We consider systems of $n$ diagonal equations in $k$th powers. Our main result shows that if the coefficient matrix of such a system is sufficiently non-singular, then the system is partition regular if and only if it satisfies Rado's…
We say that the system of equations $Ax=b$, where $A$ is an integer matrix and $b$ is a (non-zero) integer vector, is partition regular if whenever the integers are finitely coloured there is a monochromatic vector $x$ with $Ax=b$. Rado…
A system of homogeneous linear equations with integer coefficients is partition regular if, whenever the natural numbers are finitely coloured, the system has a monochromatic solution. The Finite Sums theorem provided the first example of…
We study Rado functionals and the maximal condition (first introduced by J. M. Barret et al.) in terms of the partition regularity of mixed systems of linear equations and inequalities. By strengthening the maximal Rado condition, we…
A matrix \( A \) is called \emph{kernel partition regular} if, for every finite coloring of the natural numbers \( \mathbb{N} \), there exists a monochromatic solution to the equation \( A\vec{X} = 0 \). In 1933, Rado characterized such…
A finite or infinite matrix A with rational entries is called partition regular if whenever the natural numbers are finitely coloured there is a monochromatic vector x with Ax=0. Many of the classical theorems of Ramsey Theory may naturally…
Rado's Theorem characterizes the systems of homogenous linear equations having the property that for any finite partition of the positive integers one cell contains a solution to these equations. Furstenberg and Weiss proved that solutions…
We obtain partition regularity results for homogeneous quadratic equations whose parametrized solutions admit nice factorizations into linear forms over rings of integers of imaginary quadratic fields. To do so, we develop number-theoretic…
Building on previous work of Di Nasso and Luperi Baglini, we provide general necessary conditions for a Diophantine equation to be partition regular. These conditions are inspired by Rado's characterization of partition regular linear…
A classical question in combinatorial number theory asks whether an equation has a solution inside a particular subset of its domain. The Rado's Theorem gives a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for a systems of linear equations to…
We establish partition regularity of the generalised Pythagorean equation in five or more variables. Furthermore, we show how Rado's characterisation of a partition regular equation remains valid over the set of positive $k$th powers,…
In 1933, Rado conjectured that for any positive integer n, there is always a linear homogeneous equation with degree of regularity n. In proving this conjecture, Alexeev and Tsimerman, and independently Golowich, found that some equations…
In this article, we investigate homogeneous versions of certain nonlinear Ramsey-theoretic results, with three significant applications. As the first application, we prove that for every finite coloring of $\mathbb{Z}^+$, there exist an…
A system of linear equations with integer coefficients is partition regular over a subset S of the reals if, whenever S\{0} is finitely coloured, there is a solution to the system contained in one colour class. It has been known for some…
Given an associative, not necessarily commutative, ring R with identity, a formal matrix calculus is introduced and developed for pairs of matrices over R. This calculus subsumes the theory of homogeneous systems of linear equations with…
Among the finitely generated modules over a Noetherian ring R, the semidualizing modules have been singled out due to their particularly nice duality properties. When R is a normal domain, we exhibit a natural inclusion of the set of…
We present a proof of the sufficiency of Rado's condition for the partition regularity of linear Diophantine equations that avoids any use of van der Waerden's theorem. The proof is based on fundamental properties that are common knowledge…
A finite or infinite matrix $A$ with rational entries (and only finitely many non-zero entries in each row) is called image partition regular if, whenever the natural numbers are finitely coloured, there is a vector $x$, with entries in the…
We define a linear homogeneous equation to be strongly r-regular if, when a finite number of inequalities is added to the equation, the system of the equation and inequalities is still r-regular. In this paper, we show that, if a linear…
Erd\H{o}s & Graham ask whether the equation $x^2+y^2=z^2$ is partition regular, i.e. whether it has a finite Rado number. This note provides a lower bound and also states results in the affirmative for two similar quadratic equations.
