Abstract

Let κ be an uncountable cardinal and the edges of a complete graph with κ vertices be colored with ℵ0 colors. For the Erdős-Rado theorem implies that there is an infinite monochromatic subgraph. However, if , then it may be impossible to find a monochromatic triangle. This paper is concerned with the latter situation. We consider the types of colorings of finite subgraphs that must occur when . In particular, we are concerned with the case ℵ1κ ≤ ℵω.The study of these color patterns (known as identities) has a history that involves the existence of compactness theorems for two cardinal models [4]. When the graph being colored has size ℵ1, the identities that must occur ((ℵ1)) have been classified by Shelah [6]. If the graph has size greater than or equal to ℵω the identities that must occur ((ℵω)) have also been classified in [5]. This leaves open the question of how the sets (ℵm) (2 ≤ m < ω) fit between (ℵ1) and ⊆ (ℵω). Some progress in this direction has been made in the paper [2]. It is there shown that if ZFC is consistent then so is for each m < ω. The number of colors is fixed at ℵ0 as it is the natural place to start and the results here can be generalized to more colors. We first give some definitions and establish some notation.
