Minimal ordered Ramsey graphs

Minimal Ordered Ramsey Graphs

An ordered graph is a graph equipped with a linear ordering of its vertex set. A pair of ordered graphs is Ramsey finite if it has only finitely many minimal ordered Ramsey graphs and Ramsey infinite otherwise. Here an ordered graph F is an ordered Ramsey graph of a pair (H,H ′) of ordered graphs if for any coloring of the edges of F in colors red and blue there is either a copy of H with all e...

All Ramsey (2K2,C4)−Minimal Graphs

Let F, G and H be non-empty graphs. The notation F → (G,H) means that if any edge of F is colored by red or blue, then either the red subgraph of F con- tains a graph G or the blue subgraph of F contains a graph H. A graph F (without isolated vertices) is called a Ramsey (G,H)−minimal if F → (G,H) and for every e ∈ E(F), (F − e) 9 (G,H). The set of all Ramsey (G,H)−minimal graphs is denoted by ...

On Ramsey Minimal Graphs

An elementary probabilistic argument is presented which shows that for every forest F other than a matching, and every graph G containing a cycle, there exists an infinite number of graphs J such that J → (F,G) but if we delete from J any edge e the graph J − e obtained in this way does not have this property. Introduction. All graphs in this note are undirected graphs, without loops and multip...

Ramsey minimal graphs

As usual, for graphs Γ, G, and H, we write Γ → (G,H) to mean that any red-blue colouring of the edges of Γ contains a red copy of G or a blue copy of H. A pair of graphs (G,H) is said to be Ramsey-infinite if there are infinitely many minimal graphs Γ for which we have Γ → (G,H). Let ` ≥ 4 be an integer. We show that if H is a 2connected graph that does not contain induced cycles of length at l...
