On a ramsey-type problem of J. A. Bondy and P. Erdös. I

TLDR
In this paper, the smallest integer m for which the following statement is true was shown: if a G graph has at least m vertices, then either G contains a Cn (cycle of length n) or G contain a Cp (cyclic length n), then R(Cn, C2r) = n + r − 1.

Small Ramsey Numbers

TL;DR: This work presents data which, to the best of its 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.

On the combinatorial problems which I would most like to see solved

TL;DR: I was asked to write a paper about the major unsolved problems in com-binatorial mathematics, but after some thought it seemed better to modify the title to a less pretentious one, so I state only my three favourite problems.

The Ramsey number for a triple of long even cycles

TL;DR: It is shown that for any real positive numbers @a"1,@a"2, @ a"3 the Ramsey number for a triple of even cycles of lengths is (asymptotically) equal to (@a" 1+@a’s2+@A"3+max{-o(1),-1,-2,-3}+o( 1) .

Generalized ramsey theory for graphs - a survey

TL;DR: A survey of generalized Ramsey numbers for graphs can be found in this article, where the authors emphasize the following class of problems: given graphs G1,..., Gc, determine or estimate the Ramsey number r(G1,, Gc), the smallest number p such that if the lines of a complete graph Kp are c-colored in any manner, then for some j there exists a subgraph in color j which is isomorphic to Gj.

The Ramsey number for hypergraph cycles I

TL;DR: It is proved that every red-blue colouring of the edges of the complete 3-uniform hypergraph with N vertices contains a monochromatic copy of Cn, where N is asymptotically equal to 5n/4.

Ramsey Numbers for Cycles in Graphs

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the Ramsey number R(C n, C n ) = 2n-1 if n is odd, if n > r(2r-1) and if n ≥ 4r 2 -r+2.

On the Existence of Specified Cycles in Complementary Graphs.

TL;DR: In this article, the least integer p such that for any graph G of order p, either G has an m-cycle or its complement G bar has an n-cycle was established for m,n = or < 6.
