A Nice Example Related to the Frankl Conjecture
Updates: 1. Peter Frankl brought to my attention that the very same example appeared in a paper by Dynkin and Frankl “Extremal sets of subsets satisfying conditions induced by a graph“. 2. Sam Hopkins gave a lovely reference to Ravi … Continue reading
Frankl’s Conjecture for Large Families: Ilan Karpas’ Proof
Frankl’s conjecture asserts that a for every finite family of of finite sets that is closed under union, there is an element that belongs to at least half the sets in the family. We mentioned the problem in our very … Continue reading
Ilan Karpas: Frankl’s Conjecture for Large Families
Frankl’s conjecture Frankl’s conjecture is the following: Let be a finite family of finite subsets of which is closed under union, namely, if then also . Then there exists an element which belongs to at least half the sets in . … Continue reading
