Abstract

A strong coloring on a cardinal Κ is a function ƒ : [k]2 → Κ such that for every

A ⊆ κ of full size κ, every color γ < κ is attained by ƒ ⌈ [A]2 .

The symbol

asserts the existence of a strong coloring on .

We introduce the symbol

which asserts the existence of a coloring which is strong over a partition . A coloring f is strong over p if for every there is so that for every color is attained by .

We prove that whenever holds, also holds for an arbitrary finite partition p. Similarly, arbitrary finite p-s can be added to stronger symbols which hold in any model of ZFC. If , then and stronger symbols, like or , also hold for an arbitrary partition p to θ parts.

The symbols

hold for an arbitrary countable partition p under the Continuum Hypothesis and are independent over ZFC †¬ CH.
