A celebrated result of R\"odl and Ruci\'nski states that for every graph $F$, which is not a forest of stars and paths of length $3$, and fixed number of colours $r\ge 2$ there exist positive constants $c, C$ such that for $p \leq…
A graph $G$ is Ramsey for a graph $H$ if every 2-colouring of the edges of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. We consider the following question: if $H$ has bounded treewidth, is there a `sparse' graph $G$ that is Ramsey for $H$? Two…
The Ramsey multiplicity problem asks for the minimum asymptotic density of monochromatic labelled copies of a graph $H$ in a red/blue colouring of the edges of $K_n$. We introduce an off-diagonal generalization in which the goal is to…
We show that, for $n$ large, there must exist at least \[\frac{n^t}{C^{(1+o(1))t^2}}\] monochromatic $K_t$s in any two-colouring of the edges of $K_n$, where $C \approx 2.18$ is an explicitly defined constant. The old lower bound, due to…
We determine the asymptotic behavior of the maximum subgraph density of large random graphs with a prescribed degree sequence. The result applies in particular to the Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi model, where it settles a conjecture of Hajek [IEEE…
We consider the problem of determining the maximum induced density of a graph H in any graph on n vertices. The limit of this density as n tends to infinity is called the inducibility of H. The exact value of this quantity is known only for…
The $s$-colour size-Ramsey number of a hypergraph $H$ is the minimum number of edges in a hypergraph $G$ whose every $s$-edge-colouring contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. We show that the $s$-colour size-Ramsey number of the $r$-uniform…
Analogues of Ramsey's Theorem for infinite structures such as the rationals or the Rado graph have been known for some time. In this context, one looks for optimal bounds, called degrees, for the number of colors in an isomorphic…
An infinite graph is highly connected if the complement of any subgraph of smaller size is connected. We consider weaker versions of Ramsey's Theorem asserting that in any coloring of the edges of a complete graph there exist large highly…
Answering a question raised by Dudek and Pra\l{}at, we show that if $pn\rightarrow \infty$, w.h.p.,~whenever $G=G(n,p)$ is $2$-coloured, there exists a monochromatic path of length $n(2/3+o(1))$. This result is optimal in the sense that…
We study two related problems concerning the number of homogeneous subsets of given size in graphs that go back to questions of Erd\H{o}s. Most notably, we improve the upper bounds on the Ramsey multiplicity of $K_4$ and $K_5$ and settle…
The Ramsey number $r(H)$ of a graph $H$ is the minimum $n$ such that any two-coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. The threshold Ramsey multiplicity $m(H)$ is then the minimum number of…
For graphs $G$ and $H$, let $G\to H$ signify that any red/blue edge coloring of $G$ contains a monochromatic $H$. Let $G(N,p)$ be the random graph of order $N$ and edge probability $p$. The Ramsey thresholds for fixed graphs have received…
Given two graphs $G$ and $H$, we investigate for which functions $p=p(n)$ the random graph $G_{n,p}$ (the binomial random graph on $n$ vertices with edge probability $p$) satisfies with probability $1-o(1)$ that every red-blue-coloring of…
The size-Ramsey number $\hat{R}(F)$ of a graph $F$ is the smallest integer $m$ such that there exists a graph $G$ on $m$ edges with the property that any colouring of the edges of $G$ with two colours yields a monochromatic copy of $F$. In…
For graphs $F$ and $G$, let $F\to G$ signify that any red/blue edge coloring of $F$ contains a monochromatic $G$. Denote by ${\cal G}(N,p)$ the random graph space of order $N$ and edge probability $p$. Using the regularity method, one can…
The size-Ramsey number $R^{(k)}(H)$ of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is the minimum number of edges in a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ with the property that every `$2$-edge coloring' of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. For $k\ge2$ and…
Ramsey's theorem, in the version of Erd\H{o}s and Szekeres, states that every 2-coloring of the edges of the complete graph on {1, 2,...,n} contains a monochromatic clique of order 1/2\log n. In this paper, we consider two well-studied…
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…
