We address a core partition regularity problem in Ramsey theory by proving that every finite coloring of the positive integers contains monochromatic Pythagorean pairs, i.e., $x,y\in \mathbb{N}$ such that $x^2\pm y^2=z^2$ for some $z\in…

We state the Ramsey property of classes of ordered structures with closures and given local properties. This generalises many old and new results: the Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il-R\"{o}dl Theorem, the author's Ramsey lift of bowtie-free graphs as well…

For positive integers $n,r,s$ with $r > s$, the set-coloring Ramsey number $R(n;r,s)$ is the minimum $N$ such that if every edge of the complete graph $K_N$ receives a set of $s$ colors from a palette of $r$ colors, then there is guaranteed…

We resolve the Ramsey problem for $\{x,y,z:x+y=p(z)\}$ for all polynomials $p$ over $\mathbb{Z}$. In particular, we characterise all polynomials that are $2$-Ramsey, that is, those $p(z)$ such that any $2$-colouring of $\mathbb{N}$ contains…

The upper (mixed) domination Ramsey number $u(m, n)$($v(m,n)$) is the smallest integer $p$ such that every $2$-coloring of the edges of $K_p$ with color red and blue, $\Gamma(B) \geq m$ or $\Gamma(R) \geq n$ ($\beta(R) \geq n$); where $B$…

Balogh and Bollob\'as [{\em Combinatorica 25, 2005}] prove that for any $k$ there is a constant $f(k)$ such that any set system with at least $f(k)$ sets reduces to a $k$-star, an $k$-costar or an $k$-chain. They proved $f(k)<(2k)^{2^k}$.…

For every $k\ge 2$ and $\Delta$, we prove that there exists a constant $C_{\Delta,k}$ such that the following holds. For every graph $H$ with $\chi(H)=k$ and every tree with at least $C_{\Delta,k}|H|$ vertices and maximum degree at most…

We generalise a result of Sawyer to show the following: For each y\in R^p and w\in R^q let \Gamma(y,w) be a measurable d-dimensional surface in R^n. Under conditions on the number of parameters and smoothness assumptions, there exists a set…

A graph $G$ is $q$-Ramsey for another graph $H$ if in any $q$-edge-colouring of $G$ there is a monochromatic copy of $H$, and the classic Ramsey problem asks for the minimum number of vertices in such a graph. This was broadened in the…

A set of points $S$ in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called \textit{Ramsey} if any finite partition of $\mathbb{R}^{\infty}$ yields a monochromatic copy of $S$. While characterization of Ramsey set remains a major open problem in the…

We show that, for any prime $p$ and integer $k \geq 2$, a simple GF($p$)-representable matroid with sufficiently high rank has a rank-$k$ flat which is either independent in $M$, or is a projective or affine geometry. As a corollary we…

The Ramsey number $R_X(p,q)$ for a class of graphs $X$ is the minimum $n$ such that every graph in $X$ with at least $n$ vertices has either a clique of size $p$ or an independent set of size $q$. We say that Ramsey numbers are linear in…

Ramsey's theorem states that each coloring has an infinite homogeneous set, but these sets can be arbitrarily spread out. Paul Erdos and Fred Galvin proved that for each coloring f, there is an infinite set that is "packed together" which…

Given partially ordered sets (posets) $(P, \leq_P)$ and $(P', \leq_{P'})$, we say that $P'$ contains a copy of $P$ if for some injective function $f\colon P\rightarrow P'$ and for any $A, B\in P$, $A\leq _P B$ if and only if $f(A)\leq_{P'}…

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…

The weighted Ramsey number, ${\rm wR}(n,k)$, is the minimum $q$ such that there is an assignment of nonnegative real numbers (weights) to the edges of $K_n$ with the total sum of the weights equal to ${n\choose 2}$ and there is a Red/Blue…

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…

We calibrate the reverse mathematical strength of a family of extensions of Ramsey's theorem to finite colorings of certain subsets of the natural numbers of unbounded finite dimension. Specifically, we analyze the principles…

In this paper, we study Ramsey-type problems for directed graphs. We first consider the $k$-colour oriented Ramsey number of $H$, denoted by $\overrightarrow{R}(H,k)$, which is the least $n$ for which every $k$-edge-coloured tournament on…

Given partially ordered sets (posets) $(P, \leq_P)$ and $(P', \leq_{P'})$, we say that $P'$ contains a copy of $P$ if for some injective function $f: P\rightarrow P'$ and for any $X, Y\in P$, $X\leq _P Y$ if and only of $f(X)\leq_{P'}…
