On the anti-Ramsey threshold

Combinatorics 2025-01-08 v1

Abstract

We say that a graph GG is anti-Ramsey for a graph HH if any proper edge-colouring of GG yields a rainbow copy of HH, i.e. a copy of HH whose edges all receive different colours. In this work we determine the threshold at which the binomial random graph becomes anti-Ramsey for any fixed graph HH, given that HH is sufficiently dense. Our proof employs a graph decomposition lemma in the style of the Nine Dragon Tree theorem that may be of independent interest.
