We investigate the product measures of intersection problems in extremal combinatorics. Invoking a recent result of He--Li--Wu--Zhang, we prove that for any $ n \geq t \geq 3$ and $ p_1, p_2 \in (0, \frac{1}{t+1})$, if $ \mathcal{F}_1,…
For positive integers $n>k>t$ let $\binom{[n]}{k}$ denote the collection of all $k$-subsets of the standard $n$-element set $[n]=\{1,\ldots,n\}$. Subsets of $\binom{[n]}{k}$ are called $k$-graphs. A $k$-graph $\mathcal{F}$ is called…
The celebrated Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem \cite{EKR1961} states that the maximum intersecting $k$-uniform family on $[n]$ is a full star if $n\ge 2k+1$. Furthermore, Hilton-Milner \cite{HM1967} showed that if an intersecting $k$-uniform…
In this paper, we prove an analogue of the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem intersecting families of subspaces in projective Hjelmslev geometries over finite chain rings of nilpotency index 2. We give an example of maximal families that are not…
Consider a graph $G$ and a $k$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ on common vertex set $[n]$. We say that $\mathcal{H}$ is $G$-intersecting if for every pair of edges in $X,Y \in \mathcal{H}$ there are vertices $x \in X$ and $y \in Y$ such…
We show that if a simplicial complex is a near-cone of sufficiently high depth, then the only maximum families of small pairwise intersecting faces are those with a common intersection. Thus, near-cones of sufficiently high depth satisfy…
We study intersecting families of words from the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado perspective. When the alphabet size is $2$, a maximum intersecting family is not necessarily a star. However, we prove that every maximum $3$-wise intersecting family is a…
We study a certain two-parameter family of non-standard graded complete intersections $A(m,n)$. In case $n=2$, we show that $A(m,2)$ has the strong Lefschetz property and the complex Hodge-Riemann property if and only if $m$ is even. This…
We shall be interested in the following Erdos-Ko-Rado-type question. Fix some subset B of [n]. How large a family A of subsets of [n] can we find such that the intersection of any two sets in A contains a cyclic translate (modulo n) of B?…
Two families $\mathcal A$ and $\mathcal B$ of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set are called cross-intersecting if $A\cap B\ne\emptyset$ for all $A\in \mathcal A, B\in \mathcal B $. Strengthening the classical Erd\H os-Ko-Rado theorem, Pyber proved…
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…
Ahlswede and Khachatrian's diametric theorem is a weighted version of their complete intersection theorem, itself an extension of the $t$-intersecting Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem. Their intersection theorem says that the maximum size of a…
Let $S_n$ denote the set of permutations of $[n]:=\{1,\cdots, n\}$, and denote a permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ by $\sigma=\sigma_1\sigma_2\cdots \sigma_n$. For $l\ge2$ an integer, let $A^{(n)}_{l;k}\subset S_n$ denote the event that the set…
In this note we investigate correlation inequalities for `up-sets' of permutations, in the spirit of the Harris--Kleitman inequality. We focus on two well-studied partial orders on $S_n$, giving rise to differing notions of up-sets. Our…
We show that for every hereditary permutation property P and every eps>0, there exists an integer M such that if a permutation p is eps-far from P in the Kendall's tau distance, then a random subpermutation of p of order M has the property…
This article studies the poset of simple permutations with respect to the pattern involvement. We specify results on critically indecomposable posets obtained by Schmerl and Trotter to simple permutations and prove that if $\sigma, \pi$ are…
The \emph{intersection density} of a finite transitive group $G\leq \operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$ is the rational number $\rho(G)$ given by the ratio between the maximum size of a subset of $G$ in which any two permutations agree on some…
We consider two related problems arising from a question of R. Graham on quasirandom phenomena in permutation patterns. A ``pattern'' in a permutation $\sigma$ is the order type of the restriction of $\sigma : [n] \to [n]$ to a subset $S…
In a celebrated paper of Marcus and Ree (1959), it was shown that if $A=[a_{ij}]$ is an $n \times n$ doubly stochastic matrix, then there is a permutation $\sigma \in S_n$ such that $\sum_{i,j=1}^{n} a_{i,j}^{2} \leq \sum_{i=1}^{n}…
We consider families, $\mathcal{F}$ of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set. For integers $r\geq 2$, $t\geq 1$, $\mathcal{F}$ is called $r$-wise $t$-intersecting if any $r$ of its members have at least $t$ elements in common. The most natural…
