Let $\chi_{\bar{k}}(n)$ be the number of colors required to color the $n$-dimensional hypercube such that no two vertices with the same color are at a distance at most $k$. In other words, $\chi_{\bar{k}}(n)$ is the minimum number of binary…

An $(m, n)$-colored mixed graph is a graph having arcs of $m$ different colors and edges of $n$ different colors. A graph homomorphism of an $(m, n$)-colored mixed graph $G$ to an $(m, n)$-colored mixed graph $H$ is a vertex mapping such…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a 3-uniform hypergraph. The multicolor Ramsey number $ r_k(\mathcal{H})$ is the smallest integer $n$ such that every coloring of $ \binom{[n]}{3}$ with $k$ colors has a monochromatic copy of $\mathcal{H}$. Let $…

For any $n \geq 0$ and $k \geq 1$, the \emph{density Hales-Jewett number} $c_{n,k}$ is defined as the size of the largest subset of the cube $[k]^n$ := $\{1,...,k\}^n$ which contains no combinatorial line; similarly, the Moser number…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, a homomorphism from $G$ to $H$, or $H$-coloring of $G$, is a map from the vertices of $G$ to the vertices of $H$ that preserves adjacency. When $H$ is composed of an edge with one looped endvertex, an $H$-coloring of…

Jungi\'{c} et al (2003) defined $T_{k}$ as the minimal number $t \in \mathbb{N}$ such that there is a rainbow arithmetic progression of length $k$ in every equinumerous $t$-coloring of $[t n]$ for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$. They proved that…

We say a pair of integers $(a, b)$ is findable if the following is true. For any $\delta > 0$ there exists a $p_0$ such that for any prime $p \ge p_0$ and any red-blue colouring of $\mathbb{Z} /p\mathbb{Z}$ in which each colour has density…

A packing $k$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a partition of $V(G)$ into sets $V_1,\ldots,V_k$ such that for each $1\leq i\leq k$ the distance between any two distinct $x,y\in V_i$ is at least $i+1$. The packing chromatic number, $\chi_p(G)$, of…

A result of Gy\'arf\'as exactly determines the size of a largest monochromatic component in an arbitrary $r$-coloring of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph $K_n^k$ when $k\geq 2$ and $r-1\leq k\leq r$. We prove a result which says that if…

For $0<\delta\leq 1$, let $R_k(m;\delta)$ denote the smallest $N$ such that every coloring of $k$-element subsets by two colors yields an $m$-element set $M$ with relative discrepancy $\delta$, which means that one color class has at least…

Given graphs $H_1, H_2, \dots, H_k$, the Ramsey number $R(H_1, \dots, H_k)$ is the smallest integer $n$ for which in any coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ with colors $1,2,\dots,k$, there is some color $i$ with a…

We show how to adjust a very nice coupling argument due to McDiarmid in order to prove/reprove in a novel way results concerning Hamilton cycles in various models of random graph and hypergraphs. In particular, we firstly show that for…

In this paper, we introduce new general frameworks for estimating the maximal dimension of Hilbert cubes contained in finite truncations of arbitrary sets. As applications, we investigate Hilbert cubes in a range of arithmetic sets,…

For a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $\delta_1(H)$ denote the minimum vertex degree of $H$, and $\nu(H)$ denote the size of the largest matching in $H$. In this paper, we show that for any $k\geq 3$ and $\beta>0$, there exists an integer…

Recall that van der Waerden's theorem states that any finite coloring of the naturals has arbitrarily long monochromatic arithmetic sequences. We explore questions about the set of differences of those sequences.

Given a graph $G$ and a nondecreasing sequence $S=(s_1,\ldots,s_k)$ of positive integers, the mapping $c:V(G)\longrightarrow \{1,\ldots,k\}$ is called an $S$-packing coloring of $G$ if for any two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ in…

The Ramsey number $r_k(s,n)$ is the minimum $N$ such that every red-blue coloring of the $k$-subsets of $\{1, \ldots, N\}$ contains a red set of size $s$ or a blue set of size $n$, where a set is red (blue) if all of its $k$-subsets are red…

A Hilbert cube of dimension $d$ is the set of integers \[ H(a_{0}; a_{1}, \ldots, a_{d})=a_{0}+\{0, a_{1}\}+\cdots+\{0, a_{d}\}=\left\{a_{0}+\sum_{i=1}^{d}\varepsilon_{i}a_{i}:\;\varepsilon_{i}\in\{0,1\}\right\}. \] Brown, Erd\H{o}s and…

We study the generalized Ramsey numbers $f(Q_n, C_{k}, q)$, that is, the minimum number of colors needed to edge-color the hypercube $Q_n$ so that every copy of the cycle $C_{k}$ has at least $q$ colors. Our main result is that for any…

We present a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph of odd-girth $2k+1$ to bound the class of $K_4$-minor-free graphs of odd-girth (at least) $2k+1$, that is, to admit a homomorphism from any such $K_4$-minor-free graph. This yields…
