Abstract The book graph $B_n ^{(k)}$ consists of $n$ copies $K_{k+1}$ joined along a common $K_k$ . In the prequel to this paper, we studied diagonal Ramsey number $r(B_n ^{(k)}, B_n ^{(k)})$ Here consider natural off-diagonal variant $r(B_{cn} B_n^{(k)})$ for fixed $c \in (0,1]$ more general setting, show that an interesting dichotomy emerges: very small $c$ , simple $k$ -partite construction ...
