摘要

Given natural numbers \(k\le s\le n\) k s n , we ask: what is the minimal VC-dimension of a family \(\mathcal {F}\) F of s-subsets of [n] that covers all k-subsets of [n]? We first show that for sufficiently large n this number is always k, and construct families which give a lower bound for the actual growth of this stabilization point.
