We introduce a new two-player game on graphs, in which players alternate choosing vertices until the set of chosen vertices forms a dominating set. The last player to choose a vertex is the winner. The game fits into the scheme of several…

Consider the following random process: The vertices of a binomial random graph $G_{n,p}$ are revealed one by one, and at each step only the edges induced by the already revealed vertices are visible. Our goal is to assign to each vertex one…

A graph $G$ is Ramsey for a graph $H$ if every colouring of the edges of $G$ in two colours contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. Two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$ are Ramsey equivalent if any graph $G$ is Ramsey for $H_1$ if and only if it is…

We study the following combinatorial game played by two players, Alice and Bob, which generalizes the Pizza game considered by Brown, Winkler and others. Given a connected graph G with nonnegative weights assigned to its vertices, the…

Consider the following two-player game on the edges of $K_n$, the complete graph with $n$ vertices: Starting with an empty graph $G$ on the vertex set of $K_n$, in each round the first player chooses $b \in \mathbb{N}$ edges from $K_n$…

Let $p,q$ be two integers with $p\geq q$. Given a finite graph $F$ with no isolated vertices, the generalized Ramsey achievement game of $F$ on the complete graph $K_n$, denoted by $(p,q;K_n,F,+)$, is played by two players called Alice and…

For given graphs $G_{1}, G_{2}, ... , G_{k}, k \geq 2$, the multicolor Ramsey number $R(G_{1}, G_{2}, ... , G_{k})$ is the smallest integer $n$ such that if we arbitrarily color the edges of the complete graph of order $n$ with $k$ colors,…

Often regarded as the study of how order emerges from randomness, Ramsey theory has played an important role in mathematics and computer science, giving rise to applications in numerous domains such as logic, parallel processing, and number…

In a Take-Away Game on hypergraphs, two players take turns to remove the vertices and the hyperedges of the hypergraphs. In each turn, a player must remove either a single vertex or a hyperedge. When a player chooses to remove one vertex,…

We propose a new coloring game on a graph, called the independence coloring game, which is played by two players with opposite goals. The result of the game is a proper coloring of vertices of a graph $G$, and Alice's goal is that as few…

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…

Consider a two-player game between players Builder and Painter. Painter begins the game by picking a coloring of the edges of $K_n$, which is hidden from Builder. In each round, Builder points to an edge and Painter reveals its color.…

The \emph{graph grabbing game} is a two-player game on a weighted connected graph in which two players, Alice and Bob, alternatively remove non-cut vertices one by one to gain the weights on them. Alice wins the game if she gains at least…

In this paper we consider a game played on the edge set of the infinite clique $K_\mathbb{N}$ by two players, Builder and Painter. In each round of the game, Builder chooses an edge and Painter colors it red or blue. Builder wins when…

A graph $G$ is Ramsey for a graph $H$ if every 2-colouring of the edges of $G$ contains a monochromatic copy of $H$. We consider the following question: if $H$ has bounded treewidth, is there a `sparse' graph $G$ that is Ramsey for $H$? Two…

Much recent progress in hypergraph Ramsey theory has focused on constructions that lead to lower bounds for the corresponding Ramsey numbers. In this paper, we consider applications of these results to Gallai colorings. That is, we focus on…

In this work, we investigate various combinatorial properties of Borel ideals on countable sets. We extend a theorem presented in M. Hru\v{s}\'{a}k, D. Meza-Alc\'antara, E. Th\"ummel, and C. Uzc\'ategui, \emph{Ramsey Type Properties of…

A path in an edge colored graph is said to be a rainbow path if no two edges on the path have the same color. An edge colored graph is (strongly) rainbow connected if there exists a (geodesic) rainbow path between every pair of vertices.…

For graphs $F$ and $G$, let $F\to G$ signify that any red/blue edge coloring of $F$ contains a monochromatic $G$. Denote by ${\cal G}(N,p)$ the random graph space of order $N$ and edge probability $p$. Using the regularity method, one can…

The connected domination game is played just as the domination game, with an additional requirement that at each stage of the game the vertices played induce a connected subgraph. The number of moves in a D-game (an S-game, resp.) on a…
