Abstract: | The study of the CO‐irredundant Ramsey numbers t(n1, ···, nk) is initiated. It is shown that several values and bounds for these numbers may be obtained from the well‐studied generalized graph Ramsey numbers and the values of t(4, 5), t(4, 6) and t(3, 3, m) are calculated. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
