We use the combinatorial properties of central sets to prove a result about the existence of exponential monochromatic patterns, in the style of Hindman's Finite Sums Theorem. More precisely, we prove that for every finite coloring of the…
A system of linear equations in $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ is \textit{Sidorenko} if any subset of $\mathbb{F}_p^n$ contains at least as many solutions to the system as a random set of the same density, asymptotically as $n\to \infty$. A system of…
Given a matroid together with a coloring of its ground set, a subset of its elements is called rainbow colored if no two of its elements have the same color. We show that if a binary matroid of rank $r$ is colored with exactly $r$ colors,…
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…
Ryser conjectured that every $r$-edge-coloured complete graph can be covered by $r-1$ monochromatic trees. Motivated by a question of Austin in analysis, Mili\'cevi\'c predicted something stronger -- that every $r$-edge-coloured complete…
Various results ensure the existence of large complete bipartite graphs in properly colored graphs when some condition related to a topological lower bound on the chromatic number is satisfied. We generalize three theorems of this kind,…
Given an edge colouring of a graph with a set of $m$ colours, we say that the graph is (exactly) $m$-coloured if each of the colours is used. We consider edge colourings of the complete graph on $\mathbb{N}$ with infinitely many colours and…
An equitable coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper vertex coloring of $G$ such that the sizes of any two color classes differ by at most one. In the paper, we pose a conjecture that offers a gap-one bound for the smallest number of colors…
The concept of monochromatic connectivity was introduced by Caro and Yuster. A path in an edge-colored graph is called a \emph{monochromatic path} if all the edges on the path are colored the same. An edge-coloring of $G$ is a…
Let $S$ be a 2-colored (red and blue) set of $n$ points in the plane. A subset $I$ of $S$ is an island if there exits a convex set $C$ such that $I=C\cap S$. The discrepancy of an island is the absolute value of the number of red minus the…
An edge-coloring of a connected graph $G$ is called a {\it monochromatic connection coloring} (MC-coloring, for short), introduced by Caro and Yuster, if there is a monochromatic path joining any two vertices of the graph $G$. Let $mc(G)$…
Let $\{G_n: n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of simple graphs. Suppose $G_n$ has $m_n$ edges and each vertex of $G_n$ is colored independently and uniformly at random with $c_n$ colors. Recently, Bhattacharya, Diaconis and Mukherjee (2013) proved…
We prove that every set of $n$ red and $n$ blue points in the plane contains a red and a blue point such that every circle through them encloses at least $n(1-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}) -o(n)$ points of the set. This is a two-colored version of a…
Raimi's classical theorem establishes a partition of the natural numbers with a remarkable unavoidability property: for every finite coloring of $\mathbb{N}$, there is a color class whose translate meets both parts of the partition in…
This paper begins by exploring some old and new results about Ramsey numbers and minimum numbers of monochromatic triangles in $2$-colorings of complete graphs, both in the disjoint and non-disjoint cases. We then extend the theory, by…
We prove the existence of a function $f :\mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ such that the vertices of every planar graph with maximum degree $\Delta$ can be 3-colored in such a way that each monochromatic component has at most $f(\Delta)$ vertices.…
In a celebrated article, Moreira proved for every finite coloring of the set of naturals, there exists a monochromatic copy of the form $\{x,x+y,xy\},$ which gives a partial answer to one of the central open problems of Ramsey theory asking…
We show that there is a constant $c$ such that any colouring of the cube $[3]^n$ in $c \log \log n$ colours contains a monochromatic combinatorial line.
Conlon and Wu showed that there is a red/blue-coloring of $\mathbb{E}^n$ that does not contain $3$ red collinear points separated by unit distance and $m=10^{50}$ blue collinear points separated by unit distance. We prove that the statement…
Erd\H{o}s, Gy\'arf\'as, and Pyber (1991) conjectured that every $r$-colored complete graph can be partitioned into at most $r-1$ monochromatic components; this is a strengthening of a conjecture of Lov\'asz (1975) in which the components…
