摘要

For an integer $h\geq2$, an edge-ordered $h$-uniform hypergraph $H^<$ is an $h$-uniform hypergraph with a linear ordering of its hyperedges. For an integer $q \geq 1$, the edge-ordered Ramsey number $R_{\mathrm{edge}}(H^<;q)$ of $H^<$ is the smallest positive integer $N$ such that there exists an edge-ordered $h$-uniform hypergraph $G^<$ on $N$ vertices such that, for every $q$-coloring of the hyperedges of $G^<$, there is a monochromatic copy of $H^<$ in $G^<$ preserving the hyperedge order. In this note, we show that, for every edge-ordered $h$-uniform hypergraph $F^<$ on $n$ vertices with $m\geq1$ hyperedges, $R_{\mathrm{edge}}(F^<;q) \leq R_h(F;q)^{Cm^2}$ where $F$ is the underlying unordered hypergraph, $R_h(F;q)$ is its standard $q$-color Ramsey number, and $C=C(h,q)>0$ is a constant. For fixed $h\geq3$ and $q\geq2$, this shows that prescribing the hyperedge order does not require an increase in the tower height of the classical upper bound. It also settles a problem posed by Fox and Li (2020), and for $h=2$ gives the bound $2^{O(n^4\log n)}$, improving their bounds for every fixed $q \geq 3$.
