Abstract

For Xω, let [X]n denote the class of all n-element subsets of X. An infinite set Aω is called n-r-cohesive if for each computable function f: [ω]n → {0, 1} there is a finite set F such that f is constant on [A − F]n. We show that for each n > 2 there is no Πn0 set Aω which is n-r-cohesive. For n = 2 this refutes a result previously claimed by the authors, and for n ≥ 3 it answers a question raised by the authors.
