Hypothesis: HR 17:
Ramsey's Theorem I: If \(A\) is an infinite set and the family of all 2 element subsets of \(A\) is partitioned into 2 sets \(X\) and \(Y\), then there is an infinite subset \(B\subseteq A\) such that all 2 element subsets of \(B\) belong to \(X\) or all 2 element subsets of \(B\) belong to \(Y\). (Also, see Form 325.), Jech [1973b], p 164 prob 11.20.
Conclusion: HR 125:
There does not exist an infinite, compact connected \(p\) space. (A \(p\) space is a \(T_2\) space in which the intersection of any well orderable family of open sets is open.)
List of models where hypothesis is true and the conclusion is false:
| Name | Statement |
|---|---|
| \(\cal N3\) Mostowski's Linearly Ordered Model | \(A\) is countably infinite;\(\precsim\) is a dense linear ordering on \(A\) without first or lastelements (\((A,\precsim) \cong (\Bbb Q,\le)\)); \(\cal G\) is the group of allorder automorphisms on \((A,\precsim)\); and \(S\) is the set of all finitesubsets of \(A\) |
