The determination of the largest size of any matching family in Zmn, where Zm is the ring of integers modulo m, is an interesting problem. In this paper, we show an upper bound of O ((pq)0.625n+0.125) for the size of any matching family in Zpqn, where p and q are two distinct primes. Our bound is valid when n is a constant, p → ∞, and p/q → 1. Our result improves an upper bound of Dvir and coworkers. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/101267 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/16778 |
