1	Topics in finite graph Ramsey theory Borgersen, Robert David 18 January 2008 (has links) For a positive integer $r$ and graphs $F$, $G$, and $H$, the graph Ramsey arrow notation $F \longrightarrow (G)^H_r$ means that for every $r$-colouring of the subgraphs of $F$ isomorphic to $H$, there exists a subgraph $G'$ of $F$ isomorphic to $G$ such that all the subgraphs of $G'$ isomorphic to $H$ are coloured the same. Graph Ramsey theory is the study of the graph Ramsey arrow and related arrow notations for other kinds of ``graphs" (\emph{e.g.}, ordered graphs, or hypergraphs). This thesis surveys finite graph Ramsey theory, that is, when all structures are finite. One aspect surveyed here is determining for which $G$, $H$, and $r$, there exists an $F$ such that $F \longrightarrow (G)^H_r$. The existence of such an $F$ is guaranteed when $H$ is complete, whether ``subgraph" means weak or induced, and existence results are also surveyed when $H$ is non-complete. When such an $F$ exists, other aspects are surveyed, such as determining the order of the smallest such $F$, finding such an $F$ in some restricted family of graphs, and describing the set of minimal such $F$'s. / February 2008 Ramsey graph Ramsey theory graph theory Ramsey's theorem Ramsey numbers graph Ramsey induced graph Ramsey extremal graph Ramsey graph linear Ramsey restricted Ramsey Ramsey minimal minimal Ramsey Ramsey arrow
