The non-spherical obstruction conjecture for Euclidean Ramsey sets
The non-spherical obstruction conjecture for Euclidean Ramsey sets
Let be a set, and call it non-spherical if it is not contained in the surface of a sphere of any dimension. Write for the relevant -point line configuration, and write when there is a two-colouring of containing neither a monochromatic copy of in the first colour nor a monochromatic copy of in the second colour. Non-spherical obstruction conjecture. For every non-spherical set , there exists a natural number such that
for all . This would establish the difficult converse direction of the proposed Ramsey characterisation for the important class of non-spherical sets; the source presents it as a first step toward the preceding conjecture.
