Original Announcement
This workshop will be devoted to graph Ramsey
theory. The Ramsey number of a graph $H$, denoted $r(H)$, is the smallest $n$ such
that any two-coloring of the edges of the complete graph on $n$ vertices is
guaranteed to contain a monochromatic copy of $H$. That these numbers exist was
first proved by Ramsey in 1930. Since the 1970s, a coherent theory has grown
around estimating these numbers and their many variants. In this workshop, we
intend to study some topics which have proved particularly fruitful in recent
years.
The main topics for the workshop are:
- Hypergraph Ramsey numbers
- Generalized Ramsey numbers
- Geometric Ramsey theorems
