We combine here Tao’s slice-rank bounding method and Gröbner basis techniques and apply it to the Erdős–Rado Sunflower Conjecture. Let 0≤k≤n\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${0\leq k\leq n}$$\end{document} be integers. We prove that if F\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$${\mathcal{F}}$$\end{document} is a k-uniform family of subsets of [n] without a sunflower with 3 petals, then |F|≤3n⌊n/3⌋.\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$|\mathcal{F}|\leq3 \left(\begin{array}{c} {n }\\ \lfloor n/3\rfloor \end{array}\right).$$\end{document}This result allows us to improve slightly a recent upper bound of Naslund and Sawin for the size of a sunflower-free family in 2[n].
