An $(n, k_1, \dots, k_t)$-cross intersecting system is a set of non-empty pairwise cross-intersecting families $\mathcal{F}_1\subset{[n]\choose k_1}, \mathcal{F}_2\subset{[n]\choose k_2}, \dots, \mathcal{F}_t\subset{[n]\choose k_t}$ with…
A family of $k$-subsets $A_1, A_2, ..., A_d$ on $[n]=\{1,2,..., n\}$ is called a $(d, c)$-cluster if the union $A_1\cup A_2 \cup ... \cup A_d$ contains at most $ck$ elements with $c<d$. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of $k$-subsets of an…
Two families $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ are called cross-intersecting if for every $F\in \mathcal{F}$ and $G\in \mathcal{G}$, the intersection $F\cap G$ is non-empty. It is significant to determine the maximum sum of sizes of…
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 ${n-1 \choose r-1}$…
Let $\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G}$ be two cross-intersecting families of $k$-subsets of $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. Let $\mathcal{F}\wedge \mathcal{G}$, $\mathcal{I}(\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G})$ denote the families of all intersections $F\cap G$ with $F\in…
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…
Let $\mathcal{S}_n$ be the symmetric group on the set $[n]:=\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$. A family $\mathcal{F}\subset \mathcal{S}_n$ is called intersecting if for every $\sigma,\pi\in \mathcal{F}$ there exists some $i\in [n]$ such that…
A family of permutations (\mathcal{A} \subset S_{n}) is said to be (t)-\textit{intersecting} if any two permutations in (\mathcal{A}) agree on at least (t) points, i.e. for any (\sigma, \pi \in \mathcal{A}), (|\{i \in [n]:…
In this paper, we describe the structure of maximal non-trivial uniform $t$-intersecting families with large size for finite sets. In the special case when $t=1$, our result gives rise to Kostochka and Mubayi's result in 2017.
Two subsets $A$ and $B$ of a ground set $X$ are \emph{crossing} if none of the four sets $A\setminus B,B\setminus A,A\cap B, X\setminus (A\cup B)$ are empty. Almost fifty years ago, Karzanov and Lomonosov conjectured that every family of…
For any positive integers $k,r,n$ with $r \leq \min\{k,n\}$, let $\mathcal{P}_{k,r,n}$ be the family of all sets $\{(x_1,y_1), \dots, (x_r,y_r)\}$ such that $x_1, \dots, x_r$ are distinct elements of $[k] = \{1, \dots, k\}$ and $y_1, \dots,…
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…
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 $\mathcal{F}$ of spanning trees of the complete graph on $n$ vertices $K_n$ is \emph{$t$-intersecting} if any two members have a forest on $t$ edges in common. We prove an Erd\H{o}s--Ko--Rado result for $t$-intersecting families of…
We prove that the maximum size of a family of $k$-element subsets of the set $[n] = \{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$ which contains no singleton intersection is $\binom{n-2}{k-2}$ when $3k-3 \le n \le k^2-k+1$. This improves upon a recent result of…
A family of vectors $A \subset [k]^n$ is said to be intersecting if any two elements of $A$ agree on at least one coordinate. We prove, for fixed $k \ge 3$, that the size of a symmetric intersecting subfamily of $[k]^n$ is $o(k^n)$, which…
Let $t$, $r$, $k$ and $n$ be positive integers and $\mathcal{F}$ a family of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set $V$. The family $ \CF $ is $ r $-wise $ t $-intersecting if for any $ F_1, \ldots, F_r \in \CF $, we have $ \abs{\cap_{i = 1}^{r}F_i}\gs…
We study the maximum size of a set system on $n$ elements whose trace on any $b$ elements has size at most $k$. We show that if for some $b \ge i \ge 0$ the shatter function $f_R$ of a set system $([n],R)$ satisfies $f_R(b) < 2^i(b-i+1)$…
A family of graphs F is said to be triangle-intersecting if for any two graphs G,H in F, the intersection of G and H contains a triangle. A conjecture of Simonovits and Sos from 1976 states that the largest triangle-intersecting families of…
This paper resolves two open problems in extremal set theory. For a family $\mathcal{F} \subseteq 2^{[n]}$ and $i, j\in [n]$, we denote $\mathcal{F} (i,\bar{j})=\{F\backslash\{i\}: F\in \mathcal{F}, F\cap\{i,j\}=\{i\}\}$. The sturdiness…
