Abstract
For an ordinal , we use the Erd\H{o}s--Rado partition theorem to prove the failure of strong completeness of for modal languages of cardinality with respect to models on ordinals equipped with the generalized Icard topologies and . Specifically, we show that for such languages there exists a -consistent set of formulas having neither -model nor -model. We also introduce two kinds of natural classes of topological spaces, called \emph{ -bouquet spaces} and \emph{ultralinear -bouquet spaces}, and prove that they yield strong completeness of and respectively for languages of cardinality .
