关于Kleitman猜想的一些结果

On Kleitman's Conjecture

Jonathan Cary

AI总结:

本文通过离散上同调和凸优化技术,重新表述并研究了Kleitman关于最大相交子族向量的猜想。

摘要:

Chvátal猜想,在有限子集封闭集族的最大相交子族中,星形族是最大的。Kleitman后来加强了Chvátal的猜想,定义了由$2^{[n]}$自由生成的向量空间上的一个偏序,并指出$2^{[n]}$的每个最大相交子族的向量都大于星形族的凸组合。我们利用离散立方体的上同调重新表述了Kleitman的猜想,并使用凸优化技术对其进行研究。

英文摘要:

Chvátal conjectured that amongst the largest intersecting subfamilies of a finite subset-closed family of sets is a star. Kleitman later strengthened Chvátal's conjecture, defining a partial ordering on the vector space freely generated by $2^{[n]}$ and suggesting that the vector of every maximal intersecting subfamily of $2^{[n]}$ is bigger than a convex combination of stars. We restate Kleitman's conjecture in terms of the cochain complex of the discrete cube, describing it as the optimization of a convex objective. We examine the pseudoinverse of the codifferential, along with its relation to monotonicity, through which we recover the Harris-Kleitman inequality and give a generalization of a theorem of Frankl and Kupavskii on perfect matchings in superset-closed families. We show level families to satisfy Kleitman's conjecture, providing explicit cochains. We further show maximal intersecting families in the union of two stars and nonnegative threshold families to satisfy Kleitman's conjecture. We close with several strengthenings of the conjecture and related open problems.
