A finite Euclidean set is diameter-Ramsey if, for every number of colors, some finite same-diameter witness has the property that every coloring of the witness contains a monochromatic congruent copy of the set. Frankl, Pach, Reiher and…

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…

Corsten and Frankl conjectured that a simplex is diameter-Ramsey if and only if its circumcenter lies in its convex hull. We disprove this conjecture in every dimension $d\ge 3$. The main tool is a sufficient criterion based on a…

The set-colouring Ramsey number $R_{r,s}(k)$ is defined to be the minimum $n$ such that if each edge of the complete graph $K_n$ is assigned a set of $s$ colours from $\{1,\ldots,r\}$, then one of the colours contains a monochromatic clique…

A finite set $X$ in a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called Ramsey if for every $k$ there exists an integer $n$ such that whenever $\mathbb{R}^n$ is coloured with $k$ colours, there is a monochromatic copy of $X$. Graham conjectured that…

If we two-colour a circle, we can always find an inscribed triangle with angles $(\frac{\pi}{7},\frac{2\pi}{7},\frac{4\pi}{7})$ whose three vertices have the same colour. In fact, Bialostocki and Nielsen showed that it is enough to consider…

A symmetric subset of the reals is one that remains invariant under some reflection z --> c-z. We consider, for any 0 < x <= 1, the largest real number D(x) such that every subset of $[0,1]$ with measure greater than x contains a symmetric…

We say that a subset $M$ of $\mathbb R^n$ is exponentially Ramsey if there are $\epsilon>0$ and $n_0$ such that $\chi(\mathbb R^n,M)\ge(1+\epsilon)^n$ for any $n>n_0$, where $\chi(\mathbb R^n,M)$ stands for the minimum number of colors in a…

A graph is $H$-Ramsey if every two-coloring of its edges contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. Define the $F$-Ramsey number of $H$, denoted by $r_F(H)$, to be the minimum number of copies of $F$ in a graph which is $H$-Ramsey. This…

The size-Ramsey number of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of edges in a graph $H$ such that every 2-edge-coloring of $H$ yields a monochromatic copy of $G$. Size-Ramsey numbers of graphs have been studied for almost 40 years with…

We estimate the Ramsey number r(T) = r(T,T) for various trees T, obtaining a precise value for r(T) for a large number of trees of diameter 3. Furthermore we prove that all trees of diameter 3 are Ramsey unsaturated as defined by Balister,…

A set $X$ is called Euclidean Ramsey if, for any $k$ and sufficiently large $n$, every $k$-colouring of $\mathbb{R}^n$ contains a monochromatic congruent copy of $X$. This notion was introduced by Erd\H{o}s, Graham, Montgomery, Rothschild,…

A finite set $X$ in some Euclidean space $R^n$ is called Ramsey if for any $k$ there is a $d$ such that whenever $R^d$ is $k$-coloured it contains a monochromatic set congruent to $X$. This notion was introduced by Erdos, Graham,…

In 1991, McKay and Radziszowski proved that, however each 3-subset of a 13-set is assigned one of two colours, there is some 4-subset whose four 3-subsets have the same colour. More than 25 years later, this remains the only non-trivial…

We say a set of points $C\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is canonically Ramsey if there is some set of points $S\subset \mathbb{R}^{n'}$ such that any colouring of $S$, with any number of colours, admits either a monochromatic or rainbow copy of $C$…

Let $[a,b]$ denote the integers between $a$ and $b$ inclusive and, for a finite subset $X \subseteq \mathbb{Z}$, let the diameter of $X$ be equal to $\max(X)-\min(X)$. We write $X<_p\,Y$ provided $\max(X)<\min(Y)$. For a positive integer…
