Answering a conjecture of A. Sisto, J. Sahasrabudhe proved the exponential version of the Schur theorem: for every finite coloring of the naturals, there exists a monochromatic copy of $\{x,y,x^y:x\neq y\},$ which initiates the study of…

In Euclidean Ramsey Theory usually we are looking for monochromatic configurations in the Euclidean space, whose points are colored with a fixed number of colors. In the canonical version, the number of colors is arbitrary, and we are…

Raimi's theorem guarantees the existence of a partition of $\mathbb{N}$ into two parts with an unavoidable intersection property: for any finite coloring of $\mathbb{N}$, some color class intersects both parts infinitely many times, after…

Let $k,a\in \mathbb{N}$ and let $p_1,\cdots,p_k\in \mathbb{Q}[n]$ with zero constant term. We show that for any finite coloring of $\mathbb{Q}$, there are non-zero $x,y\in \mathbb{Q}$ such that there exists a color which contains a set of…

A factorisation $x = u_1 u_2 \cdots$ of an infinite word $x$ on alphabet $X$ is called `monochromatic', for a given colouring of the finite words $X^*$ on alphabet $X$, if each $u_i$ is the same colour. Wojcik and Zamboni proved that the…

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…

In 1967, Gerencs\'er and Gy\'arf\'as proved a result which is considered the starting point of graph-Ramsey theory: In every 2-coloring of $K_n$ there is a monochromatic path on $\lceil(2n+1)/3\rceil$ vertices, and this is best possible.…

We show that various analogs of Hindman's Theorem fail in a strong sense when one attempts to obtain uncountable monochromatic sets: Theorem 1: There exists a colouring $c:\mathbb R\rightarrow\mathbb Q$, such that for every…

Given a fixed integer $n$, we prove Ramsey-type theorems for the classes of all finite ordered $n$-colorable graphs, finite $n$-colorable graphs, finite ordered $n$-chromatic graphs, and finite $n$-chromatic graphs.

We show in this note that in the forcing extension by $Add(\omega,\beth_{\omega})$, the following Ramsey property holds: for any $r\in \omega$ and any $f: \mathbb{R}\to r$, there exists an infinite $X\subset \mathbb{R}$ such that $X+X$ is…

In this note we study graphs $G_r$ with the property that every colouring of $E(G_r)$ with $r+1$ colours admits a copy of some graph $H$ using at most $r$ colours. For $1\le r\le e(H)$ such graphs occur naturally at intermediate steps in…

A finite set $X$ in a Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called Ramsey if for every $k$ there exists an integer $n$ such that whenever $\mathbb{R}^n$ is coloured with $k$ colours, there is a monochromatic copy of $X$. Graham conjectured that…

We prove that for any coloring of the naturals using two colors there are monochromatic sets of the form $\{x,y,xy,x+iy:i\leq k\}$ and $\{x,y,x^y,xy^i:i\leq k\}$ for any $k$.

Given an edge colouring of a graph with a set of $m$ colours, we say that the graph is (exactly) $m$-coloured if each of the colours is used. We consider edge colourings of the complete graph on $\mathbb{N}$ with infinitely many colours and…

P. Kirchberger proved that, for a finite subset $X$ of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ such that each point in $X$ is painted with one of two colors, if every $d+2$ or fewer points in $X$ can be separated along the colors, then all the points in $X$ can…

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…

A standard proof of Schur's Theorem yields that any $r$-coloring of $\{1,2,\dots,R_r-1\}$ yields a monochromatic solution to $x+y=z$, where $R_r$ is the classical $r$-color Ramsey number, the minimum $N$ such that any $r$-coloring of a…
