Abstract:

Assuming GCH, we prove that if $\kappa$ is a successor cardinal and $U$ is a uniform ultrafilter on $\kappa$, then $U \nrightarrow {(U,3)^2}$. The case $\kappa = {\omega _1}$ is an old result of Hajnal. Our proof makes use of several known results concerning nonregular, weakly normal and indecomposable ultrafilters, as well as some negative partition relations for uncountable ordinals.
