An ordered graph is a pair $\mathcal{G}=(G,\prec)$ where $G$ is a graph and $\prec$ is a total ordering of its vertices. The ordered Ramsey number $\overline{R}(\mathcal{G})$ is the minimum number $N$ such that every ordered complete graph with $N$ vertices and with edges colored by two colors contains a monochromatic copy of $\mathcal{G}$. In contrast with the case of unordered graphs, we show that there are arbitrarily large ordered matchings $\mathcal{M}_n$ on $n$ vertices for which… Expand

Off-Diagonal Ordered Ramsey Numbers of Matchings
It is shown that the off-diagonal ordered Ramsey numbers for matchings in which edges do not cross are nearly linear, and a truly sub-quadratic upper bound for random matchings with interval chromatic number 2 is proved. Expand
