Abstract

Let r(st) be the classical 2-color Ramsey number; that is, the smallest integer n such that any edge 2-colored \(K_n\) contains either a monochromatic \(K_s\) of color 1 or \(K_t\) of color 2. Define the signed Ramsey number \(r_\pm (s,t)\) to be the smallest integer n for which any signing of \(K_n\) has a subgraph which switches to \(-K_s\) or \(+K_t\). We prove the following results.

  1. (1)

    \(r_\pm (s,t)=r_\pm (t,s)\)

  2. (2)

    \(r_\pm (s,t)\ge \left\lfloor \frac{s-1}{2}\right\rfloor (t-1)\)

  3. (3)

    \(r_\pm (s,t)\le r(s-1,t-1)+1\)

  4. (4)

    \(r_\pm (3,t)=t\)

  5. (5)

    \(r_\pm (4,4)=7\)

  6. (6)

    \(r_\pm (4,5)=8\)

  7. (7)

    \(r_\pm (4,6)=10\)

  8. (8)

    \(3\!\left\lfloor \frac{t}{2}\right\rfloor \le r_\pm (4,t+1)\le 3t-1\)

有符号的拉姆齐数字
让 r(s, t) 是经典的双色拉姆齐数;也就是说,最小的整数 n,使得任何边的双色 \(K_n\) 包含颜色 1 的单色 \(K_s\) 或颜色 2 的单色 \(K_t\)。定义有符号的拉姆齐数(r_\pm (s,t)\)是最小的整数 n,对于这个整数,\(K_n\)的任何符号都有一个切换到\(-K_s\)或\(+K_t\)的子图。我们证明了以下结果。(1)\(r_\pm (s,t)=r_\pm (t,s)\)(2)\(r_\pm (s,t)\ge \left\lfloor \frac{s-1}{2}\right\rfloor (t-1)\)(3)\(r_\pm (s、(4)(r_\pm (3,t)=t)(5)(r_\pm (4,4)=7)(6)(r_\pm (4,5)=8)(7)(r_\pm (4,6)=10)(8)(3\!\left\lfloor \frac{t}{2}\right\rfloor \le r_\pm (4,t+1)\le 3t-1\)
