Review: A well-studied question in graph theory asks the following: Given a graph L and an integer r > 0, which graphs G have the property that no matter how the edges of G are r-colored, a monochromatic copy of L must always occur in G? (More precisely, G has a subgraph isomorphic to L in which all edges have the same color. We will typically use this type of informal description when the measuring is clear.) Indeed, the forthcoming book [S. A. Burr, R. Faudree, C. C. Rousseau and R. Schelp, Graphical Ramsey theory (tentative title)] will list several hundred papers which deal with various aspects of this subject. In [S. A. Burr et al., J. Graph Theory 13, No. 3, 263-282 (1989; Zbl 682.05046)], we recently initiated a study of a related problem which in a certain sense goes in the opposite direction.
