Mathematicians have found a new way to impose order on chaos in the form of an answer to a challenge which has puzzled them for nearly a century – a so-called Ramsey problem known as r(4,t).
These types of abstract problems often get applied to physics or various optimization problems where efficient solutions can save a ton of work or enable new techniques
That's just a simple way to phrase the problem in concrete terms. The immediate applications are usually not of interest, unlike the novel techniques with which hard problems are solved.

But this seems to claim it solves some practical problem with parties. I don't know what that problems.
It's about what combinations of "nodes" with specific relations to others are possible in a group of different sizes
