Small Ramsey Numbers

Actually determining the Ramsey numbers\(R(m,n)\)Ramsey number \(R(m,n)\) referenced in seems to be a notoriously difficult problem, and only a handful of these values are known precisely. In particular, \(R(3,3)=6\) and \(R(4,4)=18\), while \(43\le R(5,5)\le 49\). The distinguished Hungarian mathematician Paul Erdős said on many occasions that it might be possible to determine \(R(5,5)\) exactly, if all the world's mathematical talent were to be focused on the problem. But he also said that finding the exact value of \(R(6,6)\) might be beyond our collective abilities.

In the following table, we provide information about the Ramsey numbers \(R(m,n)\) when \(m\) and \(n\) are at least \(3\) and at most \(9\). When a cell contains a single number, that is the precise answer. When there are two numbers, they represent lower and upper bounds.

İnsanlar soruşurlar

What is the difference between probability and statistics?

Probability goes from a known model to what the data should look like; statistics goes from data back to the model. Probability theory is the deductive half.

What does the law of large numbers promise?

That the average of many independent samples converges to the expected value. It says nothing about any single trial.
