چکیده

We show that the subgroup lattice of any finite group satisfies Frankl’s UnionClosed Conjecture. We show the same for all lattices with a modular coatom, a family which includes all supersolvable and dually semimodular lattices. A common technical result used to prove both may be of some independent interest.

Frankl's Conjecture for a subclass of semimodular lattices

 In this paper, we prove Frankl's Conjecture for an upper semimodular lattice $L$ such that $|J(L)setminus A(L)| leq 3$, where $J(L)$ and $A(L)$ are the set of join-irreducible elements and the set of atoms respectively. It is known that the class of planar lattices is contained in the class of dismantlable lattices and the class of dismantlable lattices is contained in the class of lattices ha...

Remarks on Frankl's conjecture

First a few reformulations of Frankl’s conjecture are given, in terms of reduced families or matrices, or analogously in terms of lattices. These lead naturally to a stronger conjecture with a neat formulation which might be easier to attack than Frankl’s. To this end we prove an inequality which might help in proving the stronger conjecture.

An inequality for the sizes of prime filters of finite distributive lattices

Let L be a finite distributive lattice, and let J(L) denote the set of all join-irreducible elements of L. Set j (L) = IJ(Z)l. For each a C J(L), let u(a) denote the number of elements in the prime filter {x C L: x >~a}. Our main theorem is Theorem 1. For any finite distributive lattice L, 4 "(a) ~>j(L)41q ,'2. aEJ(L) The base 4 here can most likely be replaced by a smaller number, but it canno...

On averaging Frankl's conjecture for large union-closed-sets

Let F be a union-closed family of subsets of an m-element set A. Let n = |F| ≥ 2 and for a ∈ A let s(a) denote the number of sets in F that contain a. Frankl’s conjecture from 1979, also known as the union-closed sets conjecture, states that there exists an element a ∈ A with n − 2s(a) ≤ 0. Strengthening a result of Gao and Yu [7] we verify the conjecture for the particular case when m ≥ 3 and ...

On the Scope of Averaging for Frankl's Conjecture

Let F be a union-closed family of subsets of an m-element set A. Let n = |F| ≥ 2. For b ∈ A let w(b) denote the number of sets in F containing b minus the number of sets in F not containing b. Frankl’s conjecture from 1979, also known as the union-closed sets conjecture, states that there exists an element b ∈ A with w(b) ≥ 0. The present paper deals with the average of the w(b), computed over ...
