Independence for partition regular equations
A matrix A is said to be partition regular (PR) over a subset S of the positive integers if whenever S is finitely coloured, there exists a vector x, with all elements in the sam...

Large independent sets in regular graphs of large girth
Let G be a d-regular graph with girth g, and let α be the independence number of G. We show that α(G) ≥ 1 2 1 − (d − 1)−2/(d−2) − (g) n where (g) → 0 as g → ∞,...

Ramsey properties of random discrete structures
We study thresholds for Ramsey properties of random discrete structures. In particular, we determine the threshold for Rado’s theorem for solutions of partition regular systems o...

Equations resolving a conjecture of Rado on partition regularity
A linear equation L is called k-regular if every k-coloring of the positive integers contains a monochromatic solution to L. Richard Rado conjectured that for every positive intege...

Consistency for partition regular equations
It is easy to deduce from Ramsey's Theorem that, given positive integers a1, a2, . . . , am and a finite colouring of the set N of positive integers, there exists an injectiv...
