[Banach] Abstract of a paper by V. Farmaki and S. Negrepontis

[Dale Alspach]

This is an announcement for the paper "Block combinatorics" by V. Farmaki
and S. Negrepontis.


Abstract: In this paper we extend the block combinatorics partition
theorems of Hindman and Milliken in the setting of the recursive system
of the block Schreier families (B^xi) consisting of families defined for
every countable ordinal xi.  Results contain (a) a block partition Ramsey
theorem for every countable ordinal xi (Hindman's theorem corresponding
to xi=1, and Milliken's theorem to xi a finite ordinal), (b) a countable
ordinal form of the block Nash-Williams partition theorem, and (c)
a countable ordinal block partition theorem for sets closed in the
infinite block analogue of Ellentuck's topology.
