In this paper, we address the following problem due to Frankl and F\"uredi (1984). What is the maximum number of hyperedges in an $r$-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices, such that every set of $r+1$ vertices contains $0$ or exactly $2$…

By the theorem of Mantel $[5]$ it is known that a graph with $n$ vertices and $\lfloor \frac{n^{2}}{4} \rfloor+1$ edges must contain a triangle. A theorem of Erd\H{o}s gives a strengthening: there are not only one, but at least…

A multipartite tournament is an orientation of a complete $k$-partite graph for some positive integer $k\geq 3$. We say that a multipartite tournament $D$ is tight if every partite set forms a clique in the $(1,2)$-step competition graph,…

It is shown that every complete n-vertex simple topological graph has at least Omega(n^{1/3}) pairwise disjoint edges, and these edges can be found in polynomial time. This proves a conjecture of Pach and T\'oth.

Let $U_5$ be the tournament with vertices $v_1$, ..., $v_5$ such that $v_2 \rightarrow v_1$, and $v_i \rightarrow v_j$ if $j-i \equiv 1$, $2 \pmod{5}$ and ${i,j} \neq {1,2}$. In this paper we describe the tournaments which do not have $U_5$…

A vertex $x$ in a tournament $T$ is called a king if for every vertex $y$ of $T$ there is a directed path from $x$ to $y$ of length at most 2. It is not hard to show that every vertex of maximum out-degree in a tournament is a king.…

Given non-negative integers m, n, h and k with $ m\geq h>1 $ and $ n\geq k>1, $an [h-k]-bipartite hypertournament on $ m+n$ vertices is a triple $(U,V,A) $, where U and V are two sets of vertices with $| U| =m$ and $ | V| =n,$ and $A$ is a…

In this note we show that every tournament on $n$ vertices contains the $k$-th power of a directed path of length $n/2^{6k+7}$, which improves upon the recent bound of Scott and Kor\'{a}ndi of $n/2^{2^{3k}}$. By doing so, we get an inverse…

Sullivan stated the conjectures: (1) every oriented graph $D$ has a vertex $x$ such that $d^{++}(x)\geq d^{-}(x)$; (2) every oriented graph $D$ has a vertex $x$ such that $d^{++}(x)+d^{+}(x)\geq 2d^{-}(x)$. In this paper, we prove that…

In 2009, Bang-Jensen asked whether there exists a function $g(k)$ such that every strongly $k$-connected $n$-vertex tournament contains a strongly $k$-connected spanning subgraph with at most $kn + g(k)$ arcs. In this paper, we answer the…

We prove that, with high probability, any $2$-edge-colouring of a random tournament on $n$ vertices contains a monochromatic path of length $\Omega(n / \sqrt{\log n})$. This resolves a conjecture of Ben-Eliezer, Krivelevich and Sudakov and…

We show that if $D$ is a tournament of arbitrary size then $D$ has finite strong components after reversing a locally finite sequence of cycles. In turn, we prove that any tournament can be covered by two acyclic sets after reversing a…

A tournament on 8 or more vertices may be intrinsically linked as a directed graph. We begin the classification of intrinsically linked tournaments by examining their score sequences. While many distinct tournaments may have the same score…

We present a general method for counting and packing Hamilton cycles in dense graphs and oriented graphs, based on permanent estimates. We utilize this approach to prove several extremal results. In particular, we show that every nearly…

We prove a vertex domination conjecture of Erd\H os, Faudree, Gould, Gy\'arf\'as, Rousseau, and Schelp, that for every n-vertex complete graph with edges coloured using three colours there exists a set of at most three vertices which have…

An arc-coloured digraph $D$ is said to be \emph{rainbow connected} if for every two vertices $u$ and $v$ there is an $uv$-path all whose arcs have different colours. The minimun number of colours required to make the digraph rainbow…

We show that for any integer $t\geq 2$, every properly edge-coloured graph on $n$ vertices with more than $n^{1+o(1)}$ edges contains a rainbow subdivision of $K_t$. Note that this bound on the number of edges is sharp up to the $o(1)$…

A graph whose vertices are points in the plane and whose edges are noncrossing straight-line segments of unit length is called a \emph{matchstick graph}. We prove two somewhat counterintuitive results concerning the maximum number of edges…

For two integers $n\geq 3$ and $2\leq p\leq n$, we denote $D(n,p)$ the digraph obtained from a directed $n$-cycle by changing the orientations of $p-1$ consecutive arcs. In this paper, we show that a family of $k$-regular $(k\geq 3)$…

It is well-known that every tournament contains a Hamilton path, and every strongly connected tournament contains a Hamilton cycle. This paper establishes transversal generalizations of these classical results. For a collection…
