Given graphs $G$ and $H$, we say that $G$ is $H$-$good$ if the Ramsey number $R(G,H)$ equals the trivial lower bound $(|G| - 1)(\chi(H) - 1) + \sigma(H)$, where $\chi(H)$ denotes the usual chromatic number of $H$, and $\sigma(H)$ denotes…

Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, the Ramsey number $R(G,H)$ is the minimum integer $N$ such that any coloring of the edges of $K_N$ in red or blue yields a red $G$ or a blue $H$. Let $v(G)$ be the number of vertices of $G$ and $\chi(G)$ be the…

A graph $G$ is called $H$-good if $R(G,H)=(|G|-1)(\chi(H)-1)+\sigma(H)$, where $\sigma(H)$ denotes the size of the smallest color class in a $\chi(H)$-coloring of $H$. In Ramsey theory, it is an interesting problem to study whether a graph…

For graphs $F_n$ and $G_n$ of order $n$, if $R(F_n, G_n)=(\chi(G_n)-1)(n-1)+\sigma(G_n)$, then $F_n$ is said to be $G_n$-good, where $\sigma(G_n)$ is the minimum size of a color class among all proper vertex-colorings of $G_n$ with…

For graph $G$, a connected graph $H$ of order $n$ is said to be $G$-good if $r(G,H)=(\chi(G)-1)(n-1)+s(G)$, where $\chi(G)$ is the chromatic number of $G$ and $s(G)$ is the minimum size of a color class in a $\chi(G)$-coloring of $G$. Let…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, the Ramsey number $R(G,H)$ is the smallest $r$ such that any red-blue edge coloring of $K_r$ contains a red $G$ or a blue $H$. The path-critical Ramsey number $R_{\pi}(G,H)$ is the largest $n$ such that any red-blue…

The Ramsey number $R(F,H)$ is the minimum number $N$ such that any $N$-vertex graph either contains a copy of $F$ or its complement contains $H$. Burr in 1981 proved a pleasingly general result that for any graph $H$, provided $n$ is…
