We consider the restriction of Ramsey's theorem that arises from considering only translation-invariant colourings of pairs, and show that this has the same strength (both from the viewpoint of Reverse Mathematics and from the viewpoint of…

Let $\mathcal{B} = (B_1,\ldots, B_h)$ be an $h$-tuple of sets of positive integers. Let $g_{\mathcal{B} }(n)$ count the number of representations of $n$ in the form $n = b_1\cdots b_h$, where $b_i \in B_i$ for all $i \in \{1,\ldots, h\}$.…

Ramsey theory for words over a finite alphabet was unified in the work of Carlson and Furstenberg-Katznelson. Carlson, in the same work, outlined a method to extend the theory for words over an infinite alphabet, but subject to a fixed…

We consider a Ramsey statement for pairs of maps between trees, where one is an embedding as defined by Deuber and the other is a rigid surjection as defined by Solecki. We show that there is no Ramsey Theorem for pairs of maps where the…

One of the consequences of the Compactness Principle in structural Ramsey theory is that the small Ramsey degrees cannot exceed the corresponding big Ramsey degrees, thereby justifying the choice of adjectives. However, it is unclear what…

We study the uniform computational content of Ramsey's theorem in the Weihrauch lattice. Our central results provide information on how Ramsey's theorem behaves under product, parallelization and jumps. From these results we can derive a…

A distinguishing colouring of a graph is a colouring of the vertex set such that no non-trivial automorphism preserves the colouring. Tucker conjectured that if every non-trivial automorphism of a locally finite graph moves infinitely many…

A recent breakthrough of Conlon and Ferber yielded an exponential improvement on the lower bounds for multicolor diagonal Ramsey numbers. In this note, we modify their construction and obtain improved bounds for more than three colors.

The first-order part of the Ramsey's Theorem for pairs with an arbitrary number of colors is known to be precisely BSigma03. We compare this to the known division of Ramsey's Theorem for pairs into the weaker principles, EM (the…

We introduce the notion of Ramsey partition regularity, a generalisation of partition regularity involving infinitary configurations. We provide characterisations of this notion in terms of certain ultrafilters related to tensor products…

We use double categories to obtain a single theorem characterizing certain exponentiable morphisms of small categories, topological spaces, locales, and posets.

We prove Tur\'an-type theorems for two related Ramsey problems raised by Bollob\'as and by Fox and Sudakov. First, for $t \ge 3$, we show that any two-colouring of the complete graph on $n$ vertices that is $\delta$-far from being…

We show that Ramsey theory, a domain presently conceived to guarantee the existence of large homogeneous sets for partitions on k-tuples of words (for every natural number k) over a finite alphabet, can be extended to one for partitions on…

Consider the following one-player game played on an initially empty graph with $n$ vertices. At each stage a randomly selected new edge is added and the player must immediately color the edge with one of $r$ available colors. Her objective…

Extensions of a set partition obtained by imposing bounds on the size of the parts and the coloring of some of the elements are examined. Combinatorial properties and the generating functions of some counting sequences associated with these…

We show that the $k$-colour Ramsey number of an odd cycle of length $2 \ell + 1$ is at most $(4 \ell)^k \cdot k^{k/\ell}$. This proves a conjecture of Fox and is the first improvement in the exponent that goes beyond an absolute constant…

In the paper we state and prove theorem describing the upper bound on number of the graphs that have fixed number of vertices |V| and can be colored with the fixed number of n colors. The bound relates both numbers using power of 2, while…
