Countable ordinals and big Ramsey degrees (Q2043767)

Big Ramsey degrees were introduced in \textit{A. S. Kechris} et al. [Geom. Funct. Anal. 15, No. 1, 106--189 (2005; Zbl 1084.54014)]. The main result of the paper under review is that a countable ordinal \(\alpha\) has finite big Ramsey degrees if and only if \(\alpha < \omega^{\omega}\). For countable ordinals \(\alpha > \omega^{\omega}\) it is shown that all their big Ramsey degrees are infinite.
