Consider a matroid $M=(E,\mathcal{I})$ with its elements of the ground set $E$ colored. A rainbow basis is a maximum independent set in which each element receives a different color. The rank of a subset $S$ of $E$, denoted by $r_M(S)$, is…
A family $\mathcal{G}$ of sets is a weak copy of a poset $P$ if there is a bijection $f:P\rightarrow \mathcal{G}$ such that $p\leqslant q$ implies $f(p)\subseteq f(q)$. If $f$ satisfies $p\leqslant q$ if and only if $f(p)\subseteq f(q)$,…
The generalized Ramsey number $r(G, H, q)$ is the minimum number of colors needed to color the edges of $G$ such that every isomorphic copy of $H$ has at least $q$ colors. In this note, we improve the upper and lower bounds on $r(K_{n, n},…
The study of Ramsey-type problems for linear equations originated with Schur's theorem and was later placed in a systematic framework by Richard Rado. In the off-diagonal setting, one fixes a pair of distinct linear equations…
A classical result in combinatorial number theory states that the largest subset of $[n]$ avoiding a solution to the equation $x+y=z$ is of size $\lceil n/2 \rceil$. For all integers $k>m$, we prove multicolored extensions of this result…
Let $n$, $s$, and $k$ be positive integers. We say that a sequence $f_1,\dots,f_s$ of nonnegative integers is satisfying if for any collection of $s$ families $\mathcal F_1,\dots,\mathcal F_s\subseteq [n]^k$ such that $|\mathcal F_i|=f_i$…
If E is a linear homogenous equation and c a natural then the Rado number $R_c(E)$ is the least N so that any c-coloring of the positive integers from 1 to N contains a monochromatic solution. Rado characterized for which E R_c(E) always…
A subgraph of an edge-colored graph is rainbow if all of its edges have different colors. Let $G$ and $H$ be two graphs. The anti-Ramsey number $\ar(G, H)$ is the maximum number of colors of an edge-coloring of $G$ that does not contain a…
An edge-coloured cycle is $rainbow$ if all edges of the cycle have distinct colours. For $k\geq 1$, let $\mathcal{F}_{k}$ denote the family of all graphs with the property that any $k$ vertices lie on a cycle. For $G\in \mathcal{F}_{k}$, a…
The $r$-color size-Ramsey number of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$, denoted by $\hat{R}_r(H)$, is the minimum number of edges in a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ such that for every $r$-coloring of the edges of $G$ there exists a monochromatic…
For graphs $G$ and $H$, let $G \overset{\mathrm{rb}}{{\longrightarrow}} H$ denote the property that for every proper edge colouring of $G$ there is a rainbow copy of $H$ in $G$. Extending a result of Nenadov, Person, \v{S}kori\'{c} and…
Given an equation, the integers $[n] = \{1, 2, \dots, n\}$ as inputs, and the colors red and blue, how can we color $[n]$ in order to minimize the number of monochromatic solutions to the equation, and what is the minimum? The answer is…
Let $\Delta_s=R(K_3,K_s)-R(K_3,K_{s-1})$, where $R(G,H)$ is the Ramsey number of graphs $G$ and $H$ defined as the smallest $n$ such that any edge coloring of $K_n$ with two colors contains $G$ in the first color or $H$ in the second color.…
For a fixed graph $F$, the $\textit{anti-Ramsey number}$, $AR(n,F)$, is the maximum number of colors in an edge-coloring of $K_n$ which does not contain a rainbow copy of $F$. In this paper, we determine the exact value of anti-Ramsey…
We consider Rado numbers of the regular equations $\mathcal{E}(b)$ of the form \[ c_1x_1+c_2x_2+\dots+ c_{k-1}x_{k-1} = x_k + b, \] where $b \in \mathbb{Z}$ and $c_i \in \mathbb{Z}^{+}$ for all $i$. We give the upper bounds and the…
A finite set $ S \subset \mathbb{R} $ is called a Sidon set if all sums $ x+y $ with $ x,y \in S $ and $ x \le y $ are distinct, and a weak Sidon set if all sums $ x+y $ with $ x,y \in S $ and $ x < y $ are distinct. For a finite set $ A…
An edge-colored graph is called a rainbow graph if all its edges have distinct colors. The anti-Ramsey number $ar(n, G)$, for a graph $G$ and a positive integer $n$, is defined as the minimum number of colors $r$ such that every exact…
For two graphs $G^<$ and $H^<$ with linearly ordered vertex sets, the ordered Ramsey number $r_<(G^<,H^<)$ is the minimum $N$ such that every red-blue coloring of the edges of the ordered complete graph on $N$ vertices contains a red copy…
For graphs $G$ and $H$, we write $G \overset{\mathrm{rb}}{\longrightarrow} H $ if any proper edge-coloring of $G$ contains a rainbow copy of $H$, i.e., a copy where no color appears more than once. Kohayakawa, Konstadinidis and the last…
An edge-colored graph is called \textit{rainbow graph} if all the colors on its edges are distinct. For a given positive integer $n$ and a family of graphs $\mathcal{G}$, the anti-Ramsey number $ar(n, \mathcal{G})$ is the smallest number of…
