$d$-Degree Erdős-Ko-Rado theorem for finite vector spaces (2411.17985v1)

Abstract: Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}{q}$ and let $\left[V\atop k\right]_q$ denote the family of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$. A family $\mathcal{F}\subseteq \left[V\atop k\right]_q$ is called intersecting if for all $F$, $F'\in\mathcal{F}$, we have ${\rm dim}$$(F\cap F')\geq 1$. Let $\delta{d}(\mathcal{F})$ denote the minimum degree in $\mathcal{F}$ of all $d$-dimensional subspaces. In this paper we show that $\delta_{d}(\mathcal{F})\leq \left[n-d-1\atop k-d-1\right]$ in any intersecting family $\mathcal{F}\subseteq \left[V\atop k\right]_q$, where $k>d\geq 2$ and $n\geq 2k+1$.
