چکیده

In this paper we study multipartite Ramsey numbers for odd cycles. We formulate the following conjecture: Let n ≥ 5 be an arbitrary positive odd integer; then, in any two-coloring of the edges of the complete 5-partite graph K((n − 1)/2, (n − 1)/2, (n − 1)/2, (n − 1)/2, 1) there is a monochromatic Cn, ∗2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 05C55, 05C38. †Research supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. DMS-0456401.

A multipartite Ramsey number for odd cycles

In this paper we study multipartite Ramsey numbers for odd cycles. Our main result is the proof of a conjecture of Gyárfás, Sárközy and Schelp [12]. Precisely, let n ≥ 5 be an arbitrary positive odd integer; then in any two-coloring of the edges of the complete 5-partite graph K(n−1)/2,(n−1)/2,(n−1)/2,(n−1)/2,1 there is a monochromatic cycle of length n. keywords: cycles, Ramsey number, Regular...

On size multipartite Ramsey numbers for stars versus paths and cycles

Let Kl×t be a complete, balanced, multipartite graph consisting of l partite sets and t vertices in each partite set. For given two graphs G1 and G2, and integer j ≥ 2, the size multipartite Ramsey number mj(G1, G2) is the smallest integer t such that every factorization of the graph Kj×t := F1 ⊕ F2 satisfies the following condition: either F1 contains G1 or F2 contains G2. In 2007, Syafrizal e...

Size multipartite Ramsey numbers for stripes versus small cycles

For simple graphs G1 and G2, the size Ramsey multipartite number mj(G1, G2) is defined as the smallest natural number s such that any arbitrary two coloring of the graph Kj×s using the colors red and blue, contains a red G1 or a blue G2 as subgraphs. In this paper, we obtain the exact values of the size Ramsey numbers mj(nK2, Cm) for j ≥ 2 and m ∈ {3, 4, 5, 6}.

Ramsey numbers in complete balanced multipartite graphs. Part II: Size numbers

The notion of a graph theoretic Ramsey number is generalised by assuming that both the original graph whose edges are arbitrarily bi–coloured and the sought after monochromatic subgraphs are complete, balanced, multipartite graphs, instead of complete graphs as in the classical definition. We previously confined our attention to diagonal multipartite Ramsey numbers. In this paper the definition...
