Rado Numbers of Regular Nonhomogeneous Equations

Combinatorics 2019-09-02 v1

Abstract

We consider Rado numbers of the regular equations E(b)\mathcal{E}(b) of the form c1x1+c2x2++ck1xk1=xk+b, c_1x_1+c_2x_2+\dots+ c_{k-1}x_{k-1} = x_k + b, where bZb \in \mathbb{Z} and ciZ+c_i \in \mathbb{Z}^{+} for all ii. We give the upper bounds and the sufficient condition for the lower bounds for tt-color Rado numbers r(E(b);t)r(\mathcal{E}(b);t) in terms of r(E(0);t)r(\mathcal{E}(0);t) for both b>0b>0 and b<0b<0. We also give examples where the exact values of Rado numbers are obtained from these results.
