We also generalize the expansion property and prove that categorical precompact expansions grant upper bounds for Ramsey degrees. Moreover, we show under strict conditions, we can also compute big Ramsey degrees. We also apply our methodology to calculate the big and little Ramsey degrees of the objects in Age$(\\mathbf{S}(n))$ for all $n\\geq 2$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-02-26T19:16:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C55", "37B05", "03C50", "03E02", "18A22" ], "keywords": [ "categorical notion", "precompact expansions grant upper bounds", "categorical precompact expansions grant upper", "paper partition properties", "big ramsey degrees" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
