Finite palette endpoints and degree-square Turán problems

Jiangdong Ai, Bin Chen, Ming Chen +2

We study finite palette extremal problems motivated by uniform Turán densities of -uniform hypergraphs. Given a self-converse tournament with at least two vertices, we deter…

Quasi-kernels in Hereditary Classes and Applications to Break

Jiangdong Ai, Tianyu Huang, Xiangzhou Liu +2

Recently, Nguyen, Seymour and Scott verified the small quasi-kernel conjecture for split digraphs, and initiated the study of quasi-kernels in break digraphs. Following their resea…

A weighted cycle-localization inequality

Jiangdong Ai, Bin Chen, Ming Chen +1

In 1959, Erdős and Gallai showed that every -connected graph contains a cycle of length at least . This result was subsequently extended to weighte…

Feedback vertex sets of digraphs with bounded maximum degree

Jiangdong Ai, Gregory Gutin, Xiangzhou Liu +2

A digraph is an oriented graph if does not have a pair of opposite arcs. The degree of a vertex of is the sum of the in-degree and out-degree of Let b…

Odd Induced Subgraphs in Graphs of Maximum Degree Four

Jiangdong Ai, Qiwen Guo, Gregory Gutin +2

A graph is called odd if all of its vertex degrees are odd. A long-standing conjecture asked whether there exists a positive constant such that every -vertex graph without i…

Large induced subgraphs with prescribed degree parity

Jiangdong Ai, Qiwen Guo, Gregory Gutin +2

A long-standing conjecture of Caro (Discrete Math, 1994), confirmed by Ferber and Krivelevich (Adv Math, 2022), states that every -vertex graph without isolated vertices con…

Oriented discrepancy of Hamilton cycles in oriented graphs satisfying Ore-type condition

Jiangdong Ai, Qiwen Guo, Gregory Gutin +4

Erd{\H o}s (1963) initiated extensive graph discrepancy research on 2-edge-colored graphs. Gishboliner, Krivelevich, and Michaeli (2023) launched similar research on oriented graph…
