  A Gallai coloring is a coloring of the edges of a complete graph without
rainbow triangles, and a Gallai $k$-coloring is a Gallai coloring that uses at
most $k$ colors. Given an integer $k\ge1$ and graphs $H_1, \ldots, H_k$, the
Gallai-Ramsey number $GR(H_1, \ldots, H_k)$ is the least integer $n$ such that
every Gallai $k$-coloring of the complete graph $K_n$ contains a monochromatic
copy of $H_i$ in color $i$ for some $i \in \{1,2, \ldots, k\}$. When $H = H_1 =
\cdots = H_k$, we simply write $GR_k(H)$. We study Gallai-Ramsey numbers of
even cycles and paths. For all $n\ge3$ and $k\ge2$, let $G_i=P_{2i+3}$ be a
path on $2i+3$ vertices for all $i\in\{0,1, \ldots, n-2\}$ and
$G_{n-1}\in\{C_{2n}, P_{2n+1}\}$. Let $ i_j\in\{0,1,\ldots, n-1 \}$ for all
$j\in\{1,2, \ldots, k\}$ with $ i_1\ge i_2\ge\cdots\ge i_k $. The first author
recently conjectured that $ GR(G_{i_1}, G_{i_2}, \ldots, G_{i_k}) =
|G_{i_1}|+\sum_{j=2}^k i_j$. The truth of this conjecture implies that
$GR_k(C_{2n})=GR_k(P_{2n})=(n-1)k+n+1$ for all $n\ge3$ and $k\ge1$, and
$GR_k(P_{2n+1})=(n-1)k+n+2$ for all $n\ge1$ and $k\ge1$. In this paper, we
prove that the aforementioned conjecture holds for $n\in\{3,4\}$ and all
$k\ge2$. Our proof relies only on Gallai's result and the classical Ramsey
numbers $R(H_1, H_2)$, where $H_1, H_2\in\{C_8, C_6, P_7, P_5, P_3\}$. We
believe the recoloring method we developed here will be very useful for solving
subsequent cases, and perhaps the conjecture.
