Abstract

An angle order is a partially ordered set whose points can be mapped into unbounded angular regions in the plane such that x is less than y in the partial order if and only if x's angular region is properly included in y's. The zero augmentation of a partially ordered set adds one point to the set that is less than all original points. We prove that there are finite angle orders whose augmentations are not angle orders. The proof makes extensive use of Ramsey theory.
