Counter-example 1:
$ U = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14\} $
$ S_1 = \{1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14\} $
$ S_2 = \{3, 5, 9, 11\} $
$ S_3 = \{7, 13\} $
$ S_4 = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7\} $
$ S_5 = \{8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14\} $
There is an optimal solution: $ S_4, S_5 $ (2 subsets).
A greedy algorithm will choose $ S_1, S_2, S_3 $ (3 subsets):
1. $ S_1 $ since it contains 8 uncovered elements (more than any other subset)
2. $ S_2 $ since it then contains 4 uncovered elements (more than any other subset)
3. $ S_3 $ since it then contains 2 uncovered elements (more than any other subset)
Counter-example 2:
$ U = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\} $
$ S_1 = \{1, 2, 3\} $
$ S_2 = \{1, 2, 4\} $
$ S_3 = \{4, 5\} $
There is an optimal solution $ S_1, S_3 $.
But the greedy algorithm might choose $ S_2, S_3, S_1 $.
Counter-example 3:
$ U = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\} $
$ S_1 = \{2, 3, 4, 5\} $
$ S_2 = \{1, 2, 3\} $
$ S_3 = \{4, 5, 6\} $
There is an optimal solution: $ S_2, S_3 $ (2 subsets).
A greedy algorithm will choose $ S_1, S_2, S_3 $ (3 subsets)
