Abstract
Given graphs H 1 ,...,H k , a graph G is ( H 1 ,...,H k )-free if there is a k -edge-colouring φ : E ( G ) → [ k ] with no monochromatic copy of H i with edges of colour i for each i ∈ [ k ]. Fix a function f ( n ), the Ramsey-Tur ́an function RT( n,H 1 ,...,H k ,f ( n )) is the maximum number of edges in an n -vertex ( H 1 ,...,H k )-free graph with independence number at most f ( n ). We determine RT( n,K 3 ,K s ,δn ) for s ∈ { 3 , 4 , 5 } and sufficiently small δ , confirming a conjecture of Erd ̋os and S ́os from 1979. It is known that RT( n,K 8 ,f ( n )) has a phase transition at f ( n ) = Θ( √ n log n ). However, the value of RT( n,K 8 ,o ( √ n log n )) was not known. We determined this value by proving RT( n,K 8 ,o ( √ n log n )) = n 2 4 + o ( n 2 ), answering a question of Balogh, Hu and Simonovits. The proofs utilise, among others, dependent random choice and results from graph packings.
