摘要
In this paper, the t-color star-critical Gallai-Ramsey number for a path of order 5 is determined. It is proved that t+1 edges are both necessary and sufficient to add between a vertex and a critical coloring for the t-color Gallai-Ramsey number for P-5 in order to guarantee the existence of a monochromatic subgraph isomorphic to P-5. The proof depends on a well-known structural result for Gallai colorings as well as a general lower bound due to Faudree, Gould, Jacobson, and Magnant.
