Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a family of subsets of a finite set. A subfamily of $\mathcal{A}$ is said to be intersecting when any two of its members contain at least one common element. We say that $\mathcal{A}$ is an Erd{\H o}s-Ko-Rado (EKR)…

A $(k,\ell)$-partition is a set partition which has $\ell$ blocks each of size $k$. Two uniform set partitions $P$ and $Q$ are said to be partially $t$-intersecting if there exist blocks $P_{i}$ in $P$ and $Q_{j}$ in $Q$ such that $\left|…

We say a family of sets is intersecting if any two of its sets intersect, and we say it is trivially intersecting if there is an element which appears in every set of the family. In this paper we study the maximum size of a non-trivially…

Paul Erd\H{o}s and L\'aszl\'o Lov\'asz established that any \emph{maximal intersecting family of $k-$sets} has at most $k^{k}$ blocks. They introduced the problem of finding the maximum possible number of blocks in such a family. They also…

The extremal problems regarding the maximum possible size of intersecting families of various combinatorial objects have been extensively studied. In this paper, we investigate supersaturation extensions, which in this context ask for the…

Given a sequence of positive integers $p = (p_1, . . ., p_n)$, let $S_p$ denote the family of all sequences of positive integers $x = (x_1,...,x_n)$ such that $x_i \le p_i$ for all $i$. Two families of sequences (or vectors), $A,B \subseteq…

For a family $\mathcal{F}$ of subsets of a finite set, define $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{F})=\{F\setminus F': F, F'\in\mathcal{F}\}$. A family $\mathcal{F}$ is called intersecting if $F\cap F'\not=\emptyset$ for all $F, F'\in\mathcal{F}$. Frankl…

Let ${\mathscr L}=(X,\preceq)$ be a lattice. For ${\cal P}\subseteq X$ we say that ${\cal P}$ is $t$-{\it intersecting} if ${\sf rank}(x\wedge y)\ge t$ for all $x,y\in{\cal P}$. The seminal theorem of Erd\H{o}s, Ko and Rado describes the…

A set $A$ $t$-intersects a set $B$ if $A$ and $B$ have at least $t$ common elements. Families $\mathcal{A}_1, \mathcal{A}_2, \dots, \mathcal{A}_k$ of sets are cross-$t$-intersecting if, for every $i$ and $j$ in $\{1, 2, \dots, k\}$ with $i…

Let $ n\geqslant t\geqslant 1$ and $ \mathcal{A}_1, \mathcal{A}_2, \ldots, \mathcal{A}_m \subseteq 2^{[n]}$ be non-empty families. We say that they are pairwise cross $t$-intersecting if $|A_i\cap A_j|\geqslant t$ holds for any $A_i\in…

A family of sets is intersecting if any two sets in the family intersect. Given a graph $G$ and an integer $r\geq 1$, let $\mathcal{I}^{(r)}(G)$ denote the family of independent sets of size $r$ of $G$. For a vertex $v$ of $G$, the family…

We find the formula for the maximal cardinality of the family of $n$-tuples from ${[n]\choose k}$ with does not have $\ell$--matching. This formula after some analytical issues can be reduce to the Erd\"os's Matching formula. Also we prove…

A family $\mathcal{F}$ of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set is called $s$-almost $t$-intersecting if each member is $t$-disjoint with at most $s$ members. In this paper, we prove that, if $\left|\mathcal{F}\right|$ is maximum, then $\mathcal{F}$…

A set $A$ $t$-intersects a set $B$ if $A$ and $B$ have at least $t$ common elements. A set of sets is called a family. Two families $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ are cross-$t$-intersecting if each set in $\mathcal{A}$ $t$-intersects each…

A family $\mathcal{F}$ on ground set $\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ is maximal $k$-wise intersecting if every collection of $k$ sets in $\mathcal{F}$ has non-empty intersection, and no other set can be added to $\mathcal{F}$ while maintaining this…

For a family $\mathcal F$, let $\mathcal D(\mathcal F)$ stand for the family of all sets that can be expressed as $F\setminus G$, where $F,G\in \mathcal F$. A family $\mathcal F$ is intersecting if any two sets from the family have…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $k$-element subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. For $t\geq 1$, we say that $\mathcal{F}$ is {\it 3-wise $t$-intersecting} if $|F_1\cap F_2\cap F_3|\geq t$ for all $F_1,F_2,F_3\in \mathcal{F}$. In the present…

Two sets $\mathscr{A}$ and $\mathscr{B}$ are said to be cross-intersecting if $X\cap Y\neq\emptyset$ for all $X\in\mathscr{A}$ and $Y\in\mathscr{B}$. Given two cross-intersecting Sperner families (or antichains) $\mathscr{A}$ and…

We give a canonical partition of shifted intersecting set systems, from which one can obtain unified and elementary proofs of the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado and Hilton-Milner Theorem, as well as a characterization of maximal shifted $k$-uniform…

In 1984, Wilson proved the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem for $t$-intersecting families of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set: he showed that if $n\ge(t+1)(k-t+1)$ and $\mathcal{F}$ is a family of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set such that any two members of…
