The thin set theorem $\mathsf{RT}^n_{<\infty,\ell}$ asserts the existence, for every $k$-coloring of the subsets of natural numbers of size $n$, of an infinite set of natural numbers, all of whose subsets of size $n$ use at most $\ell$…

For a set of positive integers $A \subseteq [n]$, an $r$-coloring of $A$ is rainbow sum-free if it contains no rainbow Schur triple. In this paper we initiate the study of the rainbow Erd\H{o}s-Rothchild problem in the context of sum-free…

A coloring of a matroid is proper if elements of the same color form an independent set. A theorem of Seymour asserts that a k-colorable matroid is also colorable from any lists of size k. In this note we generalize this theorem to the…

We study the strength of $\RRT^3_2$, Rainbow Ramsey Theorem for colorings of triples, and prove that $\RCA + \RRT^3_2$ implies neither $\WKL$ nor $\RRT^4_2$. To this end, we establish some recursion theoretic properties of cohesive sets and…

A Gallai coloring of the complete graph is an edge-coloring with no rainbow triangle. This concept first appeared in the study of comparability graphs and anti-Ramsey theory. We introduce a transitive analogue for acyclic directed graphs,…

A result of Rosenthal says that for every $q>1$ and $n \in \mathbb{N}$ there is $N \in \mathbb{N}$ such that every sequence of $N$ distinct positive numbers contains, after a suitable translation and possible multiplication by $-1$, a…

We show that for any integer $k\ge 1$ there exists an integer $t_0(k)$ such that for integers $t, k_1, \ldots, k_{t+1}, n$ with $t>t_0(k)$, $\max\{k_1, \ldots, k_{t+1}\}\le k$, and $n > 2k(t+1)$, the following holds: If $F_i \subseteq…

A rainbow colouring of a connected graph is a colouring of the edges of the graph, such that every pair of vertices is connected by at least one path in which no two edges are coloured the same. Such a colouring using minimum possible…

B\'ar\'any's "topological Tverberg conjecture" from 1976 states that any continuous map of an $N$-simplex $\Delta_N$ to $\mathbb{R}^d$, for $N\ge(d+1)(r-1)$, maps points from $r$ disjoint faces in $\Delta_N$ to the same point in…

An edge-colouring of a graph $G$ can fail to be rainbow for two reasons: either it contains a monochromatic cherry (a pair of incident edges), or a monochromatic matching of size two. A colouring is a proper colouring if it forbids the…

An \emph{interval $t$-coloring} of a multigraph $G$ is a proper edge coloring with colors $1,\dots,t$ such that the colors on the edges incident to every vertex of $G$ are colored by consecutive colors. A \emph{cyclic interval $t$-coloring}…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ with an edge-coloring $c$, and let $\delta^c(G)$ denote the minimum color degree of $G$. A subgraph $F$ of $G$ is called rainbow if all edges of $F$ have pairwise distinct colors. There have been a lot…

An edge-coloured cycle is $rainbow$ if all edges of the cycle have distinct colours. For $k\geq 1$, let $\mathcal{F}_{k}$ denote the family of all graphs with the property that any $k$ vertices lie on a cycle. For $G\in \mathcal{F}_{k}$, a…

A ring is a graph $R$ whose vertex set can be partitioned into $k \geq 4$ nonempty sets, $X_1, \dots, X_k$, such that for all $i \in \{1,\dots,k\}$, the set $X_i$ can be ordered as $X_i = \{u_i^1, \dots, u_i^{|X_i|}\}$ so that $X_i…

The input to the no-rainbow hypergraph coloring problem is a hypergraph $H$ where every hyperedge has $r$ nodes. The question is whether there exists an $r$-coloring of the nodes of $H$ such that all $r$ colors are used and there is no…

A graph coloring has bounded clustering if each monochromatic component has bounded size. Equivalently, it is a partition of the vertices into induced subgraphs with bounded size components. This paper studies clustered colorings of graphs,…

Classes with bounded rankwidth are MSO-transductions of trees and classes with bounded linear rankwidth are MSO-transductions of paths. These results show a strong link between the properties of these graph classes considered from the point…

We show that it is consistent relative to the existence of suitable large cardinals that for any countable-to-one coloring $c: [\omega_2]^2\to \omega_2$, there exists a closed subset $A\subseteq \omega_2$ of order type $\omega_1$ such that…

An edge colored graph is said to contain rainbow-$F$ if $F$ is a subgraph and every edge receives a different color. In 2007, Keevash, Mubayi, Sudakov, and Verstra\"ete introduced the \emph{rainbow extremal number} $\mathrm{ex}^*(n,F)$, a…
