Abstract:
Characteristic earlier results were of the form {\rm CON}(2^{\aleph_0} \to [\lambda]_{n,2}^2), with 2^{\aleph_0} an ex-large cardinality so in the best case the first weakly Mahlo cardinal.Characteristic new results are {\rm CON }\big( (2^{\aleph_0} = \aleph_m) + \aleph_{\ell} \to [\aleph_k]_{n,2}^2 \big), where k < \ell < m. So we improve in three respects: the continuum may be small (e.g. not a Mahlo weakly inaccessible), we use no large cardinal, and the cardinals \lambda involved are <2^{\aleph_0}.
