## A dual expression for the thickness of a family of sets is given. The thickness is a numerical characteristic of families of sets introduced in LeSanovsky and Ptak (1986). The dual expression is based on a simple combinatorial minimax result.

The present paper describes an algorithm for constructing families of k-independent subsets & of {1,2, . . . , n} with &I >2ck", where c, = d/(k -1)2& and d is a certain constant. The algorithm has a polynomial complexity with respect to the size of the family constructed.
