The size-Ramsey number $\hat{r}(H)$ of a graph $H$ is the smallest number of edges a (host) graph $G$ can have, such that for any red/blue colouring of $G$, there is a monochromatic copy of $H$ in $G$. Recently, Conlon, Nenadov and Truji\'c…
The Ramsey number $R(G_1,\dots,G_k)$ is the smallest $n$ such that every $k$-coloring of the edges of $K_n$ contains a monochromatic copy of $G_i$ in color $i$. Ramsey numbers are challenging to compute, and few are known exactly. We use…
Let $G_1, G_2, ..., G_t$ be graphs. The multicolor Ramsey number $R(G_1, G_2, ..., G_t)$ is the smallest positive integer $n$ such that if the edges of complete graph $K_n$ are partitioned into $t$ disjoint color classes giving $t$ graphs…
Given a positive integer $k$ and graph $G$, the $\mathbb{Z}_k$-Ramsey number $R(G,\mathbb{Z}_k)$ is the least $N$ (if it exists) such that every coloring $f:E(K_N)\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_k$ contains a copy $G'$ of $G$ such that $\sum_{e\in…
For ordered graphs $G$ and $H$, the ordered Ramsey number $r_<(G,H)$ is the smallest $n$ such that every red/blue edge coloring of the complete graph on vertices $\{1,\dots,n\}$ contains either a blue copy of $G$ or a red copy of $H$, where…
We will prove that $R_k(k+1,k+1)\geq 4 tw_{\lfloor k/4\rfloor -3}(2)$, where $tw$ is the tower function defined by ${tw}_1(x)=x$ and ${tw}_{i+1}(x)=2^{{tw}_i(x)}$. We also give proofs of $R_k(k+1,k+2)\geq 4 tw_{k-7}(2)$, $R_k(k+1,2k+1)\geq…
Given a hypergraph $G$ and a subhypergraph $H$ of $G$, the \emph{odd Ramsey number} $r_{odd}(G,H)$ is the minimum number of colors needed to edge-color $G$ so that every copy of $H$ intersects some color class in an odd number of edges.…
As a significant variation of Ramsey numbers, the Gallai-Ramsey number $GR_k(H)$ refers to the smallest positive integer $r$ such that, by coloring the edges of $K_r$ with at most $k$ colors, there exists either a monochromatic subgraph…
We prove that every 3-coloring of the edges of the complete graph on n vertices without a rainbow triangle contains a set of order Omega(n^{1/3}log^2 n) which uses at most two colors, and this bound is tight up to a constant factor. This…
For graphs $G^<$ and $H^<$ with linearly ordered vertex sets, the \ordered Ramsey number $r_<(G^<,H^<)$ is the smallest positive integer $N$ such that any red-blue coloring of the edges of the complete ordered graph $K^<_N$ on $N$ vertices…
Let $R_h(k; \ell)$ be the smallest integer $n$ such that any edge coloring of a complete graph on $n$ vertices in $\ell$ colors results in a monochromatic $K_k$-minor, in other words, a graph with Hadwiger number $k$, i.e., a graph that…
For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ is called a Berge-$G$, denoted by $BG$, if there exists a bijection $f: E(G) \to E(\mathcal{H})$ such that for every $e \in E(G)$, $e \subseteq f(e)$. Let the Ramsey number $R^r(BG,BG)$ be…
Using computational techniques we derive six new upper bounds on the classical two-color Ramsey numbers: R(3,10) <= 42, R(3,11) <= 50, R(3,13) <= 68, R(3,14) <= 77, R(3,15) <= 87, and R(3,16) <= 98. All of them are improvements by one over…
For two given graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$, the Ramsey number $R(G_1,G_2)$ is the least integer $r$ such that for every graph $G$ on $r$ vertices, either $G$ contains a $G_1$ or $\bar{G}$ contains a $G_2$. In this note, we determined the Ramsey…
In this paper we study the distance Ramsey number $R_{{\it D}}(s,t,d)$. The \textit{distance Ramsey number} $R_{{\it D}}(s,t,d) $ is the minimum number $n$ such that for any graph $ G $ on $ n $ vertices, either $G$ contains an induced $ s…
Let $R(H_1,H_2)$ denote the Ramsey number for the graphs $H_1, H_2$, and let $J_k$ be $K_k{-}e$. We present algorithms which enumerate all circulant and block-circulant Ramsey graphs for different types of graphs, thereby obtaining several…
An ordered graph is a graph whose vertex set is equipped with a total order. The ordered complete graph $K_N^<$ is the complete graph with vertex set $[N]$ equipped with the natural ordering of the integers. Given an ordered graph $H$, the…
Given two graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$, the Ramsey number $r(G_1,G_2)$ refers to the smallest positive integer $N$ such that any graph $G$ with $N$ vertices contains $G_1$ as a subgraph, or the complement of $G$ contains $G_2$ as a subgraph. A…
