We prove partition regularity of the configuration $x,y,x+y,y/x$ in a strong infinitary form that extends Hindman's Theorem. We study the related issue of partition regularity of configurations involving products of a degree one polynomial in $x$ with one in $y$, reducing the general problem to a handful of special cases.
We introduce the notion of asymptotic partition regularity for Diophantine equations. We show how this notion is at the core of almost all known negative results in the Ramsey theory of equations, and we use it to produce new ones, as in the case of Fermat-Catalan equations. The methods we use here are based on translating asymptotic partition regularity into the context of nonstandard extensions, via the notion of Archimedean equivalence classes of hypernaturals.
