Exponential patterns in arithmetic Ramsey theory

Exponential patterns in arithmetic Ramsey theory

We show that for every finite colouring of the natural numbers there exist $a,b \gt 1$ such that the triple $\{a,b,a^b\}$ is monochromatic. We go on to show the partition regularity of a much richer class of patterns involving exponentiation. For example,
