| Abstract | Given graphs $H_{1}$, $H_{2}$, a graph G is $(H_{1}$, $H_{2}$) -Ramsey if, for every colouring of the edges of G with red and blue, there is a red copy of $H_{1}$ or a blue copy of $H_{2}$. In this paper we investigate Ramsey questions in the setting of randomly perturbed graphs. This is a random graph model introduced by Bohman, Frieze and Martin [8] in which one starts with a dense graph and then adds a given number of random edges to it. The study of Ramsey properties of randomly perturbed graphs was initiated by Krivelevich, Sudakov and Tetali [30] in 2006; they determined how many random edges must be added to a dense graph to ensure the resulting graph is with high probability $(K_{3}$, $K_{t}$) -Ramsey (for t ≽ 3). They also raised the question of generalizing this result to pairs of graphs other than $(K_{3}$, $K_{t}$). We make significant progress on this question, giving a precise solution in the case when $H_{1}$ = $K_{s}$ and $H_{2}$ = $K_{t}$ where s, t ≽ 5. Although we again show that one requires polynomially fewer edges than in the purely random graph, our result shows that the problem in this case is quite different to the $(K_{3}$, $K_{t}$) -Ramsey question. Moreover, we give bounds for the corresponding $(K_{4}$, $K_{t}$) -Ramsey question; together with a construction of Powierski [37] this resolves the $(K_{4}$, $K_{4}$) -Ramsey problem.We also give a precise solution to the analogous question in the case when both $H_{1}$ = $C_{s}$ and $H_{2}$ = $C_{t}$ are cycles. Additionally we consider the corresponding multicolour problem. Our final result gives another generalization of the Krivelevich, Sudakov and Tetali [30] result. Specifically, we determine how many random edges must be added to a dense graph to ensure the resulting graph is with high probability $(C_{s}$, $K_{t}$) -Ramsey (for odd s ≽ 5 and t ≽ 4).To prove our results we combine a mixture of approaches, employing the container method, the regularity method as well as dependent random choice, and apply robust extensions of recent asymmetric random Ramsey results. |
