The Van der Waerden number $W(k,r)$ denotes the smallest $n$ such that whenever $[n]$ is $r$–colored there exists a monochromatic arithmetic progression of length $k$. Similarly, the Hilbert cube number $h(k,r)$ denotes the smallest $n$ such that whenever $[n]$ is $r$–colored there exists a monochromatic affine $k$–cube, that is, a set of the form$$\left\{x_0 + \sum_{b \in B} b : B \subseteq A\right\}$$ for some $|A|=k$ and $x_0 \in \mathbb{Z}$. We show the following relation between the… Expand

This recurrence gives the lower bound w ( r, p + 1) > p r − 1 2 p when r ≤ p, which generalizes Berlekamp's theorem on 2-colorings, and gives the best known bound for a large interval of r. Expand

Hilbert needed this lemma in connection with certain results on the irreducibility of rational functions and never pursued the combinatorial directions to which it pointed, but others did, and in 1974, Hindman proved the much stronger result that in any partition of all the positive integers into finitely many classes, some class must contain an infinite projective cube.
