  1. Sunflower (mathematics)

    File Sonnenblume 02 KMJ.jpg thumb right A mathematical sunflower can be pictured as a flower. The kernel of the sunflower is the brown part in the middle, and each set of the sunflower is the union of a petal and the kernel. In mathematics, a sunflower or system is a collection of sets whose pairwise intersection is constant, and called the kernel . The lemma , sunflower lemma , and sunflower conjecture give various conditions that imply the existence of a large sunflower in a given collection of sets. The original term for this concept was system . More recently the term sunflower , possibly introduced by harvtxt Deza Frankl 1981 , has been gradually replacing it. lemma The &Delta lemma is a combinatorics combinatorial set theoretic tool used in proofs to impose an upper bound on the size of a collection of pairwise incompatible elements in a forcing set theory forcing poset . It may for example be used as one of the ingredients in a proof showing that it is consistent with ZFC that the continuum hypothesis does not hold. A &Delta system W is a collection of sets whose pairwise intersection is constant. That is, there exists a fixed S called the kernel possibly empty such that for all A , B &isin   W with A &ne B , A   &cap   B S . The &Delta lemma states that every uncountable collection of finite sets contains an uncountable &Delta system. Sunflower lemma and conjecture harvtxt Erd s Rado 1960 loc p. 86 proved the sunflower lemma , stating that if a and b are positive integers then a collection of b a sup b 1 sup sets of cardinality at most b contains a sunflower with more than a sets. The sunflower conjecture is one of several variations of the conjecture of harv Erd s Rado 1960 loc p. 86 that the factor of b can be replaced by C sup b sup for some constant C .
