The Hales-Jewett Theorem states that any $r$-colouring of $[m]^n$ contains a monochromatic combinatorial line if $n$ is large enough. Shelah's proof of the theorem implies that for $m = 3$ there always exists a monochromatic combinatorial…

The Hales-Jewett theorem for alphabet of size 3 states that whenever the Hales-Jewett cube [3]^n is r-coloured there is a monochromatic line (for n large). Conlon and Kamcev conjectured that, for any n, there is a 2-colouring of [3]^n for…

We show that for $n$ at least $10^{11}$, any 2-coloring of the $n$-dimensional grid $[4]^n$ contains a monochromatic combinatorial line. This is a special case of the Hales-Jewett Theorem, to which the best known general upper bound is due…

Consider the Hales-Jewett theorem. The $k$-dimensional version of it tells us that the combinatorial space $\mathcal{U}_{M, \Lambda} = \{ \eta \mid \eta: M \to \Lambda \}$ has, under suitable assumptions, monochromatic $k$-dimensional…

The Hales-Jewett Theorem states that given any finite nonempty set $\A$ and any finite coloring of the free semigroup $S$ over the alphabet $\A$ there is a {\it variable word\/} over $\A$ all of whose instances are the same color. This…

The Quadratic Density Hales Jewett conjecture with $2$ letters states that for large enough $n$, every dense subset of $\{0,1\}^{n^{2}}$ contains a combinatorial line where the wildcard set is of the form $\gamma \times \gamma$ where…

An abstract, Hales-Jewett type extension of the polynomial van der Waerden Theorem [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 9 (1996),725-753] is established: Theorem. Let r,d,q \in \N. There exists N \in \N such that for any r-coloring of the set of subsets of…

Let D be a finite set of positive real numbers. The distance graph G(R,D) is the graph with vertex set R (set of real numbers), and two vertices x, y are adjacent if |x-y| belongs to D. We prove that every positive integer t>1 there is a…

Recall that van der Waerden's theorem states that any finite coloring of the naturals has arbitrarily long monochromatic arithmetic sequences. We explore questions about the set of differences of those sequences.

The Hales-Jewett theorem asserts that for every r and every k there exists n such that every r-colouring of the n-dimensional grid {1,...,k}^n contains a combinatorial line. This result is a generalization of van der Waerden's theorem, and…

For positive integers $t$ and $n$ let $C_t^n$ be the $n$-cube over $t$ elements, that is, the set of ordered $n$-tuples over the alphabet $\{0,\dots, t-1\}$. We address the question of whether a balanced finite coloring of $C_t^n$…

We prove the following: there is a primitive recursive function f_-^*(-,-), in the three variables, such that: for every natural numbers t,n>0, and c, for any natural number k>=f^*_t(n,c) the following holds. Assume L is an alphabet with…

A classical question in combinatorial number theory asks whether an equation has a solution inside a particular subset of its domain. The Rado's Theorem gives a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for a systems of linear equations to…

Erd\H{o}s and Szekeres's quantitative version of Ramsey's theorem asserts that any complete graph on n vertices that is edge-colored with two colors has a monochromatic clique on at least 1/2log(n) vertices. The famous Erd\H{o}s-Hajnal…

In an $[n] \times [n]$ integer grid, a monochromatic $L$ is any set of points $\{(i, j), (i, j+t), (i+t, j+t)\}$ for some positive integer $t$, where $1 \leq i, j, i+t, j+t \leq n$. In this paper, we investigate the upper bound for the…

This is an exposition of the combinatorial proof of the density Hales--Jewett theorem, due to D.\,H.\,J. Polymath in 2012. The theorem says that for given $\de>0$ and $k$, for every $n>n_0$ every set $A\sus\{1,2,\ds,k\}^n$ with $|A|\ge\de…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane, not all on a line, each colored \emph{red} or \emph{blue}. The classical Motzkin--Rabin theorem guarantees the existence of a \emph{monochromatic} line. Motivated by the seminal work of Green and…

We use the combinatorial properties of central sets to prove a result about the existence of exponential monochromatic patterns, in the style of Hindman's Finite Sums Theorem. More precisely, we prove that for every finite coloring of the…

Let $G=(V_1(G),V_2(G),E(G))$ be a bipartite multigraph, and $R\subseteq V_1(G)\cup V_2(G)$. A proper coloring of edges of $G$ with the colors $1,\ldots,t$ is called interval (respectively, continuous) on $R$, if each color is used for at…

A proper edge-coloring of a graph is an interval coloring if the labels on the edges incident to any vertex form an interval of consecutive integers. Interval thickness s(G) of a graph G is the smallest number of interval colorable graphs…
