Transformations of the transfinite plane

Logic 2021-07-01 v3

Abstract

We study the existence of transformations of the transfinite plane that allow one to reduce Ramsey-theoretic statements concerning uncountable Abelian groups into classical partition relations for uncountable cardinals. To exemplify: we prove that for every inaccessible cardinal κ\kappa, if κ\kappa admits a stationary set that does not reflect at inaccessibles, then the classical negative partition relation κ[κ]κ2\kappa\nrightarrow[\kappa]^2_\kappa implies that for every Abelian group (G,+)(G,+) of size κ\kappa, there exists a map f:GGf:G\rightarrow G such that, for every XGX\subseteq G of size κ\kappa and every gGg\in G, there exist xyx\neq y in XX such that f(x+y)=gf(x+y)=g.
