Ramsey theory, named after the British mathematician and philosopher Frank P. Ramsey, is a branch of mathematics that focuses on the appearance of order in a substructure given a structure of a known size. In this talk, we will introduce
a short history of Ramsey theory, the four basic Ramsey problems, some known probabilistic methods, and their applications in coding theory and game theory.
