AbstractA family of sets is said to be intersecting if any two sets in the family have non-empty intersection. In 1973, Erdős raised the problem of determining the maximum possible size of a union of r different intersecting families of k-element subsets of an n-element set, for each triple of integers (n, k, r). We make progress on this problem, proving that for any fixed integer r ⩾ 2 and for any $$k \le ({1 \over 2} - o(1))n$$, if X is an n-element set, and $${\cal F} = {\cal F}_1 \cup {\cal F}_2 \cup \cdots \cup {\cal F}_r $$, where each $$ {\cal F}_i $$ is an intersecting family of k-element subsets of X, then $$|{\cal F}| \le \left( {\matrix{n \cr k \cr } } \right) - \left( {\matrix{{n - r} \cr k \cr } } \right)$$, with equality only if $${\cal F} = \{ S \subset X:|S| = k,\;S \cap R \ne \emptyset \} $$ for some R ⊂ X with |R| = r. This is best possible up to the size of the o(1) term, and improves a 1987 result of Frankl and Füredi, who obtained the same conclusion under the stronger hypothesis $$k < (3 - \sqrt 5 )n/2$$, in the case r = 2. Our proof utilizes an isoperimetric, influence-based method recently developed by Keller and the authors.

AbstractA family of sets is intersecting if no two of its members are disjoint, and has the Erdős–Ko–Rado property (or is EKR) if each of its largest intersecting subfamilies has non-empty intersection.Denote by ${{\cal H}_k}(n,p)$ the random family in which each k-subset of {1, …, n} is present with probability p, independent of other choices. A question first studied by Balogh, Bohman and Mubayi asks: \begin{equation} {\rm{For what }}p = p(n,k){\rm{is}}{{\cal H}_k}(n,p){\rm{likely to be EKR}}? \end{equation} Here, for fixed c < 1/4, and $k \lt \sqrt {cn\log n} $ we give a precise answer to this question, characterizing those sequences p = p(n, k) for which \begin{equation} {\mathbb{P}}({{\cal H}_k}(n,p){\rm{is EKR}}{\kern 1pt} ) \to 1{\rm{as }}n \to \infty . \end{equation}

Insight Into

The maximal numerical range $W_0(A)$ of a matrix $A$ is the (regular) numerical range $W(B)$ of its compression $B$ onto the eigenspace $\mathcal L$ of $A^*A$ corresponding to its maximal eigenvalue. So, always $W_0(A)\subseteq W(A)$. Conditions under which $W_0(A)$ has a non-empty intersection with the boundary of $W(A)$ are established, in particular, when $W_0(A)=W(A)$. The set $W_0(A)$ is also described explicitly for matrices unitarily similar to direct sums of $2$-by-$2$ blocks, and some insight into the behavior of $W_0(A)$ is provided when $\mathcal L$ has codimension one.

Using Data

Gravitational events on IGEC data are marked with their detection time td. Although td takes into account phase shifts due to hardware and software, it could be statistically retarded or anticipated by noise with respect to the arrival time ta of a gravitational wave. Then we can estimate a time interval Δ for each event so that we can consider the ta of the event equally likely in Δ. Consequently we can define a n-fold coincidence as a n-tuple of events whose associated time intervals have a non-empty intersection. Using this definition and taking into account some time interval properties we show that a n-fold coincidence set can be computed by an appropriate selection of events from the 2-fold coincidence sets. Furthermore, we stress that a data base management system (DBMS) is a very effective tool to store IGEC data (i.e. events) and to implement n-fold coincidence analysis based on the above considerations. Finally we propose to use a DBMS to build a database of both events and n-fold coincidence analysis data in order to have an efficient and powerful tool for data retrieval and further analysis.

Unit Disks

Let A and B be two sets of n resp. m disjoint unit disks in the plane, with m ≥ n. We consider the problem of finding a translation or rigid motion of A that maximizes the total area of overlap with B. The function describing the area of overlap is quite complex, even for combinatorially equivalent translations and, hence, we turn our attention to approximation algorithms. We give deterministic (1 - ∊)-approximation algorithms for translations and for rigid motions, which run in O((nm/∊2) log (m/∊)) and O((n2m2/∊3) log m)) time, respectively. For rigid motions, we can also compute a (1 - ∊)-approximation in O((m2n4/3Δ1/3/∊3) log n log m) time, where Δ is the diameter of set A. Under the condition that the maximum area of overlap is at least a constant fraction of the area of A, we give a probabilistic (1 - ∊)-approximation algorithm for rigid motions that runs in O((m2/∊4) log 2(m/∊) log m) time and succeeds with high probability. Our results generalize to the case where A and B consist of possibly intersecting disks of different radii, provided that (i) the ratio of the radii of any two disks in A ∪ B is bounded, and (ii) within each set, the maximum number of disks with a non-empty intersection is bounded.

Longest Paths

It is shown that, for every integer v < 7, there is a connected graph in which some v longest paths have empty intersection, but any v – 1 longest paths have a vertex in common. Moreover, connected graphs having seven or five minimal sets of longest paths (longest cycles) with empty intersection are presented. A 26-vertex 2-connected graph whose longest paths have empty intersection is exhibited.

AbstractAssume GCH. Let κ, μ, Σ be cardinals, with κ infinite. Let be a family consisting of λ pairwise almost disjoint subsets of Σ each of size κ, whose union is Σ. In this note it is shown that for each μ with 1 ≤ μ ≤min(λ, Σ), there is a “large” almost disjoint family of μ-sized subsets of Σ, each member of having non-empty intersection with at least μ members of the family .
