A subgraph of an edge-colored graph is called \emph{rainbow} if all of its edges have distinct colors. There has been much research on the topic of finding a large rainbow matching in a properly edge-colored graph, where a proper…

A $h$-sunflower in a hypergraph is a family of edges with $h$ vertices in common. We show that if we colour the edges of a complete hypergraph in such a way that any monochromatic $h$-sunflower has at most $\lambda$ petals, then it contains…

The $k$-colour bipartite Ramsey number of a bipartite graph $H$ is the least integer $N$ for which every $k$-edge-coloured complete bipartite graph $K_{N,N}$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. The study of bipartite Ramsey numbers was…

We show that, for every $r, k$, there is an $n = n(r,k)$ so that any $r$-coloring of the edges of the complete graph on $[n]$ will yield a monochromatic complete subgraph on vertices ${a + \sum_{i \in I} d_i \mid I \subseteq [k]}$ for some…

A path in an edge-colored graph $G$, where adjacent edges may be colored the same, is called a rainbow path if no two edges of the path are colored the same. For a $\kappa$-connected graph $G$ and an integer $k$ with $1\leq k\leq \kappa$,…

For the given bipartite graphs $G_1,G_2,\ldots,G_t$, the multicolor bipartite Ramsey number $BR(G_1,G_2,\ldots,G_t)$ is the smallest positive integer $b$ such that any $t$-edge-coloring of $K_{b,b}$ contains a monochromatic subgraph…

Many well-known problems in Combinatorics can be reduced to finding a large rainbow structure in a certain edge-coloured multigraph. Two celebrated examples of this are Ringel's tree packing conjecture and Ryser's conjecture on transversals…

Let $n,m$ be integers such that $1\leq m\leq (n-2)/2$ and let $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$. Let $\mathcal{G}=\{G_1,\ldots,G_{m+1}\}$ be a family of graphs on the same vertex set $[n]$. In this paper, we prove that if for any $i\in [m+1]$, the…

A path in an edge-colored graph is said to be rainbow if no color repeats on it. An edge-colored graph is said to be rainbow $k$-connected if every pair of vertices is connected by $k$ internally disjoint rainbow paths. The rainbow…

For two graphs, $G$, and $H$, an edge-coloring of a complete graph is $(G,H)$-good if there is no monochromatic subgraph isomorphic to $G$ and no rainbow subgraph isomorphic to $H$ in this coloring. The set of number of colors used by some…

We study edge-colorings of the complete $p$-graph on $n$ vertices that contain no three edges $A,B,C$ of distinct colors such that the symmetric difference of $A$ and $B$ is contained in $C$. For $p\ge3$ and $n\ge p+1$, we show that every…
