Given positive integers $n$ and $k$, the book graph $B_n^{(k)}$ consists of $n$ copies of $K_{k+1}$ sharing a common $K_k$. The book graph is a common generalization of a star and a clique, which can be seen by taking $k=1$ and $n=1$…

The 8 unknown values of the Ramsey numbers $R(C_4,K_{1,n})$ for $n \leq 37$ are determined, showing that $R(C_4,K_{1,27}) = 33$ and $R(C_4,K_{1,n}) = n + 7$ for $28 \leq n \leq 33$ or $n = 37$. Additionally, the following results are…

We obtain some new upper bounds on the Ramsey numbers of the form $R(\underbrace{C_4,\ldots,C_4}_m,G_1,\ldots,G_n)$, where $m\ge 1$ and $G_1,\ldots,G_n$ are arbitrary graphs. We focus on the cases of $G_i$'s being complete, star $K_{1,k}$…

A book $B_n$ is a graph which consists of $n$ triangles sharing a common edge. In 1978, Rousseau and Sheehan conjectured that the Ramsey number satisfies $r(B_m,B_n)\le 2(m+n)+c$ for some constant $c>0$. In this paper, we obtain that…

The $p$-partite Ramsey number for quadrilateral, denoted by $r_p(C_4,k)$, is the least positive integer $n$ such that any coloring of the edges of a complete $p$-partite graph with $n$ vertices in each partition with $k$ colors will result…

We prove new bounds for Ramsey numbers for book graphs $B_n$. In particular, we show that $R(B_{n-1},B_n) = 4n-1$ for an infinite family of $n$ using a block-circulant construction similar to Paley graphs. We obtain improved bounds for…

Let $B_n^{(k)}$ be the book graph which consists of $n$ copies of $K_{k+1}$ all sharing a common $K_k$, and let $C_m$ be a cycle of length $m$. In this paper, we first determine the exact value of $r(B_n^{(2)}, C_m)$ for…

The \emph{book graph} of order $(n+2)$, denoted by $B_{n}$, is the graph with $n$ distinct copies of triangles sharing a common edge called the `base'. A cycle of order $m$ is denoted by $C_{m}$. A lot of studies have been done in recent…

A book of size N is the union of N triangles sharing a common edge. We show that the Ramsey number of a book of size N vs. a book of size M equals 2N+3 for all N>(10^6)M. Our proof is based on counting.

Set multipartite Ramsey numbers were introduced in 2004, ge-neralizing the celebrated Ramsey numbers. Let $C_4$ denote the four cycle and let $K_{1,n}$ denote the star on $n+1$ vertices. In this paper we investigate bounds on $C_4-K_{1,n}$…

The Ramsey number for the pair of graphs $\mathbb{K}_{1,n}$ (star) versus $W_{m}$ (wheel) has been extensively studied. In contrast, the Ramsey number of $\mathbb{K}_{2,n}$ versus the wheel is not yet explored due to the bit more structural…
