Abstract

In this talk, we will introduce the flower base method toward solving a problem involving what we call “C-weighted diversity”. Beginning with a few fundamental problems of extremal set theory, most notably that of Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado, we hope to contextualize where this current problem fits in. Following this, we show the flower base in action. Though the talk will be technical at times, there will be fun pictures along the way.
