摘要:

米利肯树定理是组合学中的一个深刻结果,它推广了该学科中的大量其他结果,最著名的是拉姆齐定理及其许多变体和后果。受Dobrinen的一个问题的启发,我们从可计算性理论的角度出发,开始了对美利肯树定理的研究。我们在这里的进步源于对Halpern-Laüchli定理的仔细分析,该定理表明它可以有效地进行(即,这是计算上的真实)。我们使用这一基础上的一个新的归纳证明米利肯的树定理,使我们能够衡量其有效性反过来。这是一个全面的分类米利肯树定理的可计算内容的主要成果。我们的分析也适用于几个著名的应用米利肯的树定理,即德夫林定理,Rado图的分割定理,和一个广义版本的所谓的树定理的丘布,赫斯特和McNicholl。这些都是拉姆齐定理对不同结构的某些扩展,即有理数、雷达图和完美二叉树。我们获得了一些新的结果,这些原则如何涉及到美利肯的树定理和彼此,在他们的可计算性理论和组合方面。我们再次确定熟悉的二分法之间的编码的停机问题或不基于实例的大小,但这是更微妙的,由于更复杂的底层结构,特别是在Devlin的定理的情况下。利用Zucker的大Ramsey结构的概念,我们还建立了Rado图定理和广义Chubb-Hirst-McNicholl树定理的新的结构Ramsey理论性质。

英文摘要:

Milliken's tree theorem is a deep result in combinatorics that generalizes a vast number of other results in the subject, most notably Ramsey's theorem and its many variants and consequences. Motivated by a question of Dobrinen, we initiate the study of Milliken's tree theorem from the point of view of computability theory. Our advance here stems from a careful analysis of the Halpern-Laüchli theorem which shows that it can be carried out effectively (i.e., that it is computably true). We use this as the basis of a new inductive proof of Milliken's tree theorem that permits us to gauge its effectivity in turn. The principal outcome of this is a comprehensive classification of the computable content of Milliken's tree theorem. We apply our analysis also to several well-known applications of Milliken's tree theorem, namely Devlin's theorem, a partition theorem for Rado graphs, and a generalized version of the so-called tree theorem of Chubb, Hirst, and McNicholl. These are all certain kinds of extensions of Ramsey's theorem for different structures, namely the rational numbers, the Rado graph, and perfect binary trees, respectively. We obtain a number of new results about how these principles relate to Milliken's tree theorem and to each other, in terms of both their computability-theoretic and combinatorial aspects. We identify again the familiar dichotomy between coding the halting problem or not based on the size of instance, but this is more subtle here owing to the more complicated underlying structures, particularly in the case of Devlin's theorem. We also establish new structural Ramsey-theoretic properties of the Rado graph theorem and the generalized Chubb-Hirst-McNicholl tree theorem using Zucker's notion of big Ramsey structure.
