For two given graphs G 1 and G 2, the Ramsey number R (G 1, G 2) is the smallest integer N such that for any graph of order N, either G contains a copy of G 1 or its complement contains a copy of G 2. Let C m be a cycle of length m and K 1, n a star of order n+ 1. Parsons (1975)[6] shows that R (C 4, K 1, n)≤ n+⌊ n− 1⌋+ 2 for all n≥ 2 and the equality holds if n is the square of a prime power. Let q be a prime power. In this paper, we first construct a graph Γ q on q 2− 1 vertices without C 4 by using the Galois field F q, and then we prove that R (C 4, K 1,(q− 1) 2+ t)=(q− 1) 2+ q+ t for q≥ 4 is even and t= 1, 0,− 2, and R (C 4, K 1, q (q− 1)− t)= q 2− t for q≥ 5 is odd and t= 2, 4,..., 2⌈ q 4⌉.
