There are many extremely challenging problems about existence of monochromatic arithmetic progressions in colorings of groups. Many theorems hold only for abelian groups as results on non-abelian groups are often much more difficult to…

We study the list-chromatic number and the coloring number of graphs, especially uncountable graphs. We show that the coloring number of a graph coincides with its list-chromatic number provided that the diamond principle holds. Under the…

Recall that the minimum number of colors that allow a proper coloring of graph $G$ is called the chromatic number of $G$ and denoted by $\chi(G).$ In this paper the concepts of $\chi$'-chromatic sum and $\chi^+$-chromatic sum are…

An infinite integer matrix A is called image partition regular if, whenever the natural numbers are finitely coloured, there is an integer vector x such that Ax is monochromatic. Given an image partition regular matrix A, can we also insist…

In this paper, we continue the study of $2$-colorings in hypergraphs. A hypergraph is $2$-colorable if there is a $2$-coloring of the vertices with no monochromatic hyperedge. It is known (see Thomassen [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 5 (1992),…

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…

Raimi's theorem guarantees the existence of a partition of $\mathbb{N}$ into two parts with an unavoidable intersection property: for any finite coloring of $\mathbb{N}$, some color class intersects both parts infinitely many times, after…

We extend Deuber's theorem on $(m,p,c)$-sets to hold over the multidimensional positive integer lattices. This leads to a multidimensional Rado theorem where we are guaranteed monochromatic multidimensional points in all finite colorings of…

Let ${\cal{F}}=\{F_1,F_2,\ldots\}$ be a sequence of graphs such that $F_n$ is a graph on $n$ vertices with maximum degree at most $\Delta$. We show that there exists an absolute constant $C$ such that the vertices of any 2-edge-colored…

An open conjecture of Erd\H{o}s states that for every positive integer $k$ there is a (least) positive integer $f(k)$ so that whenever a tournament has its edges colored with $k$ colors, there exists a set $S$ of at most $f(k)$ vertices so…

Given a metric space $\mathcal{M}$ that contains at least two points, the chromatic number $\chi\left(\mathbb{R}^n_{\infty}, \mathcal{M} \right)$ is defined as the minimum number of colours needed to colour all points of an $n$-dimensional…

We study the extension of the Kechris-Solecki-Todorcevic dichotomy on analytic graphs to dimensions higher than 2. We prove that the extension is possible in any dimension, finite or infinite. The original proof works in the case of the…

We show that the existence of a universal countably chromatic graph of size $\aleph_1$ together with the failure of continuum hypothesis is consistent. The proof is a forcing iteration of strongly proper ccc posets. The construction works…

Consider edge colorings of digraphs where edges $v_1 v_2$ and $v_2 v_3$ have different colors. This coloring induces a vertex coloring by sets of edge colors, in which edge $v_1 v_2$ in the graph implies that the set color of $v_1$ contains…

A graph $G$ arrows a graph $H$ if in every $2$-edge-coloring of $G$ there exists a monochromatic copy of $H$. Schelp had the idea that if the complete graph $K_n$ arrows a small graph $H$, then every "dense" subgraph of $K_n$ also arrows…

Let $X,Y$ be finite sets, $r,s,h, \lambda \in \mathbb{N}$ with $s\geq r, X\subsetneq Y$. By $\lambda \binom{X}{h}$ we mean the collection of all $h$-subsets of $X$ where each subset occurs $\lambda$ times. A coloring of…

Given integers $m\le c$ and an exact $c$-coloring of the edges of a complete countably infinite graph (i.e. a coloring that uses exactly $c$ colors), must there be an infinite subgraph that is exactly $m$-colored? Using the Infinite Ramsey…

The Dense Hindman's Theorem states that, in any finite coloring of the integers, one may find a single color and a "dense" set $B_1$, for each $b_1\in B_1$ a "dense" set $B_2^{b_1}$ (depending on $b_1$), for each $b_2\in B_2^{b_1}$ a…
