Let $k$, $t$ and $m$ be positive integers. A $k$-multiset of $[m]$ is a collection of $k$ integers from the set $\{1,...,m\}$ in which the integers can appear more than once. We use graph homomorphisms and existing theorems for intersecting…

We say that a family of $k$-subsets of an $n$-element set is intersecting, if any two of its sets intersect. In this paper we study different extremal properties of intersecting families, as well as the structure of large intersecting…

Let $V$ be an $(n+\ell)$-dimensional vector space over a finite field, and $W$ a fixed $\ell$-dimensional subspace of $V$. Write ${V\brack n,0}$ to be the set of all $n$-dimensional subspaces $U$ of $V$ satisfying $\dim(U\cap W)=0$. A…

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 $\mathcal{F}$…

Given integers $r\geq 2$ and $n,t\geq 1$ we call families $\mathcal{F}_1,\dots,\mathcal{F}_r\subseteq\mathscr{P}([n])$ $r$-cross $t$-intersecting if for all $F_i\in\mathcal{F}_i$, $i\in[r]$, we have $\vert\bigcap_{i\in[r]}F_i\vert\geq t$.…

Let $ k, n \in \mathbb{N}^+ $ and $ m \in \mathbb{N}^+ \cup \{\infty \} $. A $ k $-multiset in $ [n]_m $ is a $ k $-set whose elements are integers from $ \{1, 2, \ldots, n\} $, and each element is allowed to have at most $ m $ repetitions.…

A collection of sets is {\em intersecting} if every two members have nonempty intersection. We describe the structure of intersecting families of $r$-sets of an $n$-set whose size is quite a bit smaller than the maximum ${n-1 \choose r-1}$…

We give a Hilton-Milner Theorem for the $r$-independent sets in the graph that is the union of copies of $K_k$. That is, we determine the maximum intersecting families of $r$-independent sets in this graph, subject to the condition that the…

A set partition is $c$-uniform if every block has size $c$. Two families of $c$-uniform partitions of a finite set are said to be cross $t$-intersecting if two partitions from different families share at least $t$ blocks. In this paper, we…

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…

The matching number of a family of subsets of an $n$-element set is the maximum number of pairwise disjoint sets. The families with matching number $1$ are called intersecting. The famous Erd\H os-Ko-Rado theorem determines the size of the…

A family $\mathcal F\subset 2^{[n]}$ is called intersecting if any two of its sets intersect. Given an intersecting family, its diversity is the number of sets not passing through the most popular element of the ground set. Peter Frankl…
