Let $G$ be a 3-partite graph with $k$ vertices in each part and suppose that between any two parts, there is no cycle of length four. Fischer and Matouu{s}ek asked for the maximum number of triangles in such a graph. A simple construction involving arbitrary projective planes shows that there is such a graph with $(1 - o(1)) k^{3/2} $ triangles, and a double counting argument shows that one cannot have more than $(1+o(1)) k^{7/4} $ triangles. Using affine planes defined by specific planar polynomials over finite fields, we improve the lower bound to $(1 - o(1)) k^{5/3}$.

For positive integers $w$ and $k$, two vectors $A$ and $B$ from $mathbb{Z}^w$ are called $k$-crossing if there are two coordinates $i$ and $j$ such that $A[i]-B[i]geq k$ and $B[j]-A[j]geq k$. What is the maximum size of a family of pairwise $1$-cross ing and pairwise non-$k$-crossing vectors in $mathbb{Z}^w$? We state a conjecture that the answer is $k^{w-1}$. We prove the conjecture for $wleq 3$ and provide weaker upper bounds for $wgeq 4$. Also, for all $k$ and $w$, we construct several quite different examples of families of desired size $k^{w-1}$. This research is motivated by a natural question concerning the width of the lattice of maximum antichains of a partially ordered set.
An edge-coloring of a connected graph $G$ is called a {em monochromatic connection coloring} (MC-coloring for short) if any two vertices of $G$ are connected by a monochromatic path in $G$. For a connected graph $G$, the {em monochromatic connection number} (MC-number for short) of $G$, denoted by $mc(G)$, is the maximum number of colors that ensure $G$ has a monochromatic connection coloring by using this number of colors. This concept was introduced by Caro and Yuster in 2011. They proved that $mc(G)leq m-n+k$ if $G$ is not a $k$-connected graph. In this paper we depict all graphs with $mc(G)=m-n+k+1$ and $mc(G)= m-n+k$ if $G$ is a $k$-connected but not $(k+1)$-connected graph. We also prove that $mc(G)leq m-n+4$ if $G$ is a planar graph, and classify all planar graphs by their monochromatic connectivity numbers.
Given a graph $H$, a graph is $H$-free if it does not contain $H$ as a subgraph. We continue to study the topic of extremal planar graphs, that is, how many edges can an $H$-free planar graph on $n$ vertices have? We define $ex_{_mathcal{P}}(n,H)$ to be the maximum number of edges in an $H$-free planar graph on $n $ vertices. We first obtain several sufficient conditions on $H$ which yield $ex_{_mathcal{P}}(n,H)=3n-6$ for all $nge |V(H)|$. We discover that the chromatic number of $H$ does not play a role, as in the celebrated ErdH{o}s-Stone Theorem. We then completely determine $ex_{_mathcal{P}}(n,H)$ when $H$ is a wheel or a star. Finally, we examine the case when $H$ is a $(t, r)$-fan, that is, $H$ is isomorphic to $K_1+tK_{r-1}$, where $tge2$ and $rge 3$ are integers. However, determining $ex_{_mathcal{P}}(n,H)$, when $H$ is a planar subcubic graph, remains wide open.
A spanning tree of an edge-colored graph is rainbow provided that each of its edges receives a distinct color. In this paper we consider the natural extremal problem of maximizing and minimizing the number of rainbow spanning trees in a graph $G$. Su ch a question clearly needs restrictions on the colorings to be meaningful. For edge-colorings using $n-1$ colors and without rainbow cycles, known in the literature as JL-colorings, there turns out to be a particularly nice way of counting the rainbow spanning trees and we solve this problem completely for JL-colored complete graphs $K_n$ and complete bipartite graphs $K_{n,m}$. In both cases, we find tight upper and lower bounds; the lower bound for $K_n$, in particular, proves to have an unexpectedly chaotic and interesting behavior. We further investigate this question for JL-colorings of general graphs and prove several results including characterizing graphs which have JL-colorings achieving the lowest possible number of rainbow spanning trees. We establish other results for general $n-1$ colorings, including providing an analogue of Kirchoffs matrix tree theorem which yields a way of counting rainbow spanning trees in a general graph $G$.

The bloom of complex network study, in particular, with respect to scale-free ones, is considerably triggering the research of scale-free graph itself. Therefore, a great number of interesting results have been reported in the past, including bounds of diameter. In this paper, we focus mainly on a problem of how to analytically estimate the lower bound of diameter of scale-free graph, i.e., how small scale-free graph can be. Unlike some pre-existing methods for determining the lower bound of diameter, we make use of a constructive manner in which one candidate model $mathcal{G^*} (mathcal{V^*}, mathcal{E^*})$ with ultra-small diameter can be generated. In addition, with a rigorous proof, we certainly demonstrate that the diameter of graph $mathcal{G^{*}}(mathcal{V^{*}},mathcal{E^{*}})$ must be the smallest in comparison with that of any scale-free graph. This should be regarded as the tight lower bound.
