For an unweighted graph on $k$ terminals, Kratsch and Wahlstr\"om constructed
a vertex sparsifier with $O(k^3)$ vertices via the theory of representative
families on matroids. Since their breakthrough result in 2012, no improvement
upon the $O(k^3)$ bound has been found. In this paper, we interpret Kratsch and Wahlstr\"om's result through the lens
of Bollob\'as's Two-Families Theorem from extremal combinatorics. This new
perspective allows us to close the gap for directed acyclic graphs and obtain a
tight bound of $\Theta(k^2)$. Central to our approach is the concept of
skew-symmetry from extremal combinatorics, and we derive a similar theory for
the representation of skew-symmetric families that may have future
applications.

有向无环图中顶点切割稀疏器的紧界
对于在$ k $终端上的未加权图,Kratsch和Wahlstr \“ om通过拟阵的代表族理论构造了具有$ O(k ^ 3)$顶点的顶点稀疏器。自2012年取得突破以来,对已经找到了$ O(k ^ 3)$界。在本文中,我们通过极值组合论的Bollob's的二族定理来解释Kratsch和Wahlstr'om的结果。这种新的视角使我们能够缩小有向无环图的间隙,并获得$ \ Theta(k ^ 2)$的紧密边界。我们的方法的核心是来自极值组合器的偏斜对称性概念,并且我们推导了一个类似的理论来表示偏斜对称族,这些族可能会有未来的应用。
