An (r;w; d) -cover-free family (CFF) is a family of subsets of a finite set such that the intersection of any r members of the family contains at least d elements that are not in the union of any other w members. The minimum number of…

An $(r,w;d)$ cover-free family $(CFF)$ is a family of subsets of a finite set such that the intersection of any $r$ members of the family contains at least $d$ elements that are not in the union of any other $w$ members. The minimum number…

Roughly speaking, an $(n,(r,s))$-Cover Free Family (CFF) is a small set of $n$-bit strings such that: "in any $d:=r+s$ indices we see all patterns of weight $r$". CFFs have been of interest for a long time both in discrete mathematics as…

A pair of families $(\cF,\cG)$ is said to be \emph{cross-Sperner} if there exists no pair of sets $F \in \cF, G \in \cG$ with $F \subseteq G$ or $G \subseteq F$. There are two ways to measure the size of the pair $(\cF,\cG)$: with the sum…

Let ${\cal F}$ be a set of blocks of a $t$-set $X$. $(X,{\cal F})$ is called $(w,r)$-cover-free family ($(w,r)-$CFF) provided that, the intersection of any $w$ blocks in ${\cal F}$ is not contained in the union of any other $r$ blocks in…

An independent set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of pairwise non-adjacent vertices in $G$. A family $\mathcal{F}$ of independent sets in $G$ is called a $k$-independence covering family if for every independent set $I$ in $G$ of size at most…

A fair dominating set in a graph $G$ (or FD-set) is a dominating set $S$ such that all vertices not in $S$ are dominated by the same number of vertices from $S$; that is, every two vertices not in $S$ have the same number of neighbors in…

For a property $\Gamma$ and a family of sets $\cF$, let $f(\cF,\Gamma)$ be the size of the largest subfamily of $\cF$ having property $\Gamma$. For a positive integer $m$, let $f(m,\Gamma)$ be the minimum of $f(\cF,\Gamma)$ over all…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\mathcal{F}$ a family of graphs. Define $\alpha_{\mathcal{F}}(G)$ as the maximum order of any induced subgraph of $G$ that belongs to the family $\mathcal{F}$. For the family $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs with…

A set system $\mathcal{F}$ is $t$-\textit{intersecting}, if the size of the intersection of every pair of its elements has size at least $t$. A set system $\mathcal{F}$ is $k$-\textit{Sperner}, if it does not contain a chain of length…

The smallest number of cliques, covering all edges of a graph $ G $, is called the (edge) clique cover number of $ G $ and is denoted by $ cc(G) $. It is an easy observation that for every line graph $ G $ with $ n $ vertices, $cc(G)\leq n…

A family of sets is called $r$-\emph{cover free} if no set in the family is contained in the union of $r$ (or less) other sets in the family. A $1$-cover free family is simply an antichain with respect to set inclusion. Thus, Sperner's…

The two part Sperner theorem of Katona and Kleitman states that if $X$ is an $n$-element set with partition $X_1 \cup X_2$, and $\cF$ is a family of subsets of $X$ such that no two sets $A, B \in \cF$ satisfy $A \subset B$ (or $B \subset…

Cover-free families are set systems used as solutions for a large variety of problems, and in particular, problems where we deal with $n$ elements and want to identify $d$ invalid ones among them by performing only $t$ tests ($t \leq n$).…

Let $H$ be a graph with maximum degree $d$, and let $d'\ge 0$. We show that for some $c>0$ depending on $H,d'$, and all integers $n\ge 0$, there are at most $c^n$ unlabelled simple $d$-connected $n$-vertex graphs with maximum degree at most…

A family $\cF\subseteq 2^{[n]}$ of sets is said to be $l$-trace $k$-Sperner if for any $l$-subset $L \subset [n]$ the family $\cF|_L=\{F|_L:F \in \cF\}=\{F \cap L: F \in \cF\}$ is $k$-Sperner, i.e. does not contain any chain of length…

Given a set $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs, a graph $G$ is $\mathcal{F}$-free if $G$ does not contain any member of $\mathcal{F}$ as an induced subgraph. Barrus, Kumbhat, and Hartke [M. D. Barrus, M. Kumbhat, and S. G. Hartke, Graph classes…

The crown $\Oh_{2t}$ is a height-2 poset whose Hasse diagram is a cycle of length $2t$. A family $\F$ of subsets of $[n]:=\{1,2..., n\}$ is {\em $\Oh_{2t}$-free} if $\Oh_{2t}$ is not a weak subposet of $(\F,\subseteq)$. Let…

A graph $G$ is \emph{unstable} if its canonical double cover CDC$(G)$ has more automorphisms than Aut$(G)\times \mathbb{Z}_2$. A related problem asks when two non-isomorphic graphs share the same CDC. We unify both via \emph{lifting} 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.…
