A sunflower with $r$ petals is a collection of $r$ sets over a ground set $X$ such that every element in $X$ is in no set, every set, or exactly one set. Erd\H{o}s and Rado \cite{er} showed that a family of sets of size $n$ contains a…

A sunflower is a collection of distinct sets such that the intersection of any two of them is the same as the common intersection $C$ of all of them, and $|C|$ is smaller than each of the sets. A longstanding conjecture due to Erd\H{o}s and…

A collection of $k$ sets is said to form a $k$-sunflower, or $\Delta$-system, if the intersection of any two sets from the collection is the same, and we call a family of sets $\mathcal{F}$ sunflower-free if it contains no sunflowers.…

A sunflower is a collection of sets $\{U_1,\ldots, U_n\}$ such that the pairwise intersection $U_i\cap U_j$ is the same for all choices of distinct $i$ and $j$. We study sunflowers of convex open sets in $\mathbb R^d$, and provide a…

Let $f(k,r,s)$ stand for the least number so that if $\cal F$ is an arbitrary $k$-uniform, $L$-intersecting set system, where $|L|=s$, and $\cal F$ has more than $f(k,r,s)$ elements, then $\cal F$ contains a sunflower with $r$ petals. We…

We combine here Tao's slice-rank bounding method and Gr\"obner basis techniques and apply here to the Erd\H{o}s-Rado Sunflower Conjecture. Let $\frac{3k}{2}\leq n\leq 3k$ be integers. We prove that if $\mbox{$\cal F$}$ be a $k$-uniform…

We introduce \emph{moonflowers}, a weaker analogue of sunflowers. A family of sets $S_1,\ldots,S_k$ is a $k$-moonflower if each set $S_i$ contains at least one element that is absent from all the others. We study the extremal problem of…

For a family $\mathcal{H} \subseteq \binom{[n]}{k}$, a subset $\{A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_m\} \subseteq \mathcal{H}$ is called a \textit{matching} of size~$m$ if the sets $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_m$ are pairwise disjoint. The \textit{matching…

Alon, Shpilka and Umans considered the following version of usual sunflower-free subset: a subset $\mbox{$\cal F$}\subseteq \{1,\ldots ,D\}^n$ for $D>2$ is sunflower-free if for every distinct triple $x,y,z\in \mbox{$\cal F$}$ there exists…

A sunflower with $r$ petals is a collection of $r$ sets so that the intersection of each pair is equal to the intersection of all of them. Erd\H{o}s and Rado proved the sunflower lemma: for any fixed $r$, any family of sets of size $w$,…

A sunflower with p petals consists of p sets whose pairwise intersections are identical. The goal of the sunflower problem is to find the smallest r=r(p,k) such that any family of r^k distinct k-element sets contains a sunflower with p…

Sunflowers, or $\Delta$-systems, are a fundamental concept in combinatorics introduced by Erd\H{o}s and Rado in their paper: {\em Intersection theorems for systems of sets}, J. Lond. Math. Soc. (1) {\bf 35} (1960), 85--90. A sunflower is a…

A $t$-intersecting constant dimension subspace code $C$ is a set of $k$-dimensional subspaces in a projective space PG(n,q), where distinct subspaces intersect in a $t$-dimensional subspace. A classical example of such a code is the…

We demonstrate the truth of the sunflower conjecture by showing that a family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets each of cardinality at most $m$ includes a $k$-sunflower, if $|\mathcal{F}| > ( c k )^{2m}$ for a constant $c>0$ independent of $m$ and $k$,…

A collection of distinct sets is called a sunflower if the intersection of any pair of sets equals the common intersection of all the sets. Sunflowers are fundamental objects in extremal set theory with relations and applications to many…

We show that a family $\mathcal{F}$ of sets each of cardinality $m \in \mathbb{Z}_{>2}$ includes a $k$-sunflower if $ |\mathcal{F}| \ge \left( \frac{c k^2 \ln m}{\ln \ln m} \right)^m$ for some constant $c>0$, where $k$-sunflower means a…

A sunflower with $k$ petals, or $k$-sunflower, is a family of $k$ sets every two of which have a common intersection. Known since 1960, the sunflower conjecture states that a family ${\mathcal F}$ of sets each of cardinality $m$ includes a…

We study sunflowers within the context of finitely generated substructures of ultrahomogeneous structures. In particular, we look at bounds on how large a set system is needed to guarantee the existence of sunflowers of a given size. We…

A family of $r$ distinct sets $\{A_1,\ldots, A_r\}$ is an $r$-sunflower if for all $1 \leqslant i < j \leqslant r$ and $1 \leqslant i' < j' \leqslant r$, we have $A_i \cap A_j = A_{i'} \cap A_{j'}$. Erd\H{o}s and Rado conjectured in 1960…

Robust sunflowers are a generalization of combinatorial sunflowers that have applications in monotone circuit complexity, DNF sparsification, randomness extractors, and recent advances on the Erd\H{o}s-Rado sunflower conjecture. The recent…
