Abstract

We show in this note that in the forcing extension by Add(ω,iω), the following Ramsey property holds: for any r ∈ ω and any f : R → r, there exists an infinite X ⊂ R such that X + X is monochromatic under f. We also show the Ramsey statement above is true in ZFC when r = 2. This answers two questions of Komjáth et al. (2019).
