We study the Decomposition Conjecture posed by Barat and Thomassen (2006), which states that for every tree $T$ there exists a natural number $k_T$ such that, if $G$ is a $k_T$-edge-connected graph and $|E(T)|$ divides $|E(G)|$, then $G$ admits a decomposition into copies of $T$. In a series of papers, Thomassen verified this conjecture for stars, some bistars, paths of length $3$, and paths whose length is a power of $2$. We verify the Decomposition Conjecture for paths of length $5$.

In 2006, Barat and Thomassen posed the following conjecture: for each tree $T$, there exists a natural number $k_T$ such that, if $G$ is a $k_T$-edge-connected graph and $|E(G)|$ is divisible by $|E(T)|$, then $G$ admits a decomposition into copies o f $T$. This conjecture was verified for stars, some bistars, paths of length $3$, $5$, and $2^r$ for every positive integer $r$. We prove that this conjecture holds for paths of any fixed length.
The age $mathcal{A}(G)$ of a graph $G$ (undirected and without loops) is the collection of finite induced subgraphs of $G$, considered up to isomorphy and ordered by embeddability. It is well-quasi-ordered (wqo) for this order if it contains no infin ite antichain. A graph is emph{path-minimal} if it contains finite induced paths of unbounded length and every induced subgraph $G$ with this property embeds $G$. We construct $2^{aleph_0}$ path-minimal graphs whose ages are pairwise incomparable with set inclusion and which are wqo. Our construction is based on uniformly recurrent sequences and lexicographical sums of labelled graphs
The well-known Disjoint Paths problem is to decide if a graph contains k pairwise disjoint paths, each connecting a different terminal pair from a set of k distinct pairs. We determine, with an exception of two cases, the complexity of the Disjoint P aths problem for $H$-free graphs. If $k$ is fixed, we obtain the $k$-Disjoint Paths problem, which is known to be polynomial-time solvable on the class of all graphs for every $k geq 1$. The latter does no longer hold if we need to connect vertices from terminal sets instead of terminal pairs. We completely classify the complexity of $k$-Disjoint Connected Subgraphs for $H$-free graphs, and give the same almost-complete classification for Disjoint Connected Subgraphs for $H$-free graphs as for Disjoint Paths.
Let $G$ be a graph whose edges are coloured with $k$ colours, and $mathcal H=(H_1,dots , H_k)$ be a $k$-tuple of graphs. A monochromatic $mathcal H$-decomposition of $G$ is a partition of the edge set of $G$ such that each part is either a single edg e or forms a monochromatic copy of $H_i$ in colour $i$, for some $1le ile k$. Let $phi_{k}(n,mathcal H)$ be the smallest number $phi$, such that, for every order-$n$ graph and every $k$-edge-colouring, there is a monochromatic $mathcal H$-decomposition with at most $phi$ elements. Extending the previous results of Liu and Sousa [Monochromatic $K_r$-decompositions of graphs, Journal of Graph Theory}, 76:89--100, 2014], we solve this problem when each graph in $mathcal H$ is a clique and $nge n_0(mathcal H)$ is sufficiently large.
It is proved that if a graph is regular of even degree and contains a Hamilton cycle, or regular of odd degree and contains a Hamiltonian $3$-factor, then its line graph is Hamilton decomposable. This result partially extends Kotzigs result that a $3 $-regular graph is Hamiltonian if and only if its line graph is Hamilton decomposable, and proves the conjecture of Bermond that the line graph of a Hamilton decomposable graph is Hamilton decomposable.
