Erdős–Frankl–Füredi conjecture on the threshold for nontrivial cover-free families
Erdős–Frankl–Füredi conjecture on the threshold for nontrivial cover-free families
Let be the maximum cardinality of a -cover-free family over an -element underlying set. Let be the minimum such that there exists a -cover-free family with .
Erdős–Frankl–Füredi conjecture.
or, in the stronger form,
This conjecture concerns the smallest ground-set size at which a -cover-free family can have more members than the size of its ground set. Its asymptotic form is closely related to determining the transition in the extremal function and to group testing; the source does not indicate a resolution.
