一个集合的子集的相交族的最大尺寸和

The maximum sum of sizes of cross-intersecting families of subsets of a set

Peter Borg, Carl Feghali

摘要:

集合的集合称为族。两个集合族$\mathcal{A}$和$\mathcal{B}$被称为交叉相交的,如果$\mathcal{A}$的每个成员都与$\mathcal{B}$的每个成员相交。对于任何两个整数$n$和$k$,以及$1 \leq k \leq n$,令${[n] \choose \leq k}$表示至多具有$k$元素的$[n] = \{1, \dots, n\}$子集族。证明了如果$\mathcal{A}$是${[n] \choose \leq r}$的非空子族,$\mathcal{B}$是${[n] \choose \leq s}$的非空子族,$r \leq s$,并且$\mathcal{A}$和$\mathcal{B}$是交叉相交的,那么\[|\mathcal{A}| + |\mathcal{B}| \leq 1 + \sum_{i=1}^s \left({n \choose i} - {n-r \choose i} \right),\]和等式成立,如果$\mathcal{A} = \{[r]\}$和$\mathcal{B}$是${[n] \choose \leq s}$中与$[r]$相交的集合族.

英文摘要:

A set of sets is called a family. Two families $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ of sets are said to be cross-intersecting if each member of $\mathcal{A}$ intersects each member of $\mathcal{B}$. For any two integers $n$ and $k$ with $1 \leq k \leq n$, let ${[n] \choose \leq k}$ denote the family of subsets of $[n] = \{1, \dots, n\}$ that have at most $k$ elements. We show that if $\mathcal{A}$ is a non-empty subfamily of ${[n] \choose \leq r}$, $\mathcal{B}$ is a non-empty subfamily of ${[n] \choose \leq s}$, $r \leq s$, and $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ are cross-intersecting, then \[|\mathcal{A}| + |\mathcal{B}| \leq 1 + \sum_{i=1}^s \left({n \choose i} - {n-r \choose i} \right),\] and equality holds if $\mathcal{A} = \{[r]\}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ is the family of sets in ${[n] \choose \leq s}$ that intersect $[r]$.
