We prove—for sufficiently large n—the following conjecture of Faudree and Schelp: $$ R{\left( {P_{n} ,P_{n} ,P_{n} } \right)} = \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {{2n - 1{\kern 1pt} \;{\text{for}}\;{\text{odd}}\;n,}} \\ {{{\text{2n - 2}}\;{\text{for}}\;{\text{even}}\;n,}} \\ \end{array} } \right. $$ , for the three-color Ramsey numbers of paths on n vertices.

Diagonal Ramsey Numbers of Loose Cycles in Uniform Hypergraphs
TLDR
This paper investigates to determining the exact value of diagonal Ramsey number of $\mathcal{C}^k_n$ and shows that for $n\geq 2$ and $k \geq 8$ the Ramsey number is R(k-1)n+\lfloor\frac{n-1}{2}\rfloor.
On Some Three Color Ramsey Numbers for Paths, Cycles, Stripes and Stars
TLDR
The main result of the paper is a theorem which establishes the connection between the multicolor Ramsey number and the appropriateMulticolor bipartite Ramsey number together with the ordinary Ramsey number.
On some Multicolor Ramsey Properties of Random Graphs
TLDR
It is shown that $5n/2-15/2 \le \hat{R}(P_n) \le 74n$ for $n$ sufficiently large, which improves the previous lower bound and improves the upper bound.
Monochromatic loose paths in multicolored k-uniform cliques
TLDR
There is an algorithm such that for every $r$-edge-coloring of the edges of the complete $k$-uniform hypergraph, it finds a monochromatic copy of P_\ell^{(k)}$ in time at most $cn^k$.
Bipartite Ramsey Numbers of Cycles for Random Graphs
TLDR
For graphs G and H, G → k H signify that any k -edge coloring of G contains a monochromatic H as a subgraph.
Monochromatic Matchings in the Shadow Graph of Almost Complete Hypergraphs
Edge colorings of r-uniform hypergraphs naturally define a multicoloring on the 2-shadow, i.e., on the pairs that are covered by hyperedges. We show that in any (r – 1)-coloring of the edges of an…
Exact Ramsey numbers of odd cycles via nonlinear optimisation
Coverings by Few Monochromatic Pieces: A Transition Between Two Ramsey Problems
TLDR
A problem that connects areas of Ramsey theory is proposed: for a fixed positive integers s ≤ t, at least how many vertices can be covered by the vertices of no more than s monochromatic members of F in every edge coloring of Kn with t colors.
Monochromatic square-cycle and square-path partitions
On the Multi-Colored Ramsey Numbers of Paths and Even Cycles
TLDR
The upper bound on the multi-color Ramsey numbers of paths and even cycles is improved and a stability version of the Erdős-Gallai theorem is introduced that may be of independent interest.
