We show that the class of finite rooted binary plane trees is a Ramsey class (with respect to topological embeddings that map leaves to leaves). That is, for all such trees P,H and every natural number k there exists a tree T such that for every k-coloring of the (topological) copies of P in T there exists a (topological) copy H' of H in T such that all copies of P in H' have the same color. When the trees are represented by the so-called rooted triple relation, the result gives rise to a Ramsey class of relational structures with respect to induced substructures.
As we have mentioned in the previous subsection, any Ramsey class that is closed under taking substructures (and our Ramsey class @math is obviously closed under taking substructures) is an amalgamation class, and therefore there exists a unique countable homogeneous structure @math such that @math is exactly the class of all finite structures that embed into @math . The structure @math (i.e., the reduct of @math that only contains the rooted triple relation without an ordering on the domain) is well-known to model-theorists and in the theory of infinite permutation groups, and also has many explicit constructions; see e.g. @cite_4 @cite_5 . Its automorphism group is oligomorphic, 2-transitive, and 3-set-transitive, but not 3-transitive. The rooted triple relation @math is a @math -relation in the terminology of @cite_5 .

Let @math be a smooth scheme over an algebraically closed field @math of characteristic zero and @math a regular function, and write @math Crit @math , as a closed subscheme of @math . The motivic vanishing cycle @math is an element of the @math -equivariant motivic Grothendieck ring @math defined by Denef and Loeser math.AG 0006050 and Looijenga math.AG 0006220, and used in Kontsevich and Soibelman's theory of motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants, arXiv:0811.2435. We prove three main results: (a) @math depends only on the third-order thickenings @math of @math . (b) If @math is another smooth scheme, @math is regular, @math Crit @math , and @math is an embedding with @math and @math an isomorphism, then @math equals @math "twisted" by a motive associated to a principal @math -bundle defined using @math , where now we work in a quotient ring @math of @math . (c) If @math is an "oriented algebraic d-critical locus" in the sense of Joyce arXiv:1304.4508, there is a natural motive @math , such that if @math is locally modelled on Crit @math , then @math is locally modelled on @math . Using results from arXiv:1305.6302, these imply the existence of natural motives on moduli schemes of coherent sheaves on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold equipped with "orientation data", as required in Kontsevich and Soibelman's motivic Donaldson-Thomas theory arXiv:0811.2435, and on intersections of oriented Lagrangians in an algebraic symplectic manifold. This paper is an analogue for motives of results on perverse sheaves of vanishing cycles proved in arXiv:1211.3259. We extend this paper to Artin stacks in arXiv:1312.0090. Whereas formal category theory is classically considered within a @math -category, in this paper a double-dimensional approach is taken. More precisely we develop such theory within the setting of hypervirtual double categories, a notion extending that of virtual double category by adding cells with nullary target. [...] After this the notion of weak' Kan extension within a hypervirtual double category is considered, together with three strengthenings. [...] The notion of yoneda embedding is then considered in a hypervirtual double category, and compared to that of a good yoneda structure on a @math -category; the latter in the sense of Street-Walters and Weber. Conditions are given ensuring that a yoneda embedding @math defines @math as the free small cocompletion of @math , in a suitable sense. In the second half we consider formal category theory in the presence of algebraic structures. In detail: to a monad @math on a hypervirtual double category @math several hypervirtual double categories @math of @math -algebras are associated, [...]. This is followed by the study of the creation of, amongst others, left Kan extensions by the forgetful functors @math . The main motivation of this paper is the description of conditions ensuring that yoneda embeddings in @math lift along these forgetful functors, as well as ensuring that such lifted algebraic yoneda embeddings again define free small cocompletions, now in @math . As a first example we apply the previous to monoidal structures on categories, hence recovering Day convolution of presheaves and Im-Kelly's result on free monoidal cocompletion, as well as obtaining a "monoidal Yoneda lemma". In our LICS 2004 paper we introduced an approach to the study of the local structure of finite algebras and relational structures that aims at applications in the Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP). This approach involves a graph associated with an algebra @math or a relational structure A, whose vertices are the elements of @math (or A), the edges represent subsets of @math such that the restriction of some term operation of @math is ‘good’ on the subset, that is, act as an operation of one of the 3 types: semilattice, majority, or affine. In this paper we significantly refine and advance this approach. In particular, we prove certain connectivity and rectangularity properties of relations over algebras related to components of the graph connected by semilattice and affine edges. We also prove a result similar to 2-decomposition of relations invariant under a majority operation, only here we do not impose any restrictions on the relation. These results allow us to give a new, somewhat more intuitive proof of the bounded width theorem: the CSP over algebra @math has bounded width if and only if @math does not contain affine edges. Actually, this result shows that bounded width implies width (2,3). We also consider algebras with edges from a restricted set of types. In particular, it can be proved that type restrictions are preserved under the standard algebraic constructions. Finally, we prove that algebras without semilattice edges have few subalgebras of powers, that is, the CSP over such algebras is also polynomial time. Given a directed graph @math and a list @math of terminal pairs, the Directed Steiner Network problem asks for a minimum-cost subgraph of @math that contains a directed @math path for every @math . The special case Directed Steiner Tree (when we ask for paths from a root @math to terminals @math ) is known to be fixed-parameter tractable parameterized by the number of terminals, while the special case Strongly Connected Steiner Subgraph (when we ask for a path from every @math to every other @math ) is known to be W[1]-hard. We systematically explore the complexity landscape of directed Steiner problems to fully understand which other special cases are FPT or W[1]-hard. Formally, if @math is a class of directed graphs, then we look at the special case of Directed Steiner Network where the list @math of requests form a directed graph that is a member of @math . Our main result is a complete characterization of the classes @math resulting in fixed-parameter tractable special cases: we show that if every pattern in @math has the combinatorial property of being "transitively equivalent to a bounded-length caterpillar with a bounded number of extra edges," then the problem is FPT, and it is W[1]-hard for every recursively enumerable @math not having this property. This complete dichotomy unifies and generalizes the known results showing that Directed Steiner Tree is FPT [Dreyfus and Wagner, Networks 1971], @math -Root Steiner Tree is FPT for constant @math [Such 'y, WG 2016], Strongly Connected Steiner Subgraph is W[1]-hard [, SIAM J. Discrete Math. 2011], and Directed Steiner Network is solvable in polynomial-time for constant number of terminals [Feldman and Ruhl, SIAM J. Comput. 2006], and moreover reveals a large continent of tractable cases that were not known before.
