Sperner property

Summary

A finite graded poset has the Sperner property when no antichain is larger than its largest rank level. Each rank level is an antichain, so the property says that the width of the poset equals the size of a largest level. Sperner's theorem is the statement that the lattice of subsets of a finite set has this property.
