Abstract

Infinite combinatorics has become an essential tool for handling a significant number of problems in Analysis, Topology and Set Theory. The central result in these applications is a theorem of P. Erdös and R. Rado [P. Erdös, R. Rado, Intersection theorems for systems of sets, J. London Math. Soc. 35 (1960), 85-90, and Intersection theorems for systems of sets II, ibid. 44 (1969), 467-479]. In this paper, a measure-theoretic version of the classical Erdös-Rado theorem on \Delta-systems is proved, and appplications to the study of infinite dimensional Banach spaces are given.
