The bipartite Ramsey numbers $BR(C_8, C_{2n})$

Mostafa Gholami, Yaser Rowshan

Abstract

For the given bipartite graphs $G_1,G_2,\ldots,G_t$, the multicolor bipartite Ramsey number $BR(G_1,G_2,\ldots,G_t)$ is the smallest positive integer $b$ such that any $t$-edge-coloring of $K_{b,b}$ contains a monochromatic subgraph isomorphic to $G_i$, colored with the $i$th color for some $1\leq i\leq t$. We compute the exact values of the bipartite Ramsey numbers $BR(C_8,C_{2n})$ for $n\geq2$.
