Ramsey Theorem [6] for pairs is intuitionistically but not classically provable: it is equivalent to a subclassical principle [2]. In this note we show that Ramsey may be restated in an intuitionistically provable form, which is informative…

Our main result is a robust generalisation of the Cockayne-Lorimer theorem on the multicolour Ramsey number of matchings. It is moreover a generalisation of the transference generalisation of Cockayne-Lorimer, which (informally) says that…

We resolve a conjecture of Cooper-Fenner-Purewal that a certain sequence of combinatorial matrices which can be used to bound small product-Ramsey numbers is positive semidefinite. Because the connection to Ramsey Theory involves solving…

We present a unified approach to proving Ramsey-type theorems for graphs with a forbidden induced subgraph which can be used to extend and improve the earlier results of Rodl, Erdos-Hajnal, Promel-Rodl, Nikiforov, Chung-Graham, and…

We prove that the universal homogeneous 3-uniform hypergraph has finite big Ramsey degrees. This is the first case where big Ramsey degrees are known to be finite for structures in a non-binary language. Our proof is based on the vector (or…

We prove a generalization of the infinite quantum Ramsey theorem of Kennedy et al. (arXiv:1711.09526), showing that it follows from an archetypical "selective" pattern satisfied by certain families of projections in an infinite-dimensional…

Nowhere dense graph classes, introduced by Nesetril and Ossona de Mendez, form a large variety of classes of "sparse graphs" including the class of planar graphs, actually all classes with excluded minors, and also bounded degree graphs and…

A construction described by the current author (2017) uses two linear prototypes to build a compound graph with Ramsey properties inherited from the prototype graphs. The resulting graph is linear; and cyclic if both prototypes are cyclic.…

We show that the automorphism groups of countably categorical linear orders are extremely amenable. Using methods of Kechris, Pestov, and Todorcevic, we use this fact to derive a structural Ramsey theorem for certain families of finite…

We prove that for any monotone class of finite relational structures, the first-order theory of the class is NIP in the sense of stability theory if, and only if, the collection of Gaifman graphs of structures in this class is nowhere…

Classes with bounded rankwidth are MSO-transductions of trees and classes with bounded linear rankwidth are MSO-transductions of paths -- a result that shows a strong link between the properties of these graph classes considered from the…

We explore the relation between various versions of Ramsey theorem and bounding schemes in model ${N}$ of a fragment of arithmetic $F$. Our goal is to recast, in a different framework, and extend some results of Hirst \cite{Hirst-1987}, see…

Ramsey algebras is an attempt to investigate Ramsey spaces generated by algebras in a purely combinatorial fashion. Previous studies have focused on the basic properties of Ramsey algebras and the study of a few specific examples. In this…

We characterize the computational content and the proof-theoretic strength of a Ramsey-type theorem for bi-colorings of so-called {\em exactly large} sets. An {\it exactly large} set is a set $X\subset\Nat$ such that $\card(X)=\min(X)+1$.…

This paper investigates big Ramsey degrees of unrestricted relational structures in (possibly) infinite languages. Despite significant progress in the study of big Ramsey degrees, the big Ramsey degrees of many classes of structures with…

Internal preneighbourhood spaces inside any finitely complete category with finite coproducts and proper factorisation structure were first introduced in my earlier paper. This paper proposes a closure operation on internal preneighbourhood…

We show that if the Ramsey property holds (in a class of sets), then there is no MAD family (in this class, provided it satisfies some modest closure properties), proving a conjecture made by A.R.D.\ Mathias in 1977. As the technique we…
