Triangular Ramsey Numbers

open access: yesIntegers, 2016
The purpose of this paper is to introduce the idea of triangular Ramsey numbers and provide values as well as upper and lower bounds for them. To do this, the combinatorial game Mines is introduced; after some necessary theorems about triangular sets are proved. This game is easy enough that young children are able to play. The most basic variations of

Ramsey Numbers for Connected 2-Colorings of Complete Graphs

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2023
In 1978, David Sumner introduced a variation of Ramsey numbers by restricting to 2-colorings in which the subgraphs spanned by edges in each color are connected.

Planar Ramsey Numbers

open access: yesJournal of Combinatorial Theory, Series B, 1993
The planar Ramsey number \(\text{PR}(k,\ell)\) \((k,\ell\geq 2)\) is the smallest integer \(n\) such that any planar graph on \(n\) vertices contains either a complete graph on \(k\) vertices or an independent set of size \(\ell\). We find exact values of \(\text{PR}(k,\ell)\) for all \(k\) and \(\ell\).

A note on the Ramsey numbers for theta graphs versus the wheel of order 5

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2018
The study of exact values and bounds on the Ramsey numbers of graphs forms an important family of problems in the extremal graph theory. For a set of graphs S and a graph F , the Ramsey number R (S , F) is the smallest positive integer r such that for ...

On mixed ramsey numbers

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1996
For a graph-theoretic parameter \(f\), an integer \(m\) and a graph \(H\), the mixed Ramsey number \(v(f;m;H)\) is the least positive integer \(p\) such that if \(G\) is any graph of order \(p\), then either \(f(G) \geq m\) or \(\overline G\) contains a subgraph isomorphic to \(H\).

Tower Gaps in Multicolour Ramsey Numbers

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2023
Resolving a problem of Conlon, Fox and Rödl, we construct a family of hypergraphs with arbitrarily large tower height separation between their $2$ -colour and q-colour Ramsey numbers.

On Ramsey numbers of hedgehogs [PDF]

open access: yesCombinatorics, Probability and Computing, 2019
AbstractThe hedgehog Ht is a 3-uniform hypergraph on vertices $1, \ldots ,t + \left({\matrix{t \cr 2}}\right)$ such that, for any pair (i, j) with 1 ≤ i < j ≤ t, there exists a unique vertex k > t such that {i, j, k} is an edge. Conlon, Fox and Rödl proved that the two-colour Ramsey number of the hedgehog grows polynomially in the number of its ...

A General Lower Bound on Gallai-Ramsey Numbers for Non-Bipartite Graphs

open access: yesTheory and Applications of Graphs, 2018
Given a graph $H$ and a positive integer $k$, the $k$-color Gallai-Ramsey number $gr_{k}(K_{3} : H)$ is defined to be the minimum number of vertices $n$ for which any $k$-coloring of the complete graph $K_{n}$ contains either a rainbow triangle or a ...
