Paris–Harrington theorem

In mathematical logic, the Paris–Harrington theorem states that a certain claim in Ramsey theory, namely the strengthened finite Ramsey theorem, which is expressible in Peano arithmetic, is not provable in this system. That Ramsey-theoretic claim is, however, provable in slightly stronger systems.
