SUMMARY:Debsoumya Chakraborti\, Rainbow matchings in edge-colored simple graphs
DESCRIPTION: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 loops) with $2q$ colors where each color appears at least $q$ times\, there is always a rainbow matching of size $q$. We prove that $2q + o(q)$ colors are enough if the graph is simple\, confirming the conjecture asymptotically for simple graphs. We also make progress in the lower bound on the required number of colors for simple graphs\, which disproves a conjecture of Aharoni and Berger. We use a randomized algorithm to obtain a large rainbow matching\, and the analysis of the algorithm is based on differential equations method. We will also briefly comment on the limitations of using our probabilistic approach for the problem. This talk will be based on a joint work with Po-Shen Loh.

SUMMARY:Joonkyung Lee (이준경)\, On common graphs
DESCRIPTION:A graph $H$ is common if the number of monochromatic copies of $H$ in a 2-edge-colouring of the complete graph $K_n$ 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 by Sidorenko\, respectively\, in the late 1980s. \nDespite its importance\, the full classification of common graphs is still a wide open problem and has not seen much progress since the early 1990s. In this lecture\, I will present some old and new techniques to prove whether a graph is common or not.

SUMMARY:Hong Liu (刘鸿)\, A solution to Erdős and Hajnal's odd cycle problem
DESCRIPTION: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 the appearance of cycle lengths in very sparse sequences (such as powers of 2). The methods developed in this work allows also us to embed equally divided clique subdivisions\, which was conjectured by Thomassen.

SUMMARY:Jinha Kim (김진하)\, On a conjecture by Kalai and Meshulam - the Betti number of the independence complex of ternary graphs
DESCRIPTION: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 of I(G) is either 0 or 1. In this talk\, I will introduce a result by Zhang and Wu\, which proves the Kalai-Meshulam conjecture.
