SCHWEITZER 2008 Problem 2
Let t ≥ 3 t\ge 3 t ≥ 3 be an integer, and for 1 ≤ i < j ≤ t 1\le i <j\le t 1 ≤ i < j ≤ t let A i j = A j i A_{ij}=A_{ji} A ij = A j i be an arbitrary subset of an n n n -element set X X X . Prove that there exist 1 ≤ i < j ≤ t 1\le i < j\le t 1 ≤ i < j ≤ t for which ∣ ( X \ A i j ) ∪ ⋃ k ≠ i , j ( A i k ∩ A j k ) ∣ ≥ t − 2 2 t − 2 n \left| \left( X\,\backslash A_{ij}\right) \cup \bigcup_{k\neq i,j}\left( A_{ik}\cap A_{jk}\right) \right| \ge \frac{t-2}{2t-2}n ( X \ A ij ) ∪ k = i , j ⋃ ( A ik ∩ A j k ) ≥ 2 t − 2 t − 2 n (translated by Miklós Maróti)
