Statement. A finite Euclidean set is Ramsey when, for every positive integer , some dimension has the property that every map gives a monochromatic set congruent to . If the finite sets and are Ramsey, then
is Ramsey, with the usual Euclidean product metric. Repetition gives the same assertion for any finite number of factors.
Proof scope. This is an exact input from the earlier paper. Its complete canonical reconstruction is Theorem 20, with the finite compactness principle. The proof is linked rather than duplicated on this page. Moore applies the theorem to a Ramsey base and an affinely independent auxiliary set in Theorem 1.2.
