Let $G$ be a connected graph on $n$ vertices and at most $n(1+\epsilon)$ edges with bounded maximum degree, and $F$ a graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $n-k$, where $\epsilon$ is a constant depending on $k$. In this paper,…

Recently, asymptotic values of 2-color Ramsey numbers for loose cycles and also loose paths were determined. Here we determine the 2-color Ramsey number of 3-uniform loose paths when one of the paths is significantly larger than the other:…

For a given graph $H$, the Ramsey number $r(H)$ is the minimum $N$ such that any 2-edge-coloring of the complete graph $K_N$ yields a monochromatic copy of $H$. Given a positive integer $n$, a \emph{fan }$F_n$ is a graph formed by $n$…

The weighted Ramsey number, ${\rm wR}(n,k)$, is the minimum $q$ such that there is an assignment of nonnegative real numbers (weights) to the edges of $K_n$ with the total sum of the weights equal to ${n\choose 2}$ and there is a Red/Blue…

In 1995 Kim famously proved the Ramsey bound R(3,t) \ge c t^2/\log t by constructing an n-vertex graph that is triangle-free and has independence number at most C \sqrt{n \log n}. We extend this celebrated result, which is best possible up…

Let $s$ be an integer, $f=f(n)$ a function, and $H$ a graph. Define the Ramsey-Tur\'an number $RT_s(n,H, f)$ as the maximum number of edges in an $H$-free graph $G$ of order $n$ with $\alpha_s(G) < f$, where $\alpha_s(G)$ is the maximum…
