Centerpole sets for colorings of Abelian groups

Combinatorics 2011-08-23 v3 General Topology Group Theory

Abstract

Given a topological group GG we calculate or evaluate the cardinal characteristic ck(G)c_k(G) (and ckB(G)c_k^B(G)) equal to the smallest cardinality of a kk-centerpole subset CGC\subset G for (Borel) colorings of GG. A subset CGC\subset G of a topological group GG is called {\em kk-centerpole} if for each (Borel) kk-coloring of GG there is an unbounded monochromatic subset GG, which is symmetric with respect to a point cCc\in C in the sense that S=cS1cS=cS^{-1}c.
