Abstract
Let be an -element set. A set-pair system is a collection of pairs of disjoint subsets of . It is called skew Bollobás system if for all . The best possible inequality is established along with some more results of similar flavor.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Combinatorics is a high standard, international, bimonthly journal of pure mathematics, specializing in theories arising from combinatorial problems. The journal is primarily open to papers dealing with mathematical structures within combinatorics and/or establishing direct links between combinatorics and other branches of mathematics and the theories of computing. The journal includes full-length research papers on important topics.
