Two Upper Bounds for both the van der Waerden Numbers and , that show the Existence of a Recurrence Relation
Robert J Betts
Using a method we have utilized previously, namely through a finite power series expansion which also sometimes is known as the "radix polynomial" representation of an integer, we…
The Asymptotic Behaviors of and , when is a van der Waerden Number
Robert J Betts
We derive the asymptotic behaviors of and , when is a van der Waerden Number. We use the approach to consider the subsets on the real l…
A nonconstructive Proof to show the Convergence of the root of diagonal Ramsey Number
Robert J. Betts
Does the root of the diagonal Ramsey number converge to a finite limit? The answer is yes. A sequence can be shown to converge if it satifies convergence conditions other…
The Expansion of each van der Waerden number into Powers of , when is the Number of Integer Colorings, determines a greatest lower Bound for all such that
Robert J. Betts
Every positive integer greater than a positive integer can be written as an integer that is the sum of powers of . Here we use this to prove the conjecture posed by Ronald G…
A simple Proof that is an upper Bound on each van der Waerden Number , for each bounded below by a certain positive real Number
Robert J. Betts
Here we answer a conjecture by Ron Graham about getting finer upper bounds for van der Waerden numbers in the affirmative, but without the application of double induction or combin…
Lack of Divisibility of by three fixed odd primes infinitely often, through the Extension of a Result by P. Erdős, et al
Robert J Betts
We provide a way to modify and to extend a previously established inequality by P. Erdős, R. Graham and others and to answer a conjecture posed in the nineties by R. Graham, which…
