We study a restriction of Ramsey's theorem for 2-coloring of triples, in which homogeneous sets for color~1 are of bounded size ($\mathsf{BRT}^3_2$). We prove that the computational content of this statement is very close to Ramsey's…

The Carlson-Simpson lemma is a combinatorial statement occurring in the proof of the Dual Ramsey theorem. Formulated in terms of variable words, it informally asserts that given any finite coloring of the strings, there is an infinite…

We prove a Ramsey theorem for finite sets equipped with a partial order and a fixed number of linear orders extending the partial order. This is a common generalization of two recent Ramsey theorems due to Soki\'c. As a bonus, our proof…

One of the consequences of the Compactness Principle in structural Ramsey theory is that the small Ramsey degrees cannot exceed the corresponding big Ramsey degrees, thereby justifying the choice of adjectives. However, it is unclear what…

We study density and partition properties of polynomial equations in prime variables. We consider equations of the form $a_1h(x_1) + \cdots + a_sh(x_s)=b$, where the $a_i$ and $b$ are fixed coefficients, and $h$ is an arbitrary integer…

Nowhere dense classes of graphs are classes of sparse graphs with rich structural and algorithmic properties, however, they fail to capture even simple classes of dense graphs. Monadically stable classes, originating from model theory,…

A family $\mathcal{G}$ of sets is a weak copy of a poset $P$ if there is a bijection $f:P\rightarrow \mathcal{G}$ such that $p\leqslant q$ implies $f(p)\subseteq f(q)$. If $f$ satisfies $p\leqslant q$ if and only if $f(p)\subseteq f(q)$,…

In this series of papers we advance Ramsey theory of colorings over partitions. In this part, we concentrate on anti-Ramsey relations, or, as they are better known, strong colorings, and in particular solve two problems from [CKS21]. It is…

In Euclidean Ramsey Theory usually we are looking for monochromatic configurations in the Euclidean space, whose points are colored with a fixed number of colors. In the canonical version, the number of colors is arbitrary, and we are…

In recent years, there has been a substantial amount of work in reverse mathematics concerning natural mathematical principles that are provable from $\RT$, Ramsey's Theorem for Pairs. These principles tend to fall outside of the "big five"…

``What aspects of a group are unchanged, or stable, under homology equivalences''? The model theorem in this regard is the 1963 result of J. Stallings that the lower central series is preserved under any integral homological equivalence of…

We analyze the Dual Ramsey Theorem for $k$ partitions and $\ell$ colors ($\mathsf{DRT}^k_\ell$) in the context of reverse math, effective analysis, and strong reductions. Over $\mathsf{RCA}_0$, the Dual Ramsey Theorem stated for Baire…

The Ramsey's theorem says that a graph with sufficiently many vertices contains a clique or stable set with many vertices. Now we attach some parameter to every vertex, such as degree. Consider the case a graph with sufficiently many…
