On the minimum degree of minimal Ramsey graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the minimization problem of the minimum degree of minimal Ramsey graphs, initiated by Burr, Erdős, and Lovász. We determine the corresponding graph parameter for numerous bipartite graphs, including bi-regular bipartite graphs and forests. We also make initial progress for graphs of larger chromatic number. Numerous interesting problems remain open.

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 ...
متن کاملMinimum Degrees of Minimal Ramsey Graphs
For graphs F and H, we say F is Ramsey for H if every 2-coloring of the edges of F contains a monochromatic copy of H. The graph F is Ramsey H-minimal if there is no proper subgraph F ′ of F so that F ′ is Ramsey for H. Burr, Erdős, and Lovász defined s(H) to be the minimum degree of F over all Ramsey H-minimal graphs F . Define Ht,d to be a graph on t+ 1 vertices consisting of a complete graph...
متن کاملMinimum degrees and codegrees of minimal Ramsey 3-uniform hypergraphs
A uniform hypergraph H is called k-Ramsey for a hypergraph F , if no matter how one colors the edges of H with k colors, there is always a monochromatic copy of F . We say that H is minimal k-Ramsey for F , if H is k-Ramsey for F but every proper subhypergraph of H is not. Burr, Erdős and Lovasz [S. A. Burr, P. Erdős, and L.

متن کاملPacking nearly optimal Ramsey R(3, t) graphs
In 1995 Kim famously proved the Ramsey bound R(3, t) ≥ ct/ log t by constructing an n-vertex graph that is triangle-free and has independence number at most C √ n log n. We extend this celebrated result, which is best possible up to the value of the constants, by approximately decomposing the complete graph Kn into a packing of such nearly optimal Ramsey R(3, t) graphs. More precisely, for any ...
