  • Abstract
    This paper builds upon Sumner’s work by further investigating the concept of connected Ramsey numbers, specifically focusing on star-critical connected Ramsey numbers. We obtain starcritical connected Ramsey numbers for several cases of trees versus complete graphs, stars versus stars, and paths versus paths. The connected Ramsey number for a star versus K3 is also evaluated. Exact values are also obtained for the connected Ramsey numbers of K1,n versus K3. This research explores the interplay between connectivity and graph coloring within the context of Ramsey theory.
