✦ Synopsis


We give a very short proof for the Kruskal-Katona theorem and Lovhsz's version of it: given (~) k-element sets there are at least (k~_l) (k -1)-element sets which are contained in at least one of the k-sets.

We present an analog of the well-known Kruskal-Katona theorem for the poset of subspaces of PG(n, 2) ordered by inclusion. For given k, (k < ) and m the problem is to find a family of size m in the set of -subspaces of PG(n, 2), containing the minimal number of k-subspaces. We introduce two lexicogr

Gallai and Milgram (1960) proved that a digraph with stability number ct is spanned by ct disjoint directed paths. Chen and Manalastas Jr (1983) proved that a strong digraph with stability number at most two is spanned by at most two consistent directed circuits. We slightly simplify the proof of
