For a positive integer $r$, let $G(r)$ be the smallest $N$ such that, whenever the edges of the Cartesian product $K_N \times K_N$ are $r$-coloured, then there is a rectangle in which both pairs of opposite edges receive the same colour. In…

We improve the previuosly known bound for some vertex Folkman numbers.

We survey recent results on bounds for Betti numbers of modules over polynomial rings, with an emphasis on lower bounds. Along the way, we give a gentle introduction to free resolutions and Betti numbers, and discuss some of the reasons why…

We give some bounds on edge Folkman numbers.

We define and develop preliminary theoretical results for the $\Gamma$-switch Ramsey number, a variation on the classical $m$-colour Ramsey number for which we allow permuting the colours incident with a vertex using elements of a group…

We present improved lower bounds for nine classical Ramsey numbers: $\mathbf{R}(3, 13)$ is increased from $60$ to $61$, $\mathbf{R}(3, 18)$ from $99$ to $100$, $\mathbf{R}(4, 13)$ from $138$ to $139$, $\mathbf{R}(4, 14)$ from $147$ to…

We study the generalized Ramsey numbers $f(Q_n, C_{k}, q)$, that is, the minimum number of colors needed to edge-color the hypercube $Q_n$ so that every copy of the cycle $C_{k}$ has at least $q$ colors. Our main result is that for any…

We obtain new upper and lower bounds on the number of unit perimeter triangles spanned by points in the plane. We also establish improved bounds in the special case where the point set is a section of the integer grid.

We find some general lower bounds of the sum of certain families of multigraded Betti numbers of any simplicial complex with a vertex coloring.

We prove a new upper bound for diagonal two-colour Ramsey numbers, showing that there exists a constant $C$ such that \[r(k+1, k+1) \leq k^{- C \frac{\log k}{\log \log k}} \binom{2k}{k}.\]

In this paper we define new numbers called the Neo-Ramsay numbers. We show that these numbers are in fact equal to the Ramsay numbers. Neo-Ramsey numbers are easy to compute and for finding them it is not necessary to check all possible…

We give new, explicit and asymptotically sharp, lower bounds for dimensions of irreducible modular representations of finite symmetric groups.

The Ramsey number $r(t;\ell)$ is the smallest $n$ such that every $\ell$-coloring of the edges of $K_n$ gives a monochromatic $K_{t}$. In recent years, there have been several improvements on asymptotic lower bounds for these numbers when…

We obtain a new upper bound for binary sums with multiplicative characters over variables belong to some sets, having small additive doubling.

We obtain a double exponential bound in Brauer's generalisation of van der Waerden's theorem, which concerns progressions with the same colour as their common difference. Such a result has been obtained independently and in much greater…

The multicolor Ramsey number $r_k(F)$ of a graph $F$ is the least integer $n$ such that in every coloring of the edges of $K_n$ by $k$ colors there is a monochromatic copy of $F$. In this short note we prove an upper bound on $r_k(F)$ for a…

Let $F$, $G$ and $H$ be simple graphs. We say $F \rightarrow (G, H)$ if for every $2$-coloring of the edges of $F$ there exists a monochromatic $G$ or $H$ in $F$. The Ramsey number $r(G, H)$ is defined as $r(G, H) = min\{|V (F)|: F…

Recently, Ma, Shen and Xie broke the Erd\H{o}s barrier for off-diagonal Ramsey numbers $R(\ell,C\ell)$, achieving the first exponential improvement over the classical lower bound for every $C>1$ and sufficiently large $\ell$. Hunter,…

Let $f(n,p,q)$ denote the minimum number of colors needed to color the edges of $K_n$ so that every copy of $K_p$ receives at least $q$ distinct colors. In this note, we show $\frac{6}{7}(n-1) \leq f(n,5,8) \leq n + o(n)$. The upper bound…

Let $K\_{[k,t]}$ be the complete graph on $k$ vertices from which a set of edges, induced by a clique of order $t$, has been dropped. In this note we give two explicit upper bounds for $R(K\_{[k\_1,t\_1]},\dots, K\_{[k\_r,t\_r]})$ (the…
