On Geometric Graph Ramsey Numbers

摘要

For any two-colouring of the segments determined by 3n - 3 points in general position in the plane, either the first colour class contains a triangle, or there is a noncrossing cycle of length n in the second colour class, and this result is tight. We also give a series of more general estimates on off-diagonal geometric graph Ramsey numbers in the same spirit. Finally we investigate the existence of large noncrossing monochromatic matchings in multicoloured geometric graphs.
