An $\mathcal{F}$-saturated $r$-graph is a maximal $r$-graph not containing any member of $\mathcal{F}$ as a subgraph. Let $\mathcal{K}_{\ell + 1}^{r}$ be the collection of all $r$-graphs $F$ with at most $\binom{\ell+1}{2}$ edges such that…

Let $f_{F,G}(n)$ be the largest size of an induced $F$-free subgraph that every $n$-vertex $G$-free graph is guaranteed to contain. We prove that for any triangle-free graph $F$, \[ f_{F,K_3}(n) = f_{K_2,K_3}(n)^{1 + o(1)} = n^{\frac{1}{2}…

Let $H=(V,E)$ be a hypergraph, where $V$ is a set of vertices and $E$ is a set of non-empty subsets of $V$ called edges. If all edges of $H$ have the same cardinality $r$, then $H$ is a $r$-uniform hypergraph; if $E$ consists of all…

A decomposition of a multigraph $G$ is a partition of its edges into subgraphs $G(1), \ldots , G(k)$. It is called an $r$-factorization if every $G(i)$ is $r$-regular and spanning. If $G$ is a subgraph of $H$, a decomposition of $G$ is said…

For a graph $G$ and a set of graphs $\mathcal{H}$, we say that $G$ is {\em $\mathcal{H}$-free} if no induced subgraph of $G$ is isomorphic to a member of $\mathcal{H}$. Given an integer $P>0$, a graph $G$, and a set of graphs $\mathcal{F}$,…

We prove a conjecture due to Holroyd and Johnson that an analogue of the Erdos-Ko-Rado theorem holds for k-separated sets. In particular this determines the independence number of the vertex-critical subgraph of the Kneser graph identified…

An almost bipartite graph is a graph with a unique odd cycle. Levit and Mandrescu showed that in every non-K\"onig--Egerv\'ary almost bipartite graph the equalities $\textnormal{ker}(G)=\textnormal{core}(G)$, $\textnormal{corona}(G)\cup…

For fixed integers $r\ge 3,e\ge 3,v\ge r+1$, an $r$-uniform hypergraph is called $\mathscr{G}_r(v,e)$-free if the union of any $e$ distinct edges contains at least $v+1$ vertices. Brown, Erd\H{o}s and S\'{o}s showed that the maximum number…

Ryser's Conjecture states that any $r$-partite $r$-uniform hypergraph has a vertex cover of size at most $r - 1$ times the size of the largest matching. For $r = 2$, the conjecture is simply K\"onig's Theorem and every bipartite graph is a…

Given a graph $G=(V(G), E(G))$, the size of a minimum dominating set, minimum paired dominating set, and a minimum total dominating set of a graph $G$ are denoted by $\gamma(G)$, $\gamma_{\rm pr}(G)$, and $\gamma_{t}(G)$, respectively. For…

We prove that for all $r\geq2$ and c>0, every graph of order n with at least cn^{r} cliques of order r contains a complete r-partite graph with each part of size $\lfloor c^{r}\log n \rfloor.$ This result implies a concise form of the…

For $r \ge 2$ and a graph $G$, let $\alpha_{{r}}(G)$ be the maximum number of vertices in a $K_r$-free subgraph of $G$. We investigate the value $\alpha_{r}(G)$ when $G$ is the random graph $G \sim G_{n, 1/2}$ and discover the following…

A vertex colouring of a graph is \emph{nonrepetitive} if there is no path whose first half receives the same sequence of colours as the second half. A graph is nonrepetitively $k$-choosable if given lists of at least $k$ colours at each…

Given a graph $G$, let $\mu(G)$ denote the size of the smallest maximal independent set in $G$. A family of subsets is called a star if some element is in every set of the family. A split vertex has degree at least 3. Holroyd and Talbot…

Let $r>2$ and $\sigma\in(0,r-1)$ be integers. We require $t<2s$, where $t=2^{\sigma+1}-1$ and $s=2^{r-\sigma-1}$. Generalizing a known $\{K_4,T_{6,3}\}$-ultrahomogenous graph $G_3^1$, we find that a finite, connected, undirected,…

A perfect $K_t$-matching in a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph consisting of vertex disjoint copies of $K_t$. A classic theorem of Hajnal and Szemer\'edi states that if $G$ is a graph of order $n$ with minimum degree $\delta(G) \ge…

Let $f(n,r,k)$ be the minimal number such that every hypergraph larger than $f(n,r,k)$ contained in $\binom{[n]}{r}$ contains a matching of size $k$, and let $g(n,r,k)$ be the minimal number such that every hypergraph larger than $g(n,r,k)$…

A path in an edge-colored graph $G$, where adjacent edges may be colored the same, is called a rainbow path if no two edges of $G$ are colored the same. For a $\kappa$-connected graph $G$ and an integer $k$ with $1\leq k\leq \kappa$, the…

The classical Erd\H{o}s-P\'{o}sa theorem states that for each positive integer k there is an f(k) such that, in each graph G which does not have k+1 disjoint cycles, there is a blocker of size at most f(k); that is, a set B of at most f(k)…

A set $S\subseteq V$ in an isolate-free graph $G$ is a total restrained dominating set, abbreviated TRD-set, if every vertex in $V$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$, and every vertex in $V\setminus S$ is adjacent to a vertex in $V\setminus…
