متن کاملAntichains and counterpoint dichotomies
We construct a special type of antichain (i.e., a family of subsets of a set, such that no subset is contained in another) using grouptheoretical considerations, and obtain an upper bound on the cardinality of such an antichain. We apply the result to bound the number of strong counterpoint dichotomies up to affine isomorphisms.
