Starting from a supercompact cardinal we build a model in which $2^{\aleph_{\omega_1}}=2^{\aleph_{\omega_1+1}}=\aleph_{\omega_1+3}$ but there is a jointly universal family of size $\aleph_{\omega_1+2}$ of graphs on $\aleph_{\omega_1+1}$.…
It is proved that in Godel's constructible universe, for every infinite successor cardinal k, there exist graphs G and H of size and chromatic number k, for which the tensor product graph (G x H) is countably chromatic.
The paper is concerned with the existence of a universal graph at the successor of a strong limit singular mu of cofinality aleph_0. Starting from the assumption of the existence of a supercompact cardinal, a model is built in which for…
It is consistent that for every monotonically increasing function f:omega->omega there is a graph with size and chromatic number aleph_1 in which every n-chromatic subgraph has at least f(n) elements (n >= 3). This solves a $250 problem of…
Chris Lambie-Hanson proved recently that for every function $ f:\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N} $ there is an $ \aleph_1 $-chromatic graph $ G $ of size $ 2^{\aleph_1} $ such that every $ (n+3) $-chromatic subgraph of $ G $ has at least $…
Let $\kappa$ be any regular cardinal. Assuming the existence of a huge cardinal above $\kappa$, we prove the consistency of $\binom{\kappa^{++}}{\kappa^+}\rightarrow\binom{\tau}{\kappa^+}$ for every ordinal $\tau<\kappa^{++}$. Likewise, we…
We prove that for any regular kappa and mu > kappa below the first fix point (lambda = aleph_lambda) above kappa, there is a graph with chromatic number > kappa, and mu^kappa nodes but every subgraph of cardinality < mu has chromatic number…
We deal with incompactness. Assume the existence of non-reflecting stationary set of cofinality kappa . We prove that one can define a graph G whose chromatic number is > kappa, while the chromatic number of every subgraph G' subseteq…
We present an elementary construction of an uncountably chromatic graph without uncountable, infinitely connected subgraphs.
The paper settles the problem of the consistency of the existence of a single universal graph between a strong limit singular and its power. Assuming that in a model of $\mathbf{GCH}$ $\kappa$ is supercompact and the cardinals $\theta <…
We prove several consistency results in choiceless set theory ZF+DC regarding countable chromatic numbers of various algebraic hypergraphs on Euclidean spaces.
In 1968, Galvin conjectured that an uncountable poset $P$ is the union of countably many chains if and only if this is true for every subposet $Q \subseteq P$ with size $\aleph_1$. In 1981, Rado formulated a similar conjecture that an…
A. Hajnal and P. Erd\H{o}s proved that a graph with uncountable chromatic number cannot avoid short cycles, it must contain for example $ C_4 $ (among other obligatory subgraphs). It was shown recently by D. T. Soukup that, in contrast of…
We describe a framework for proving consistency results about singular cardinals of arbitrary cofinality and their successors. This framework allows the construction of models in which the Singular Cardinals Hypothesis fails at a singular…
In a classical paper by Ben-David and Magidor, a model of set theory was exhibited in which $\aleph_{\omega+1}$ carries a uniform ultrafilter that is $\theta$-indecomposable for every uncountable cardinal $\theta<\aleph_\omega$. In this…
In this work, we continue the tradition initiated by Geschke, 2011 of viewing the uncountable Borel chromatic number of analytic graphs as cardinal invariants of the continuum. We show that various uncountable Borel chromatic numbers of…
We prove a strong dichotomy result for countably-infinite oriented graphs; that is, we prove that for all countably-infinite oriented graphs $G$, either (i) there is a countably-infinite tournament $K$ such that $G\not\subseteq K$, or (ii)…
We study the list-chromatic number and the coloring number of graphs, especially uncountable graphs. We show that the coloring number of a graph coincides with its list-chromatic number provided that the diamond principle holds. Under the…
An infinite graph is said to be highly connected if the induced subgraph on the complement of any set of vertices of smaller size is connected. We continue the study of weaker versions of Ramsey Theorem on uncountable cardinals asserting…
We prove that the list chromatic number of graphs satisfies singular compactness at strong limit singular cardinals.
