Multipartite Ramsey number mj(Km, nK2)
Abstract
Assume that Kj× n be a complete, multipartite graph consisting of j partite sets and n vertices in each partite set. For given graphs G1, G2,…, Gn, the multipartite Ramsey number (M-R-number) mj(G1, G2, …,Gn) is the smallest integer t such that for any n-edge-coloring (G1,G2,…, Gn) of the edges of Kj× t, Gi contains a monochromatic copy of Gi for at least one i. The size of M-R-number mj(nK2, Cm) for j, n≥ 2 and 4≤ m≤ 6, the size of M-R-number mj(nK2, C7) for j ≥ 2 and n≥ 2, the size of M-R-number mj(nK2,K3), for each j,n≥ 2, the size of M-R-number mj(K3,K3, n1K2,n2K,…,niK2) for j ≤ 6 and i,ni≥ 1 and the size of M-R-number mj(K3,K3, nK2) for j ≥ 2 and n≥ 1 have been computed in several papers up to now. In this article we obtain the values of M-R-number mj(Km, nK2), for each j,n≥ 2 and each m≥ 4.
