First defined by Jonelle Hook in her 2010 dissertation, these numbers aim to measure the sharpness of the corresponding Ramsey numbers by determining the minimum number of edges needed to be added to a critical graph for the Ramsey property to hold. Despite being in its infancy, the topic has gained significant attention among Ramsey theorists. This work provides researchers and students with a resource for studying known results and their complete proofs. It covers typical results, including multicolor star-critical Ramsey numbers for complete graphs, trees, cycles, wheels, and n-good graphs, among others. The proofs are streamlined and, in some cases, simplified, with a few new results included. The book also explores the connection between star-critical Ramsey numbers and deleted edge numbers, which focus on destroying the Ramsey property by removing edges. The book concludes with open problems and conjectures for researchers to consider, making it a valuable resource for those studying the field of star-critical Ramsey numbers. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Mathematics,$x2191-8201 606 $aGraph theory 606 $aGraph Theory 606 $aTeoria de Ramsey$2thub 606 $aTeoria de grafs$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 610 $aMathematics 615 0$aGraph theory. 615 14$aGraph Theory. 615 7$aTeoria de Ramsey 615 7$aTeoria de grafs 676 $a511.5 700 $aBudden$b Mark R.$01358337 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910725088203321 996 $aStar-Critical Ramsey Numbers for Graphs$93367524 997 $aUNINA
