In this article, we investigate homogeneous versions of certain nonlinear Ramsey-theoretic results, with three significant applications. As the first application, we prove that for every finite coloring of $\mathbb{Z}^+$, there exist an…

Let D be a finite set of positive real numbers. The distance graph G(R,D) is the graph with vertex set R (set of real numbers), and two vertices x, y are adjacent if |x-y| belongs to D. We prove that every positive integer t>1 there is a…

Folkman's Theorem asserts that for each $k \in \mathbb{N}$, there exists a natural number $n = F(k)$ such that whenever the elements of $[n]$ are two-coloured, there exists a set $A \subset [n]$ of size $k$ with the property that all the…

We show that for non-zero integers $a$ and $b$ there is a natural number $N < \exp(r^{2+o_{a,b;r\rightarrow \infty}(1)})$ such that in any $r$-colouring of $\{1,\dots,N\}$ there are $x,y,z$, all in the same colour class, such that…

We study the number of monochromatic solution to linear equation in $\{1,\dots,n\}$ when we color the set by at least three colors. We consider the $r$-commonness for $r\geq 3$ of linear equation with odd number of terms, and we also prove…

The solution to the problem of finding the minimum number of monochromatic triples $(x,y,x+ay)$ with $a\geq 2$ being a fixed positive integer over any 2-coloring of $[1,n]$ was conjectured by Butler, Costello, and Graham (2010) and…

We show that for $m, r \in \mathbb{N}$ and $N > (2m+1)^r (r!)^{1/m}$, every $r$-coloring of the integers in the interval $[N]$ contains a monochromatic solution to the equation \[ x_1 + \dots + \dots x_{m+1} = y_1 + \dots + y_m. \] This…

It was proved that whenever N is partitioned into finitely many cells, one cell must contain arbitrary length geo-arithmetic progressions. It was also proved that arithmetic and geometric progressions can be nicely intertwined in one cell…

We prove that the vertices of every $(r + 1)$-uniform hypergraph with maximum degree $\Delta$ may be coloured with $c(\frac{\Delta}{d + 1})^{1/r}$ colours such that each vertex is in at most $d$ monochromatic edges. This result, which is…

Given a finite coloring (or finite partition) of the free semigroup $A^+$ over a set $A$, we consider various types of monochromatic factorizations of right sided infinite words $x\in A^\omega$. Some stronger versions of the usual notion of…

We prove a theorem ensuring that the compositions of certain Ramsey families are still Ramsey. As an application, we show that in any finite coloring of $\mathbb{N}$ there is an infinite set $A$ and an as large as desired finite set $B$…

For any subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, we define its upper density to be $\limsup_{ n \rightarrow \infty } |A \cap \{ 1, \dotsc, n \}| / n$. We prove that every $2$-edge-colouring of the complete graph on $\mathbb{N}$ contains a…

There are many extremely challenging problems about existence of monochromatic arithmetic progressions in colorings of groups. Many theorems hold only for abelian groups as results on non-abelian groups are often much more difficult to…

We prove that in every $2$-edge-colouring of $K_n$ there is a collection of $n^2/12 + o(n^2)$ edge-disjoint monochromatic triangles, thus confirming a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. We also prove a corresponding stability result, showing that…

It is consistent for every (1 <= n< omega) that (2^omega = omega_n) and there is a function (F:[omega_n]^{< omega}-> omega) such that every finite set can be written at most (2^n-1) ways as the union of two distinct monocolored sets. If GCH…
