Scaling invariance of homogeneous partition regularity
ID: scaling-invariance-of-homogeneous-partition-regularity
For any positive integer , a homogeneous rational matrix is partition regular over if and only if it is partition regular over . Pull a colouring of back along and scale the resulting solution. Conversely, restrict a colouring of all positive integers to . The argument depends on homogeneity and does not automatically extend to inhomogeneous equations or prescribed distinctness conditions.
