F(G;\mathbf{k})$ denote the number of colourings of the edges of $G$ with colours $1,\dots,s$ such that, for every $c \in \{1,\dots,s\}$, the edges…
