We show that it is consistent relative to a weakly compact cardinal that strong homology is additive and compactly supported within the class of locally compact separable metric spaces. This complements work of Marde\v{s}i\'{c} and Prasolov…
An old question in Ramsey theory asks whether any finite coloring of the natural numbers admits a monochromatic pair $\{x+y,xy\}$. We answer this question affirmatively in a strong sense by exhibiting a large new class of non-linear…
A graph on $n$ vertices is said to be \emph{$C$-Ramsey} if every clique or independent set of the graph has size at most $C \log n$. The only known constructions of Ramsey graphs are probabilistic in nature, and it is generally believed…
This article documents my journey down the rabbit hole, chasing what I have come to know as a particularly unyielding problem in Ramsey theory on the integers: the $2$-Large Conjecture. This conjecture states that if $D \subseteq…
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…
Often regarded as the study of how order emerges from randomness, Ramsey theory has played an important role in mathematics and computer science, giving rise to applications in numerous domains such as logic, parallel processing, and number…
We study the relations under Weihrauch reducibility of the well-ordering preservation principle for the operator $X \mapsto X^\omega$ and the Ordered Ramsey Theorem. Both principles are known to be equivalent to $\Sigma^0_2$-induction in…
The purpose is to study the strength of Ramsey's Theorem for pairs restricted to recursive assignments of $k$-many colors, with respect to Intuitionistic Heyting Arithmetic. We prove that for every natural number $k \geq 2$, Ramsey's…
This is a survey of some of the consequences of the recently introduced congruences on the theory of connectednesses (radical classes) and disconnectednesses (semisimple classes) of graphs and topological spaces. In particular, it is shown…
Classical Ramsey theory has successfully extended to relational structures, yielding a wealth of results that have profoundly influenced other areas of mathematics. Interestingly, the same development has not occurred in the case of dual…
We consider partially ordered sets of combinatorial structures under consecutive orders, meaning that two structures are related when one embeds in the other such that `consecutive' elements remain consecutive in the image. Given such a…
Ramsey's theorem states that for any coloring of the n-element subsets of N with finitely many colors, there is an infinite set H such that all n-element subsets of H have the same color. The strength of consequences of Ramsey's theorem has…
Ramsey's theorem for $n$-tuples and $k$-colors ($\mathsf{RT}^n_k$) asserts that every k-coloring of $[\mathbb{N}]^n$ admits an infinite monochromatic subset. We study the proof-theoretic strength of Ramsey's theorem for pairs and two…
Trees fill many extremal roles in graph theory, being minimally connected and serving a critical role in the definition of $n$-good graphs. In this article, we consider the generalization of trees to the setting of $r$-uniform hypergraphs…
Given a graph $H$, let $\chi_H(\mathbb{R}^n)$ be the smallest positive integer $r$ such that there exists an $r$-coloring of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with no monochromatic unit-copy of $H$, that is a set of $|V(H)|$ vertices of the same color such…
Ramsey's theorem for pairs asserts that every 2-coloring of the pairs of integers has an infinite monochromatic subset. In this paper, we study a strengthening of Ramsey's theorem for pairs due to Erdos and Rado, which states that every…
Let $n\in\omega$. The weak choice principle $\operatorname{RC}_n$ states that for every infinite set $x$ there is an infinite subset $y\subseteq x$ with a choice function on $[y]^n:=\{z\subseteq y\mid \lvert z\rvert =n\}$.…
Informally, a mathematical statement is robust if its strength is left unchanged under variations of the statement. In this paper, we investigate the lack of robustness of Ramsey's theorem and its consequence under the frameworks of reverse…
We study four families of consequences of Ramsey's Theorem from the viewpoint of reverse mathematics. The first, which we call the Achromatic Ramsey Theorem, is from a partition relation introduced by Erd\H{o}s, Hajnal and Rado: $\omega \to…
A graph $G$ is called $H$-good if $R(G,H)=(|G|-1)(\chi(H)-1)+\sigma(H)$, where $\sigma(H)$ denotes the size of the smallest color class in a $\chi(H)$-coloring of $H$. In Ramsey theory, it is an interesting problem to study whether a graph…
