Big Ramsey degrees and infinite languages
share
This paper investigates big Ramsey degrees of unrestricted relational structures in (possibly) infinite languages. While significant progress has been made in studying big Ramsey degrees, many classes of structures with finite small Ramsey degrees still lack an understanding of their big Ramsey degrees. We show that if there are only finitely many relations of every arity greater than one, then unrestricted relational structures have finite big Ramsey degrees, and give some evidence that this is tight. This is the first time that finiteness of big Ramsey degrees has been established for an infinite-language random structure. Our results represent an important step towards a better understanding of big Ramsey degrees for structures with relations of arity greater than two.
