Poonen's strict-majority conjecture for union-closed families
Poonen's strict-majority conjecture for union-closed families
Let be a union-closed family of sets. A power set is a family of the form for some set . Poonen's conjecture. Unless is a power set, it contains an element that appears in strictly more than half of its sets.
This strengthens Frankl's conjecture by requiring a strict majority outside the power-set case. It is attributed in the source to Poonen and remains open.
