The induced $q$-color size-Ramsey number $\hat{r}_{\text{ind}}(H;q)$ of a graph $H$ is the minimal number of edges a host graph $G$ can have so that every $q$-edge-coloring of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$ which is an induced…

Using the theory of negative association for measures and the notion of random weak limits of sparse graphs, we establish the validity of the cavity method for counting spanning subgraphs subject to local constraints in asymptotically…

Given a vertex-ordered graph $G$, the ordered Ramsey number $r_<(G)$ is the minimum integer $N$ such that every $2$-coloring of the edges of the complete ordered graph $K_N$ contains a monochromatic ordered copy of $G$. Motivated by a…

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…

We define the $r\textit{-Kneser Ramsey number}$ $R^{\textrm{KG}}_{r}(s, t)$ as the minimum integer $n$ such that every red/blue edge-coloring of the Kneser graph $\textrm{KG}(n,r)$ contains a red $s$-clique or a blue $t$-clique. We obtain…

We say that a graph $F$ strongly arrows a pair of graphs $(G,H)$ if any 2-colouring of its edges with red and blue leads to either a red $G$ or a blue $H$ appearing as induced subgraphs of $F$. The induced Ramsey number, $IR(G,H)$ is…

We present a refinement of Ramsey numbers by considering graphs with a partial ordering on their vertices. This is a natural extension of the ordered Ramsey numbers. We formalize situations in which we can use arbitrary families of…

In this paper the focus is on subsampling as well as reconstructing the second-order statistics of signals residing on nodes of arbitrary undirected graphs. Second-order stationary graph signals may be obtained by graph filtering zero-mean…

We develop a reinforcement learning pipeline for simplifying knot diagrams. A trained agent learns move proposals and a value heuristic for navigating Reidemeister moves. The pipeline applies to arbitrary knots and links; we test it on…

We describe a simple and yet surprisingly powerful probabilistic technique which shows how to find in a dense graph a large subset of vertices in which all (or almost all) small subsets have many common neighbors. Recently this technique…

In this paper, we investigate three extensions of Ramsey numbers to other combinatorial settings. We first consider ordered Ramsey numbers. Here, we ask for a monochromatic copy of a linearly ordered graph $G$ in every $2$-edge-coloring of…

In this short note, we provide a new infinite family of $K_{2, t+1}$-free graphs for each prime power $t$. Using these graphs, we show that it is possible to partition the edges of $K_n$ into parts, such that each part is isomorphic to our…

The Ramsey number $\mathrm{R}(G_1,G_2)$ is the smallest integer $N$ such that any red-blue coloring of the edges of the complete graph $K_N$ contains either a red copy of $G_1$ or a blue copy of $G_2$. In 2022, the third author and others…
