For a graph $H$ and a family of graphs $\mathcal F$, let $\text{ex}(n,H,\mathcal F)$ denote the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $\mathcal F$-free graph on $n$ vertices. For every integer $i\ge 3$, let $C_i$ denote the cycle of length $i$. For $r\ge 3$, set $\mathscr {C}_r=\{C_3,C_4,\ldots,C_r\},$ and set $\mathscr {C}_2=\varnothing$. In this paper, we prove that, for all integers $l>k\ge 2$, $$ \text{ex}(n,C_{2k+1},\mathscr {C}_{2k}\cup\{C_{2l+1}\}) =O_{k,l} \left(n^{2-\frac{1}{k(k+1)(l-k)}}\ \ \right). $$ Together with the known upper bounds for the number of triangles in $C_{2l+1}$-free graphs, this confirms a conjecture of Gerbner, Gy\H{o}ri, Methuku, and Vizer.
For graphs $G$ and $H$, let $\mathbf N(G,H)$ denote the number of unlabeled, not necessarily induced copies of $H$ in $G$, and let $\mathbf N_{\mathcal P}(n,H)$ be the maximum of $\mathbf N(G,H)$ over all $n$-vertex planar graphs $G$. We prove that, for every fixed integer $m\geq 3$, $$\mathbf N_{\mathcal P}(n,C_{2m+1}...
Let $\mathcal{C}_{[4,r]}$ be the family of cycles $\{C_4, \dots, C_r\}$. A graph $G$ is said to be $\mathcal{C}_{[4,r]}$-saturated if $G$ does not contain a copy of cycle $C_i$ for $4\le i\le r$, but the addition of any edge $e\notin E(G)$ creates at least one copy of $C_i$ for $4\le i\le r.$ The saturation number $sat...
Given a graph $G$ with degree sequence $d_{1},\ldots,d_{n}$ and a positive real number $p$, let $e_{p}(G)=\sum_{i=1}^{n} d_{i}^{p}$. For a fixed family of graphs $\mathcal F$, let $ex_{p}(n, \mathcal F)$ denote the maximum value of $e_{p}(G)$ over all $\mathcal F$-free graphs $G$ on $n$ vertices. In 2000, Caro and Yust...
For a graph $H$ with $3\mid e(H)$, the zero-sum Ramsey number $R(H,\Z_3)$ is the least integer $N$ such that every labeling of the edges of $K_N$ by elements of $\Z_3$ contains a copy of $H$ whose edge labels sum to zero. We determine the last previously unresolved infinite family in the complete-graph case modulo $3$....
Let $G$ be a simple graph on $n$ vertices and $e(G)$ edges. Let $\mu_1\geq \cdots \geq \mu_{n-1}\geq \mu_n=0$ be the Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$. For $k=1, \ldots, n$, let $S_k(G)=\sum_{i=1}^{k}\mu_i$. Brouwers conjecture asserts that for any $k\in\{1,\ldots, n\}$, $S_k(G)\leq e(G)+\binom{k+1}{2}$. In [Bounding the su...
Given graphs $H$ and $F$, the generalized Tur\'{a}n number ${\rm ex}(n,H,F)$ is the maximum number of copies of $H$ in an $n$-vertex $F$-free graph. Alon and Shikhelman (J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 2016) initiated the systematic study of generalized Tur\'{a}n problems. Recently, Gao, Wu and Xue (J. Graph Theory, 2026) as...
