In this paper we determine the Ramsey number $R(3,3,k)$ up to a constant factor, showing that $$R(3,3,k) = \Theta\bigg( \frac{k^3}{(\log k)^2} \bigg).$$ The proof of the lower bound combines the Hefty-Horn-King-Pfender construction for $R(3,k)$ with the method of Alon and R\"odl. Using the same proof, we also determine...

We determine, up to a factor of $2^{o(k)}$, the number of $k$-sets $A \subset \{1, \ldots, n\}$ such that $|A + A| \leq m$, where $k = \Theta(\log n)$ and $m \leq k^{1 + \alpha}$, for small $\alpha>0$, answering a question of Green and Morris.

The van der Waerden number $w(k)$ is the smallest positive integer $N$ such that every two-coloring of $\{1,2,\ldots,N\}$ contains a monochromatic $k$-term arithmetic progression. We prove that $w(k) \geq (1-o(1))k2^{k-1}$ holds for all positive integers $k$. This verifies a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s. In 1968, Berlekamp...
