The Ramsey number of dense graphs

Abstract:
The Ramsey number r(H) of a graph H is the smallest number n such that, in any two-colouring of the edges of Kn, there is a monochromatic copy of H. We study the Ramsey number of graphs H with t vertices and density p, proving that r(H) ≤2c √plog(2/p)t. We also investigate some related problems, such as the Ramsey number of graphs with t vertices and maximum degree pt and the Ramsey number of random graphs in G(t,p), that is, graphs on t vertices where each edge has been chosen independently with probability p.
