Abstract

There exists a minimum integer NN such that any 2-coloring of {1,2,...,N}\{1,2,...,N\} admits a monochromatic solution to x+y+kz=wx+y+kz =\ell w for k,Z+k,\ell \in \mathbb{Z}^+, where NN depends on kk and \ell. We determine NN when k{0,1,2,3,4,5}\ell-k \in \{0,1,2,3,4,5\}, for all k,k,\ell for which 1/2((k)22)(k+1)k4{1/2}((\ell-k)^2-2)(\ell-k+1)\leq k \leq \ell-4, as well as for arbitrary kk when =2\ell=2.
