Generalised Ramsey numbers for small graphs

The generalised Ramsey number R(G₁, G₂,..., G_k) is defined as the smallest integer n such that, if the edges of K_n, the complete graph on n vertices, are coloured using k colours C₁, C₂,..., C_k, then for some i(1≤i≤k) there is a subgraph G_i of K_n with all of its edges colour C_i. When G₁=G₂=...,G_k=G, we use the more compact notation R_k(G).The generalised Ramsey numbers R_k(G) are investigated for all graphs G having at most four vertices (and no isolates). This extends the work of Chvátal and Harary, who made this investigation in the case k=2.
