Generalized Ramsey numbers of cycles, paths, and hypergraphs (2405.15904v2)

Published 24 May 2024 in math.CO

Abstract: Given a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ and a set of $k$-uniform hypergraphs $\mathcal{H}$, the generalized Ramsey number $f(G,\mathcal{H},q)$ is the minimum number of colors needed to edge-color $G$ so that every copy of every hypergraph $H\in \mathcal{H}$ in $G$ receives at least $q$ different colors. In this note we obtain bounds, some asymptotically sharp, on several generalized Ramsey numbers, when $G=K_n$ or $G=K_{n,n}$ and $\mathcal{H}$ is a set of cycles or paths, and when $G=K_nk$ and $\mathcal{H}$ contains a clique on $k+2$ vertices or a tight cycle.
