KURSCHAK 1994 Problem 3

    Consider the sets A1,A2,…,AnA_1,A_2,\dots,A_n . Set AkA_k is composed of kk disjoint intervals on the real axis ( k=1,2,…,nk=1,2,\dots,n ). Prove that from the intervals contained by these sets, one can choose ⌊n+12⌋\left\lfloor\frac{n+1}2\right\rfloor intervals such that they belong to pairwise different sets AkA_k , and no two of these intervals have a common point.
