A note on rainbow saturation number of paths

For a fixed graph $F$ and an integer $t$, the \dfn{rainbow saturation number} of $F$, denoted by $sa{t}_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(F))$, is defined as the minimum number of edges in a $t$-edge-colored graph on $n$ vertices which does not contain a \dfn{rainbow copy} of $F$, i.e., a copy of $F$ all of whose edges receive a different color, but the addition of any missing edge in any color from $[t]$ creates such a rainbow copy. Barrus, Ferrara, Vardenbussche and Wenger prove that $sa{t}_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(P_{\mathrm{\ell }}))\ge n-1$ for $\mathrm{\ell }\ge 4$ and $sat_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(P_\ell))\le \lceil \frac{n}{\ell-1} \rceil \cdot \binom{\ell-1}{2}$for$t\ge \binom{\ell-1}{2}$,where$P_\ell$isapathwith$\ell$edges\mathrm{.}Inthisshortnote,weimprovetheupperboundsandshowthat$sat_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(P_\ell))\le \lceil \frac{n}{\ell} \rceil \cdot \left({{\ell-2}\choose {2}}+4\right)$for$\ell\ge 5$and$t\ge 2\ell-5$.
