    The random graph

    Full text link
    Erd\H{o}s and R\'{e}nyi showed the paradoxical result that there is a unique (and highly symmetric) countably infinite random graph. This graph, and its automorphism group, form the subject of the present survey.Comment: Revised chapter for new edition of book "The Mathematics of Paul Erd\H{o}s

    Local colourings and monochromatic partitions in complete bipartite graphs

    Full text link
    We show that for any 22-local colouring of the edges of the balanced complete bipartite graph Kn,nK_{n,n}, its vertices can be covered with at most~33 disjoint monochromatic paths. And, we can cover almost all vertices of any complete or balanced complete bipartite rr-locally coloured graph with O(r2)O(r^2) disjoint monochromatic cycles.\\ We also determine the 22-local bipartite Ramsey number of a path almost exactly: Every 22-local colouring of the edges of Kn,nK_{n,n} contains a monochromatic path on nn vertices.Comment: 18 page

    Ramsey numbers for partially-ordered sets

    Full text link
    We present a refinement of Ramsey numbers by considering graphs with a partial ordering on their vertices. This is a natural extension of the ordered Ramsey numbers. We formalize situations in which we can use arbitrary families of partially-ordered sets to form host graphs for Ramsey problems. We explore connections to well studied Tur\'an-type problems in partially-ordered sets, particularly those in the Boolean lattice. We find a strong difference between Ramsey numbers on the Boolean lattice and ordered Ramsey numbers when the partial ordering on the graphs have large antichains.Comment: 18 pages, 3 figures, 1 tabl

    Ramsey numbers R(K3,G) for graphs of order 10

    In this article we give the generalized triangle Ramsey numbers R(K3,G) of 12 005 158 of the 12 005 168 graphs of order 10. There are 10 graphs remaining for which we could not determine the Ramsey number. Most likely these graphs need approaches focusing on each individual graph in order to determine their triangle Ramsey number. The results were obtained by combining new computational and theoretical results. We also describe an optimized algorithm for the generation of all maximal triangle-free graphs and triangle Ramsey graphs. All Ramsey numbers up to 30 were computed by our implementation of this algorithm. We also prove some theoretical results that are applied to determine several triangle Ramsey numbers larger than 30. As not only the number of graphs is increasing very fast, but also the difficulty to determine Ramsey numbers, we consider it very likely that the table of all triangle Ramsey numbers for graphs of order 10 is the last complete table that can possibly be determined for a very long time.Comment: 24 pages, submitted for publication; added some comment
