The Stein-Lovász Theorem and Its Applications to Some Combinatorial arrays
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Stein-Lovász Theorem can be used to get existence results for some combinatorial problems using constructive methods rather than probabilistic methods. In this paper, we discuss applications of the Stein-Lovász Theorem to some combinatorial set systems and arrays, including perfect hash families, separating hash families, splitting systems, covering designs, lotto designs and ∆-free systems. We also compare some of the bounds obtained from the Stein-Lovász Theorem to those using the basic probabilistic method.

An extension of Stein-Lovász theorem and some of its applications
The Stein-Lovász theorem provides an algorithmic way to deal with the existence of certain good coverings, and thus offers bounds related to some combinatorial structures. An extension of the classical Stein-Lovász theorem for multiple coverings is given, followed by some applications for finding upper bounds of the sizes of (d, s out of r; z]-disjunct matrices and (k, m, c, n; z)selectors, res...
متن کاملFan-KKM Theorem in Minimal Vector Spaces and its Applications
In this paper, after reviewing some results in minimal space, some new results in this setting are given. We prove a generalized form of the Fan-KKM typetheorem in minimal vector spaces. As some applications, the open type of matching theorem and generalized form of the classical KKM theorem in minimal vector spaces are given.
متن کاملA new characterization for Meir-Keeler condensing operators and its applications
Darbo's fixed point theorem and its generalizations play a crucial role in the existence of solutions in integral equations. Meir-Keeler condensing operators is a generalization of Darbo's fixed point theorem and most of other generalizations are a special case of this result. In recent years, some authors applied these generalizations to solve several special integral equations and some of the...
متن کاملApplication of measures of noncompactness to infinite system of linear equations in sequence spaces
G. Darbo [Rend. Sem. Math. Univ. Padova, 24 (1955) 84--92] used the measure of noncompactness to investigate operators whose properties can be characterized as being intermediate between those of contraction and compact operators. In this paper, we apply the Darbo's fixed point theorem for solving infinite system of linear equations in some sequence spaces.
متن کاملFixed point theorem for non-self mappings and its applications in the modular space
In this paper, based on [A. Razani, V. Rako$check{c}$evi$acute{c}$ and Z. Goodarzi, Nonself mappings in modular spaces and common fixed point theorems, Cent. Eur. J. Math. 2 (2010) 357-366.] a fixed point theorem for non-self contraction mapping $T$ in the modular space $X_rho$ is presented. Moreover, we study a new version of Krasnoseleskii's fixed point theorem for $S+T$, where $T$ is a cont...
