For bipartite graphs $G$ and $H$ and a positive integer $m$, the $m$-bipartite Ramsey number $BR_m(G, H)$ of $G$ and $H$ is the smallest integer $n$, such that every red-blue coloring of $K_{m,n}$ results in a red $G$ or a blue $H$.…

Given a graph $G$, its Ramsey number $r(G)$ is the minimum $N$ so that every two-coloring of $E(K_N)$ contains a monochromatic copy of $G$. It was conjectured by Conlon, Fox, and Sudakov that if one deletes a single vertex from $G$, the…

An edge-coloring of the complete graph $K_n$ we call $F$-caring if it leaves no $F$-subgraph of $K_n$ monochromatic and at the same time every subset of $|V(F)|$ vertices contains in it at least one completely multicolored version of $F$.…

In this paper, we investigate the following Gallai-Ramsey question: how large must a complete bipartite graph $K_{n_1, n_2}$ be before any coloring of its edges with $r$ colors contains either a monochromatic copy of $G = K_{s,t}$ or a…

Given a pair of graphs $G$ and $H$, the Ramsey number $R(G,H)$ is the smallest $N$ such that every red-blue coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_N$ contains a red copy of $G$ or a blue copy of $H$. If graph $G$ is connected, it is…

For a graph $H$ and an integer $k\ge1$, the $k$-color Ramsey number $R_k(H)$ is the least integer $N$ such that every $k$-coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_N$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. Let $C_m$ denote the cycle on…

We prove that, for $n\geq 4$, the graphs $K_n$ and $K_n+K_{n-1}$ are Ramsey equivalent. That is, if $G$ is such that any red-blue colouring of its edges creates a monochromatic $K_n$ then it must also possess a monochromatic $K_n+K_{n-1}$.

Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, the {Ramsey number} $R(G,H)$ is the smallest positive integer $N$ such that every 2-coloring of the edges of $K_{N}$ contains either a red $G$ or a blue $H$. Let $K_{N-1}\sqcup K_{1,k}$ be the graph obtained…

A coloring of a complete bipartite graph is shuffle-preserved if it is the case that assigning a color $c$ to edges $(u, v)$ and $(u', v')$ enforces the same color assignment for edges $(u, v')$ and $(u',v)$. (In words, the induced subgraph…

The grid Ramsey number $ G(r) $ is the smallest number $ n $ such that every edge-colouring of the grid graph $\Gamma_{n,n} := K_n \times K_n$ with $r$ colours induces a rectangle whose parallel edges receive the same colour. We show $ G(r)…

We study a generalisation of the bipartite Ramsey numbers to blowups of graphs. For a graph $G$, denote the $t$-blowup of $G$ by $G[t]$. We say that $G$ is $r$-Ramsey for $H$, and write $G \stackrel{r}{\rightarrow} H$, if every…

Given graphs $G, H$ and an integer $q \ge 2$, the generalized Ramsey number, denoted $r(G,H,q)$, is the minimum number of colours needed to edge-colour $G$ such that every copy of $H$ receives at least $q$ colours. In this paper, we prove…

In this note, we investigate for various pairs of graphs $(H,G)$ the question of how many random edges must be added to a dense graph to guarantee that any red-blue coloring of the edges contains a red copy of $H$ or a blue copy of $G$. We…

For a graph $G$ and a not necessarily proper $k$-edge coloring $c:E(G)\to \{ 1,\ldots,k\}$, let $m_i(G)$ be the number of edges of $G$ of color $i$, and call $G$ {\it color-balanced} if $m_i(G)=m_j(G)$ for every two colors $i$ and $j$.…
