COMMENT

R(m,n) = minimal number of nodes R such that in any graph with R nodes there is either an m-clique or an independent set of size n. This sequence gives the diagonal entries R(n,n).

Only these values have been proved: 0,1,2,6,18. The next terms is known to be in the range 43-49. - njas, Sep 16 2006
