Problems in extremal graph theory [PDF]

open access: green, 2010
We consider a variety of problems in extremal graph and set theory. The {\em chromatic number} of $G$, $\chi(G)$, is the smallest integer $k$ such that $G$ is $k$-colorable.

Two Extremal Problems in Graph Theory

open access: closedThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 1994
We consider the following two problems. (1) Let $t$ and $n$ be positive integers with $n\geq t\geq 2$. Determine the maximum number of edges of a graph of order $n$ that contains neither $K_t$ nor $K_{t,t}$ as a subgraph. (2) Let $r$, $t$ and $n$ be positive integers with $n\geq rt$ and $t\geq 2$. Determine the maximum number of edges of a graph of

On a valence problem in extremal graph theory

open access: closedDiscrete Mathematics, 1973
Vorliegende Arbeit bezieht sich auf nicht-orientierte, Schlingen und mehrfache Kanten nicht enhaltende Graphen. Bezeichne \(L\) einen solchen vom vollständigen \(p\)-Graphen \(K_p\) verschiedenen \(p\)-chromatischen Graphen, welcher eine Kante \(e\) so enthält, daß \(L-e\) ein \((p-1)\)-chromatischer Graph ist. Als Hauptergebnis der vorliegenden Arbeit

On a problem in extremal graph theory

open access: closedJournal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1977
From the authors introduction. Let \(G(n,m)\) denote a graph \((V,E)\) with \(n\) vertices and \(m\) edges and \(K_1\) a complete graph with \(i\) vertices. \textit{P.Turán} proved that every \(G(n,T(n,k))\) contains a \(K_k\), where \[ T(n,k) = \frac{k-2}{2(k-1)}(n^2-r^2)+\binom r2+1, \] \(r\equiv n(\mod k-1)\) and \(0\leq r\leq k-2\).

Some problems in extremal graph theory avoiding the use of the regularity lemma

open access: green, 2009
In this thesis we present two results in Extremal Graph Theory. The first result is a new proof of a conjecture of Bollobas on embedding trees of bounded degree. The second result is a new proof of the Posa conjecture.Let G=(W,E) be a graph on n vertices having minimum degree at least n/2 + c log(n), where c is a constant.

EXTREMAL PROBLEMS IN GRAPH THEORY: A COMBINATORIAL OPTIMIZATION PERSPECTIVE

open access: hybridAdvances and Applications in Discrete Mathematics
The extremal theory of graphs considers the study of how large or small a graph invariant may be, according to certain constraints. The field crosses the overlying with combinatorial optimization, in which optimal configurations are studied under discrete conditions.

A note on the Ramsey numbers for theta graphs versus the wheel of order 5

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2018
The study of exact values and bounds on the Ramsey numbers of graphs forms an important family of problems in the extremal graph theory. For a set of graphs S and a graph F , the Ramsey number R (S , F) is the smallest positive integer r such that for ...

Hypergraphs with infinitely many extremal constructions

open access: yesDiscrete Analysis, 2023
Hypergraphs with infinitely many extremal constructions, Discrete Analysis 2023:18, 34 pp. A fundamental result in extremal graph theory, Turán's theorem, states that the maximal number of edges of a graph with $n$ vertices that does not contain a ...
