A graph G is r-Ramsey for a graph H, denoted by G→(H) r, if every r-colouring of the edges of G contains a monochromatic copy of H. The graph G is called r-Ramsey-minimal for H if it is r-Ramsey for H but no proper subgraph of G possesses this property. Let s r (H) denote the smallest minimum degree of G over all graphs G that are r-Ramsey-minimal for H. The study of the parameter s 2 was initiated by Burr, Erdős, and Lovász in 1976 when they showed that for the clique s 2 (K k)=(k− 1) 2. In this paper, we study the dependency of s r (K k) on r and show that, under the condition that k is constant, s r (K k)= r 2⋅ polylog r. We also give an upper bound on s r (K k) which is polynomial in both r and k, and we show that c r 2 ln r⩽ s r (K 3)⩽ C r 2 ln 2 r for some constants c, C> 0.
