A tree $T$, in an edge-colored graph $G$, is called {\em a rainbow tree} if no two edges of $T$ are assigned the same color. A {\em $k$-rainbow coloring}of $G$ is an edge coloring of $G$ having the property that for every set $S$ of $k$…

Let $H_1$ and $H_2$ be graphs. A graph $G$ has the constrained Ramsey property for $(H_1,H_2)$ if every edge-colouring of $G$ contains either a monochromatic copy of $H_1$ or a rainbow copy of $H_2$. Our main result gives a 0-statement for…

A path in a total-colored graph is called \emph{total rainbow} if its edges and internal vertices have distinct colors. For an $\ell$-connected graph $G$ and an integer $k$ with $1\leq k \leq\ell$, the \emph{total rainbow $k$-connection…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is called a Berge-$G$, denoted by $BG$, if there exists a bijection $f: E(G) \to E(\mathcal{H})$ such that for every $e \in E(G)$, $e \subseteq f(e)$. Let the Ramsey number $R^r(BG,BG)$ be…
