A Note on On-Line Ramsey Numbers for Some Paths

We consider the important generalisation of Ramsey numbers, namely on-line Ramsey numbers. It is easiest to understand them by considering a game between two players, a Builder and Painter, on an infinite set of vertices. In each round, the Builder joins two non-adjacent vertices with an edge, and the Painter colors the edge red or blue. An on-line Ramsey number (r) over tilde (G,H) is the minimum number of rounds it takes the Builder to force the Painter to create a red copy of graph G or a blue copy of graph H, assuming that both the Builder and Painter play perfectly. The Painter's goal is to resist to do so for as long as possible. In this paper, we consider the case where G is a path P-4 and H is a path P-10 or P-11.
