SOME REMARKS ON UNCOUNTABLE RAINBOW RAMSEY THEORY

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We discuss the rainbow Ramsey theorems at limit cardinals and successors of singular cardinals, addressing some questions by Uri Abraham, James Cummings, and Clifford Smyth [J. Symbolic Logic 72 (2007), pp. 865–895] and Uri Abraham and James Cummings [Cent. Eur. J. Math. 10 (2012), pp. 1004–1016]. In particular, we show for inaccessible κ, κ →poly (κ)22−bdd does not characterize weak compactness and for any singular cardinal κ, □κ implies κ+poly (η)2<κ−bdd for any η ≥ cf(κ)+ and κ<cf(κ) = κ implies κ+poly (ν)2<κ−bdd for any ν < cf(κ)+. We also provide a simplified construction of a model for ω2 ⇸poly (ω1)22−bdd originally constructed by Uri Abraham and James Cummings [Cent. Eur. J. Math. 10 (2012), pp. 1004–1016] and show the witnessing coloring is indestructible under strongly proper forcings but destructible under some c.c.c forcing. Finally, we conclude with some remarks and questions on possible generalizations to rainbow partition relations for triples.
