Given an $r$-edge-colouring of the edges of a graph $G$, we say that it can be partitioned into $p$ monochromatic cycles when there exists a set of $p$ vertex-disjoint monochromatic cycles covering all the vertices of $G$. In the literature…
In Ramsey theory for graphs we are given a graph $G$ and we are required to find the least $n_0$ such that, for any $n\geq n_0$, any red/blue colouring of the edges of $K_n$ gives a subgraph $G$ all of whose edges are blue or all are red.…
In this paper, we first study a new extremal problem recently posed by Conlon and Tyomkyn~(arXiv: 2002.00921). Given a graph $H$ and an integer $k\geqslant 2$, let $f_{k}(n,H)$ be the smallest number of colors $c$ such that there exists a…
In this short note we prove that there is a constant $c$ such that every k-edge-coloring of the complete graph K_n with n > 2^{ck} contains a K_4 whose edges receive at most two colors. This improves on a result of Kostochka and Mubayi, and…
For two graphs, $G$, and $H$, an edge-coloring of a complete graph is $(G,H)$-good if there is no monochromatic subgraph isomorphic to $G$ and no rainbow subgraph isomorphic to $H$ in this coloring. The set of number of colors used by some…
In this paper we prove a new result about partitioning coloured complete graphs and use it to determine certain Ramsey numbers exactly. The partitioning theorem we prove is that for k at least 1, in every edge colouring of a complete graph…
A well-known result of R\"odl and Ruci\'nski states that for any graph $H$ there exists a constant $C$ such that if $p \geq C n^{- 1/m_2(H)}$, then the random graph $G_{n,p}$ is a.a.s. $H$-Ramsey, that is, any $2$-colouring of its edges…
For an integer $r\geq 2$ and bipartite graphs $H_i$, where $1\leq i\leq r$, the bipartite Ramsey number $br(H_1,H_2,\ldots,H_r)$ is the minimum integer $N$ such that any $r$-edge coloring of the complete bipartite graph $K_{N,N}$ contains a…
We investigate a number of coloring problems restricted to bipartite graphs with bounded diameter. First, we investigate the $k$-List Coloring, List $k$-Coloring, and $k$-Precoloring Extension problems on bipartite graphs with diameter at…
A proper edge coloring of a graph $G$ with colors $1,2,\dots,t$ is called a \emph{cyclic interval $t$-coloring} if for each vertex $v$ of $G$ the edges incident to $v$ are colored by consecutive colors, under the condition that color $1$ is…
A seminal result of Lee asserts that the Ramsey number of any bipartite $d$-degenerate graph $H$ satisfies $\log r(H) = \log n + O(d)$. In particular, this bound applies to every bipartite graph of maximal degree $\Delta$. It remains a…
For a graph $G$ and a not necessarily proper $k$-edge coloring $c:E(G)\to \{ 1,\ldots,k\}$, let $m_i(G)$ be the number of edges of $G$ of color $i$, and call $G$ {\it color-balanced} if $m_i(G)=m_j(G)$ for every two colors $i$ and $j$.…
Given two graphs H and G, the size multipartite Ramsey number mj (H, G) is the smallest natural number t such that an arbitrary coloring of the edges of Kjt, complete multipartite graph whose vertex set is partitioned into j parts each of…
Multipoles are the pieces we obtain by cutting some edges of a cubic graph. As a result of the cut, a multipole $M$ has dangling edges with one free end, which we call semiedges. Then, every 3-edge-coloring of a multipole induces a coloring…
We introduce the Multicolored Graph Realization problem (MGRP). The input to the problem is a colored graph $(G,\varphi)$, i.e., a graph together with a coloring on its vertices. We can associate to each colored graph a cluster graph…
A coloring of a connected graph $G$ is a function $f$ mapping the vertex set of $G$ into the set of all integers. For any subgraph $H$ of $G$, we denote the sum of the values of $f$ on the vertices of $H$ as $f(H)$. If for any integer $k\in…
Two vertex colorings of a graph are Kempe equivalent if they can be transformed into each other by a sequence of switchings of two colors of vertices. It is PSPACE-complete to determine whether two given vertex $k$-colorings of a graph are…
We study the problem of Minimum $k$-Critical Bipartite Graph of order $(n,m)$ - M$k$CBG-$(n,m)$: to find a bipartite $G=(U,V;E)$, with $|U|=n$, $|V|=m$, and $n>m>1$, which is $k$-critical bipartite, and the tuple $(|E|, \Delta_U,…
We prove that there is a constant $c >0$, such that whenever $p \ge n^{-c}$, with probability tending to 1 when $n$ goes to infinity, every maximum triangle-free subgraph of the random graph $G_{n,p}$ is bipartite. This answers a question…
We consider unavoidable chromatic patterns in $2$-colorings of the edges of the complete graph. Several such problems are explored being a junction point between Ramsey theory, extremal graph theory (Tur\'an type problems), zero-sum Ramsey…
