Abstract:

The following dichotomy is established for any pair \(\mathcal{F}\), \(\mathcal{G}\) of hereditary families of finite subsets of \(\mathbb{N}\): Given \(N\), an infinite subset of \(\mathbb{N}\), there exists \(M\) an infinite subset of \(N\) so that either \(\mathcal{G} \cap [M]^{< \infty} \subset \mathcal{F}\), or \(\mathcal{F} \cap [M]^{< \infty} \subset \mathcal{G}\), where \([M]^{< \infty}\) denotes the set of all finite subsets of \(M\).
