Four Roads to the Ramsey Function

Joel Spencer

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

In this paper we are concerned with lower bounds to the Ramsey function R(k). We examine four arguments and the bounds they yield. All arguments we consider are variants of the probabilistic method.
