A theorem of R. Radó (see in [2]) says that if the edges of the countably infinite complete graph K are colored with r colors then the vertices of K can be covered by at most r (finite or one-way infinite) vertex-disjoint monochromatic paths. Edge-coloring theorems are usually extended from finite to infinite, however, in the case of Radó’s theorem it seems natural to look for finite versions.
