Small Ramsey Numbers
We present data which, to the best of our knowledge, includes all known nontrivial values and bounds for specific graph, hypergraph and multicolor Ramsey numbers, where the avoided graphs are complete or complete without one edge. Many results pertaining to other more studied cases are also presented. We give references to all cited bounds and values, as well as to previous similar compilations. We do not attempt complete coverage of asymptotic behavior of Ramsey numbers, but concentrate on their specific values

and Computing 11. The results of 143 references depend on computer algorithms. The references are ordered alphabetically by the last name of the first author, and where multiple papers have the same first author they are ordered by the last name of the second author, etc. We preferred that all work by the same author be in consecutive positions. Unfortunately, this causes that some of the abbreviations are not in alphabetical order. For example, [BaRT] is earlier on the list than [BaLS]. We also wish to explain a possible confusion with respect to the order of parts and spelling of Chinese names. We put them without any abbreviations, often with the last name written first as is customary in original. Sometimes this is different from the citations in other sources. One can obtain all variations of writing any specific name by consulting the authors database of Mathematical Reviews a
The bipartite Ramsey numbers
For the given bipartite graphs , the multicolor bipartite
Ramsey number is the smallest positive integer
such that any -edge-coloring of contains a monochromatic subgraph
isomorphic to , colored with the th color for some . We
compute the exact values of the bipartite Ramsey numbers for
On the Parameterized Complexity of the Acyclic Matching Problem
A matching is a set of edges in a graph with no common endpoint. A matching M
is called acyclic if the induced subgraph on the endpoints of the edges in M is
acyclic. Given a graph G and an integer k, Acyclic Matching Problem seeks for
an acyclic matching of size k in G. The problem is known to be NP-complete. In
this paper, we investigate the complexity of the problem in different aspects.
First, we prove that the problem remains NP-complete for the class of planar
bipartite graphs of maximum degree three and arbitrarily large girth. Also, the
problem remains NP-complete for the class of planar line graphs with maximum
degree four. Moreover, we study the parameterized complexity of the problem. In
particular, we prove that the problem is W[1]-hard on bipartite graphs with
respect to the parameter k. On the other hand, the problem is fixed parameter
tractable with respect to the parameters tw and (k, c4), where tw and c4 are
the treewidth and the number of cycles with length 4 of the input graph. We
also prove that the problem is fixed parameter tractable with respect to the
parameter k for the line graphs and every proper minor-closed class of graphs
(including planar graphs)
On Size Bipartite and Tripartite Ramsey Numbers for The Star Forest and Path on 3 Vertices
For simple graphs G and H the size multipartite Ramsey number mj(G,H) is the smallest natural number t such that any arbitrary red-blue coloring on the edges of Kjxt contains a red G or a blue H as a subgraph. We studied the size tripartite Ramsey numbers m3(G,H) where G=mK1,n and H=P3. In this paper, we generalize this result. We determine m3(G,H) where G is a star forest, namely a disjoint union of heterogeneous stars, and H=P3. Moreover, we also determine m2(G,H) for this pair of graphs G and H
