We prove that in every $2$-edge-colouring of $K_n$ there is a collection of $n^2/12 + o(n^2)$ edge-disjoint monochromatic triangles, thus confirming a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. We also prove a corresponding stability result, showing that…

An edge-colored graph $G$, where adjacent edges may have the same color, is {\it rainbow connected} if every two vertices of $G$ are connected by a path whose edge has distinct colors. A graph $G$ is {\it $k$-rainbow connected} if one can…

A seminal result by Koml\'os, Sark\"ozy, and Szemer\'edi states that if a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices has minimum degree at least $kn/(k + 1)$, for some $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $n$ sufficiently large, then it contains the $k$-th power of a…

We exhibit a 5-uniform hypergraph that has no polychromatic 3-coloring, but all its restricted subhypergraphs with edges of size at least 3 are 2-colorable. This disproves a bold conjecture of Keszegh and the author, and can be considered…

We develop sequential algorithms for constructing edge-colorings of graphs and multigraphs efficiently and using few colors. Our primary focus is edge-coloring arbitrary simple graphs using $d+1$ colors, where $d$ is the largest vertex…

A proper 2-tone $k$-coloring of a graph is a labeling of the vertices with elements from $\binom{[k]}{2}$ such that adjacent vertices receive disjoint labels and vertices distance 2 apart receive distinct labels. The 2-tone chromatic number…

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…

Given an integer $r\gs 2$, an important theorem first proved by B. Andr\'asfai, P. Erd\H{o}s, and V. T. S\'os states that any $K_{r+1}$--free graph on $n$ vertices whose minimum degree is greater than $(3r-4)n/(3r-1)$ is $r$--colourable,…

In 1985, Erd\H{o}s and Ne\'{s}etril conjectured that the strong edge-coloring number of a graph is bounded above by ${5/4}\Delta^2$ when $\Delta$ is even and ${1/4}(5\Delta^2-2\Delta+1)$ when $\Delta$ is odd. They gave a simple construction…

A proper edge coloring of a graph is strong if it creates no bichromatic path of length three. It is well known that for a strong edge coloring of a $k$-regular graph at least $2k-1$ colors are needed. We show that a $k$-regular graph…

In this paper, we consider the problem of learning an unknown graph via queries on groups of nodes, with the result indicating whether or not at least one edge is present among those nodes. While learning arbitrary graphs with $n$ nodes and…

The colouring number col(G) of a graph G is the smallest integer k for which there is an ordering of the vertices of G such that when removing the vertices of G in the specified order no vertex of degree more than k-1 in the remaining graph…

We consider the problem of finding an edge in a hidden undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ with $n$ vertices, in a model where we only allowed queries that ask whether or not a subset of vertices contains an edge. We study the non-adaptive model…

In this paper, we first study a new extremal problem recently posed by Conlon and Tyomkyn~(arXiv: 2002.00921). Given a graph $H$ and an integer $k\geqslant 2$, let $f_{k}(n,H)$ be the smallest number of colors $c$ such that there exists a…

A coloring of a digraph is a partition of its vertex set such that each class induces a digraph with no directed cycles. A digraph is $k$-chromatic if $k$ is the minimum number of classes in such partition, and a digraph is oriented if…

The heterochromatic number hc(H) of a non-empty hypergraph H is the smallest integer k such that for every colouring of the vertices of H with exactly k colours, there is a hyperedge of H all of whose vertices have different colours. We…

We study the problem of online graph coloring for $k$-colorable graphs. The best previously known deterministic algorithm uses $\widetilde{O}(n^{1-\frac{1}{k!}})$ colors for general $k$ and $\widetilde{O}(n^{5/6})$ colors for $k = 4$, both…

The star chromatic number on a graph is the minimum number of colors in a proper vertex coloring forbidding any $P_4$ with two colors (bicolored). This problem was introduced by Gr\"unbaum (1973) together with the acyclic coloring of…

In 1961 Erd\H{o}s and Hajnal introduced the quantity $m(n)$ as the minimum number of edges in an $n$-uniform hypergraph with chromatic number at least 3. The best known lower and upper bounds for $ m(n) $ are $ c_1 \sqrt{\frac{n}{\ln n}}…

If $k\geq 0$, then a $k$-edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is an assignment of colors to edges of $G$ from the set of $k$ colors, so that adjacent edges receive different colors. A $k$-edge-colorable subgraph of $G$ is maximum if it is the…
