The $r$-colour Ramsey number $R_r(k)$ is the minimum $n \in \mathbb{N}$ such that every $r$-colouring of the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ on $n$ vertices contains a monochromatic copy of $K_k$. We prove, for each fixed $r \geqslant 2$,…

The Euclidean Gallai-Ramsey problem, which investigates the existence of monochromatic or rainbow configurations in a colored $n$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{n}$, was introduced and studied recently. We further explore this…

A colouring of a graph is "nonrepetitive" if for every path of even order, the sequence of colours on the first half of the path is different from the sequence of colours on the second half. We show that planar graphs have nonrepetitive…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of convex sets in ${\mathbb R}^d$, which are colored with $d+1$ colors. We say that $\mathcal{F}$ satisfies the Colorful Helly Property if every rainbow selection of $d+1$ sets, one set from each color class,…

We prove that $\RCA + \RRT^3_2 \not\vdash \ACA$ where $\RRT^3_2$ is the Rainbow Ramsey Theorem for 2-bounded colorings of triples. This reverse mathematical result is based on a cone avoidance theorem, that every 2-bounded coloring of pairs…

We develop a transfer principle of structural Ramsey theory from finite structures to ultraproducts. We show that under certain mild conditions, when a class of finite structures has finite small Ramsey degrees, under the (Generalized)…

A formal proof has not been found for the four color theorem since 1852 when Francis Guthrie first conjectured the four color theorem. Why? A bad idea, we think, directed people to a rough road. Using a similar method to that for the formal…

A strong edge-coloring $\varphi$ of a graph $G$ assigns colors to edges of $G$ such that $\varphi(e_1)\ne \varphi(e_2)$ whenever $e_1$ and $e_2$ are at distance no more than 1. It is equivalent to a proper vertex coloring of the square of…

We give a short survey of problems and results on (1) diameter graphs and hypergraphs, and (2) geometric Ramsey theory. We also make some modest contributions to both areas. Extending a well known theorem of Kahn and Kalai which disproved…

We give a new proof of a partition theorem popularly known as Elder's theorem, but which is also credited to Stanley and Fine. We extend the theorem to the context of colored partitions (or prefabs). More specifically, we give analogous…

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…

A finite set $X$ in some Euclidean space $R^n$ is called Ramsey if for any $k$ there is a $d$ such that whenever $R^d$ is $k$-coloured it contains a monochromatic set congruent to $X$. This notion was introduced by Erdos, Graham,…

Let $K\_{[k,t]}$ be the complete graph on $k$ vertices from which a set of edges, induced by a clique of order $t$, has been dropped. In this note we give two explicit upper bounds for $R(K\_{[k\_1,t\_1]},\dots, K\_{[k\_r,t\_r]})$ (the…

We analyze the Dual Ramsey Theorem for $k$ partitions and $\ell$ colors ($\mathsf{DRT}^k_\ell$) in the context of reverse math, effective analysis, and strong reductions. Over $\mathsf{RCA}_0$, the Dual Ramsey Theorem stated for Baire…

The topological Tverberg theorem has been generalized in several directions by setting extra restrictions on the Tverberg partitions. Restricted Tverberg partitions, defined by the idea that certain points cannot be in the same part, are…

In this paper we consider the following question in the spirit of Ramsey theory: Given $x\in A^\omega,$ where $A$ is a finite non-empty set, does there exist a finite coloring of the non-empty factors of $x$ with the property that no…

Consider an arbitrary coloring of integers with finite number of colors. Is it true that there are x, y such that x + y, xy and x have the same color? This is a well-known question of Ramsey theory has not solved yet. In the article we give…

For $n\geq s> r\geq 1$ and $k\geq 2$, write $n \rightarrow (s)_{k}^r$ if every hyperedge colouring with $k$ colours of the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices has a monochromatic subset of size $s$. Improving upon previous…

We prove a generalized Ramsey-type result on large 2-coloured matchings in a 3-coloured complete 3-uniform hypergraph, supporting a conjecture by A. Gy\'arf\'as.

We introduce several new set-theoretic axioms formulated in terms of coloring of ordinals by reals. We show that these axioms generalize the axioms considered by I.Juhasz, L.Soukup and Z.Szentmiklossy, and give a class of p.o.s including…
