Ramsey's theorem states that, for a fixed graph , every 2-edge-colouring of contains a monochromatic copy of whenever is large enough. Perhaps one of the most natural questions after Ramsey's theorem is then how many copies of monochromatic can be guaranteed to exist. To formalise this question, let the Ramsey multiplicity …
There has been much research on finding a large rainbow matching in a properly edge-colored graph, where a proper edge coloring is a coloring of the edge set such that no same-colored edges are incident. Barát, Gyárfás, and Sárközy conjectured that in every proper edge coloring of a multigraph (with parallel edges allowed, but not …
A graph is common if the number of monochromatic copies of in a 2-edge-colouring of the complete graph is minimised by the random colouring. Burr and Rosta, extending a famous conjecture by Erdős, conjectured that every graph is common. The conjectures by Erdős and by Burr and Rosta were disproved by Thomason and …
I will go over the history on the study of the set of cycle lengths of graphs with large average degree or chromatic number, and discuss recent work with Richard Montgomery on this topic. In particular, we will see the divergence of harmonic sum of odd cycle lengths in graphs with large chromatic number and …
Given a graph G=(V,E), the independence complex of G is the abstract simplicial complex I(G) on V whose faces are the independent sets of G. A graph is ternary if it does not contain an induced cycle of length divisible by three. Kalai and Meshulam conjectured that if G is ternary then the sum of the Betti numbers …
