A graph G is Ramsey for H if every two-colouring of the edges of G contains a monochromatic copy of H. Two graphs H and H′ are Ramsey-equivalent if every graph G is Ramsey for H if and only if it is Ramsey for H′. In this paper, we study the problem of determining which graphs are Ramsey-equivalent to the complete graph K k. A famous theorem of Nešetřil and Rödl implies that any graph H which is Ramsey-equivalent to K k must contain K k. We prove that the only connected graph which is Ramsey-equivalent to K k is itself. This gives a negative answer to the question of Szabó, Zumstein, and Zürcher on whether K k is Ramsey-equivalent to K k⋅ K 2, the graph on k+ 1 vertices consisting of K k with a pendent edge. In fact, we prove a stronger result. A graph G is Ramsey minimal for a graph H if it is Ramsey for H but no proper subgraph of G is Ramsey for H. Let s (H) be the smallest minimum degree over all Ramsey minimal graphs for H. The study of s (H) was introduced by Burr, Erdős, and Lovász, where they show that s (K k)=(k− 1) 2. We prove that s (K k⋅ K 2)= k− 1, and hence K k and K k⋅ K 2 are not Ramsey-equivalent. We also address the question of which non-connected graphs are Ramsey-equivalent to K k. Let f (k, t) be the maximum f such that the graph H= K k+ f K t, consisting of K k and f disjoint copies of K t, is Ramsey-equivalent to K k. Szabó, Zumstein, and Zürcher gave a lower bound on f (k, t). We prove an upper bound on f (k, t) which is roughly within a factor 2 of the lower bound.
