The Two-Colour Rado Number for the Equation ax + by = (a + b)z

Abstract: For relatively prime positive integers a and b, let n = R(a, b) denote the least positive integer such that every 2-colouring of [1, n] admits a monochromatic solution to ax + by = (a + b)z with x, y, z distinct integers. It is known that R(a, b) ≤ 4(a + b) + 1. We show that R(a, b) = 4(a + b) + 1, except when (a, b) = (3, 4) or (a, b) = (1, 4k) for some k ≥ 1, and R(a, b) = 4(a + b) − 1 in these exceptional cases.

“…Since the 1980s, Professor Collins of University of Toronto in Canada proposed the compression field theory for shear strength of concrete structures and then proposed the modified compression field theory (MCFT), which provided a new way to calculate the shear strength of RC members, and the accuracy of MCFT has been widely recognized internationally. Hsu and Mo put forward the softened truss model, which was modified by Gupta and Rangan . In this model, the stress distribution of the central panel is assumed to be even, and the compressive stress flow is idealized by the parallel compressive struts.…”

“…such that for a given positive integer r, there exists a least positive integer n = R(S ; r) such that every r-coloring of the integers in the interval [1, n] yields a monochromatic solution to the set S . There has been a growing interest in the determination of the Rado numbers R(S ; r), particularly when S is a single equation and r = 2; for instance, see [1,3,4,5,6,7,9,13,14,15]. When r = 2, we denote this number simply by R(S ).…”
