The range of the function is then called a &#8220;rainbow set&#8221; (the &#8220;colors&#8221; being the sets). There are two types of conditions that are usually imposed on the function: either the domain should be large and the range small, or that the domain in small and the range large. The classical case of the first type is Hall&#8217;s marriage theorem, where all men are to be married, and the function is supposed to be injective, a classical case of the second type is the Lov&#8217;\\asz-Barany colorful Caratheodory theorem, in which the range should contain a given vector in its convex hull. Results in the first are usually Hall-like, meaning &#8220;cooperative&#8221; &#8211; if the union of every k sets is large (in terms of k), then there exists a choice function with &#8220;small&#8221; range. In results around the second type each of the sets is required to be large, individually.  We show that this is not divine decree: there are Hall-like theorems also for the second family.<\/p>\n<p>Tea will be served before the talk (at 13:50).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Given a family of sets, a partial choice function chooses an element from some of them.
