Abstract

Bal and DeBiasio [Partitioning random graphs into monochromatic components, Electron. J. Combin. 24 (2017), Paper 1.18] put forward a conjecture concerning the threshold for the following Ramsey-type property for graphs G: every k-colouring of the edge set of G yields k pairwise vertex disjoint monochromatic trees that partition the whole vertex set of G. We determine the threshold for this property for two colours.
