It is consistent for every 1 less than or equal to n < w that 2w = w(n
) and there is a function F : [w(n)](<w) --> w such that every finite
set can be written in at most 2(n) - 1 ways as the union of two distin
ct monocolored sets. If GCH holds, for every such coloring there isa f
inite set that can be written at least [GRAPHICS] ways as the union of
two sets with the same color.
