For two given graphs G1G1 and G2G2, the Ramsey number R(G1,G2)R(G1,G2) is the smallest integer NN such that for any graph of order NN, either GG contains a copy of G1G1 or its complement contains a copy of G2G2. Let CmCm be a cycle of length mm and K1,nK1,n a star of order n+1n+1. Parsons (1975) shows that R(C4,K1,n)≤n+⌊n−1⌋+2 and if nn is the square of a prime power, then the equality holds. In this paper, by discussing the properties of polarity graphs whose vertices are points in the projective planes over Galois fields, we prove that R(C4,K1,q2−t)=q2+q−(t−1)R(C4,K1,q2−t)=q2+q−(t−1) if qq is an odd prime power, 1≤t≤2⌈q4⌉ and t≠2⌈q4⌉−1, which extends a result on R(C4,K1,q2−t)R(C4,K1,q2−t) obtained by Parsons (1976).
