Erdös–Ko–Rado Theorem—22 Years Later

TL;DR: A survey of known and of some new generalizations and analogues of Erdos, Ko, and Rado's theorem can be found in this article, where the authors consider mostly problems which were not included or were touched very briefly in the survey papers [17], [46], [51], [61].

Intersection properties of systems of finite sets

Extremal problems concerning Kneser graphs

TL;DR: It is proven that equality holds for n> 1 2 (3+ 5 )k , and equality holds only if there exist two points a, b such that {a, b} ∩ F ≠ ∅ for all F ∈ A ∪ B.

Intersection theorems for systems of finite sets

TL;DR: In this article, the obliteration operator is used to remove from any system of elements the element above which it is placed, and the set of all systems (ao,av...,dn) such that avc[0,m); \av\ 1 (v < »),
