A subset $S$ of a group $(G,+)$ is $t$-weakly sequenceable if there is an ordering $(y_1, \ldots, y_k)$ of its elements such that the partial sums~$s_0, s_1, \ldots, s_k$, given by $s_0 = 0$ and $s_i = \sum_{j=1}^i y_j$ for $1 \leq i \leq…

Let $G$ be a complete multi-partite graph of order $n$. In this paper, we consider the anti-Ramsey number $ar(G,\mathcal{T}_{q})$ with respect to $G$ and the set $\mathcal{T}_{q}$ of trees with $q$ edges, where $2\le q\le n-1$. For the case…

We consider extremal edge-coloring problems inspired by the theory of anti-Ramsey / rainbow coloring, and further by odd-colorings and conflict-free colorings. Let $G$ be a graph, and $F$ any given family of graphs. For every integer $n…

For two graphs $G^<$ and $H^<$ with linearly ordered vertex sets, the ordered Ramsey number $r_<(G^<,H^<)$ is the minimum $N$ such that every red-blue coloring of the edges of the ordered complete graph on $N$ vertices contains a red copy…

The thin set theorem for $n$-tuples and $k$ colors ($\mathsf{TS}^n_k$) states that every $k$-coloring of $[\mathbb{N}]^n$ admits an infinite set of integers $H$ such that $[H]^n$ avoids at least one color. In this paper, we study the…

Ramsey's theorem for $n$-tuples and $k$-colors ($\mathsf{RT}^n_k$) asserts that every k-coloring of $[\mathbb{N}]^n$ admits an infinite monochromatic subset. We study the proof-theoretic strength of Ramsey's theorem for pairs and two…

An edge-colored hypergraph is rainbow if all of its edges have different colors. Given two hypergraphs $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{G}$, the anti-Ramsey number $ar(\mathcal{G}, \mathcal{H})$ of $\mathcal{H}$ in $\mathcal{G}$ is the maximum…

In this paper, we construct explicit families of polynomials $P \in \mathbb{F}_q[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ with large root sets which have restricted intersections with affine lines. We use these sets to make substantial progress on a number of…

The generalized Ramsey number $f(n, p, q)$ is the smallest number of colors needed to color the edges of the complete graph $K_n$ so that every $p$-clique spans at least $q$ colors. Erd\H{o}s and Gy\'arf\'as showed that $f(n, p, q)$ grows…

We say that a graph $G$ is anti-Ramsey for a graph $H$ if any proper edge-colouring of $G$ yields a rainbow copy of $H$, i.e. a copy of $H$ whose edges all receive different colours. In this work we determine the threshold at which the…

The maximum size, $La(n,P)$, of a family of subsets of $[n]=\{1,2,...,n\}$ without containing a copy of $P$ as a subposet, has been intensively studied. Let $P$ be a graded poset. We say that a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of…

For $E \subset \mathbb{N}$, a subset $R \subset \mathbb{N}$ is $E$-intersective if for every $A \subset E$ having positive upper relative density, we have $R \cap (A - A) \neq \varnothing$. On the other hand, $R$ is chromatically…

We asymptotically determine the size of the largest family F of subsets of {1,...,n} not containing a given poset P if the Hasse diagram of P is a tree. This is a qualitative generalization of several known results including Sperner's…

For graphs $G$ and $H$, we write $G \overset{\mathrm{rb}}{\longrightarrow} H $ if any proper edge-coloring of $G$ contains a rainbow copy of $H$, i.e., a copy where no color appears more than once. Kohayakawa, Konstadinidis and the last…

Let $f(n,r)$ denote the maximum number of colourings of $A \subseteq \lbrace 1,\ldots,n\rbrace$ with $r$ colours such that each colour class is sum-free. Here, a sum is a subset $\lbrace x,y,z\rbrace$ such that $x+y=z$. We show that $f(n,2)…

A poset $(P',\le_{P'})$ contains a copy of some other poset $(P,\le_P)$ if there is an injection $f\colon P'\to P$ where for every $X,Y\in P$, $X\le_P Y$ if and only if $f(X)\le_{P'} f(Y)$. For any posets $P$ and $Q$, the poset Ramsey…

The anti-Ramsey number, $ar(G, H)$ is the minimum integer $k$ such that in any edge colouring of $G$ with $k$ colours there is a rainbow subgraph isomorphic to $H$, i.e., a copy of $H$ with each of its edges assigned a different colour. The…

An edge-colored hypergraph is called \emph{a rainbow hypergraph} if all the colors on its edges are distinct. Given two positive integers $n,r$ and an $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{G}$, the anti-Ramsey number $ar_r(n,\mathcal{G})$ is…
