On a generalisation of the EKR theorem

Let $n > k >t$ be positive integers, and let us assume $2k \leqslant n$. We denote the set of $k$-subsets of $[n]$ by $\mathcal{F}$. Let $C_1\subseteq \mathcal{F}$ be such that any two elements ...

Turán density of hypergraphs with very few edges

As usual, for an $r$-uniform hypergraph $G$, denote by $ex_r(n,G)$ the maximum number of edges an $r$-uniform, $G$-free hypergraph on $n$ vertices can have, and let $\lim \frac{ex_r(n,G)}{\binom nr}\...

Coloring of a graph representing the power set

For a positive integer $n$, let $\mathcal{P}$ be the power set of $[n]$. Consider the graph $G$ with $\mathcal{P}$ as its vertex set, and, for $S_1,S_2 \in \mathcal{P}$, the edge $(S_1,S_2)$ exists ...

Maximal number of perfect matchings that pairwise form a Hamiltonian cycle

Definition: Let $MH(n)$ be the maximal number of perfect matchings (1-regular graphs) on $n$ vertices where the union of any two perfect matchings is a Hamiltonian cycle. Question: Is it true that $MH(...

Given k, what is the minimum n such that n choose n/2 is greater than k? [closed]

I'm not an expert in combinatorics, but it sometimes comes up in my research with students in computer science (which is already pretty far away from my speciality of abstract homotopy theory). I just ...
