We show that if $N \geq \exp(\exp(\exp (k^{O(1)})))$, then any $k$-colouring of the primes that are less than $N$ contains a monochromatic solution to $p_1 - p_2 = p_3 -1$.
We classify the trees on $n$ vertices with the maximum and the minimum number of certain generalized colorings, including conflict-free, odd, non-monochromatic, star, and star rainbow vertex colorings. We also extend a result of Cutler and…
An edge-colored graph $G$ is rainbow connected if any two vertices are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colors. The rainbow connection number of a connected graph $G$, denoted by $rc(G)$, is the smallest number of colors that…
We study the strength of $\RRT^3_2$, Rainbow Ramsey Theorem for colorings of triples, and prove that $\RCA + \RRT^3_2$ implies neither $\WKL$ nor $\RRT^4_2$. To this end, we establish some recursion theoretic properties of cohesive sets and…
We prove that every properly edge-colored $n$-vertex graph with average degree at least $100(\log n)^2$ contains a rainbow cycle, improving upon $(\log n)^{2+o(1)}$ bound due to Tomon. We also prove that every properly colored $n$-vertex…
A subgraph of an edge-colored graph is called \emph{rainbow} if all of its edges have distinct colors. There has been much research on the topic of finding a large rainbow matching in a properly edge-colored graph, where a proper…
A conjecture of the first two authors is that $n$ matchings of size $n$ in any graph have a rainbow matching of size $n-1$. We prove a lower bound of $\frac{2}{3}n-1$, improving on the trivial $\frac{1}{2}n$, and an analogous result for…
We give an alternative proof of the striking new Tverberg type theorem of Blagojevic and Ziegler, arXiv:0910.4987v1 [math.CO]. Our method also yields some new cases of "constrained Tverberg thereom" in the sense of Hell, including a simple…
We compare the strength of polychromatic and monochromatic Ramsey theory in several set-theoretic domains. We show that the rainbow Ramsey theorem does not follow from ZF, nor does the rainbow Ramsey theorem imply Ramsey's theorem over ZF.…
One of the most fundamental results in graph theory is Mantel's theorem which determines the maximum number of edges in a triangle-free graph of order $n$. Recently a colorful variant of this problem has been solved. In such a variant we…
Vinogradov's three primes theorem indicates that, for every sufficiently large odd integer $N$, the equation $N=p_1+p_2+p_3$ is solvable in prime variables $p_1,p_2,p_3$. In this paper, it is proved that Vinogradov's three primes theorem…
For every even positive integer $k\ge 4$ let $f(n,k)$ denote the minimim number of colors required to color the edges of the $n$-dimensional cube $Q_n$, so that the edges of every copy of $k$-cycle $C_k$ receive $k$ distinct colors.…
n 1937 Ivan Vinogradov proved the three prime sum version of the Goldbach Conjecture, often called the weak form of Goldbach Conjecture. And that it holds for "sufficiently large" odd natural numbers. In this work we use Dirichlet Theorem,…
We prove that every proper edge-coloring of the $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ contains a rainbow copy of every tree $T$ on at most $n$ edges. This result is best possible, as $Q_n$ can be properly edge-colored using only $n$ colors while…
Aharoni and Berger conjectured that every bipartite graph which is the union of n matchings of size n + 1 contains a rainbow matching of size n. This conjecture is a generalization of several old conjectures of Ryser, Brualdi, and Stein…
In 2019, Aharoni proposed a conjecture generalizing the Caceetta-H\"aggkvist conjecture: if an $n$-vertex graph $G$ admits an edge coloring (not necessarily proper) with $n$ colors such that each color class has size at least $r$, then $G$…
The Cyclic Coloring Conjecture asserts that the vertices of every plane graph with maximum face size D can be colored using at most 3D/2 colors in such a way that no face is incident with two vertices of the same color. The Cyclic Coloring…
We prove a Tverberg type theorem: Given a set $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in general position with $|A|=(r-1)(d+1)+1$ and $k\in \{0,1,\ldots,r-1\}$, there is a partition of $A$ into $r$ sets $A_1,\ldots,A_r$ with the following property. The…
Drisko proved that $2n-1$ matchings of size $n$ in a bipartite graph have a rainbow matching of size $n$. For general graphs it is conjectured that $2n$ matchings suffice for this purpose (and that $2n-1$ matchings suffice when $n$ is…
Given a graph $G$ and a coloring of its edges, a subgraph of $G$ is called rainbow if its edges have distinct colors. The rainbow girth of an edge coloring of G is the minimum length of a rainbow cycle in G. A generalization of the famous…
