For given graphs $G_{1}, G_{2}, ... , G_{k}, k \geq 2$, the multicolor Ramsey number $R(G_{1}, G_{2}, ... , G_{k})$ is the smallest integer $n$ such that if we arbitrarily color the edges of the complete graph of order $n$ with $k$ colors,…

Fix integers $d,r\ge 2$ and suppose that the edge set of the $d$-fold Cartesian product of the $N$-clique $K_N^d$ is $r$-colored. We show that there is a copy of $K_n^d$ whose edges in each direction are monochromatic provided $N > 2^{2^{c…

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…

We say $G\to (\mathcal{C}, P_n)$ if $G-E(F)$ contains an $n$-vertex path $P_n$ for any spanning forest $F\subset G$. The size Ramsey number $\hat{R}(\mathcal{C}, P_n)$ is the smallest integer $m$ such that there exists a graph $G$ with $m$…

An ordered graph is a pair $\mathcal{G}=(G,\prec)$ where $G$ is a graph and $\prec$ is a total ordering of its vertices. The ordered Ramsey number $\overline{R}(\mathcal{G})$ is the minimum number $N$ such that every $2$-coloring of the…

Let $r_k(s, e; t)$ denote the smallest $N$ such that any red/blue edge coloring of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph on $N$ vertices contains either $e$ red edges among some $s$ vertices, or a blue clique of size $t$. Erd\H os and Hajnal…
