We say they are cross $t$-intersecting families. Moreover, we say they are trivial if each member of them contains a fixed $t$-dimensional totally isotropic subspace. In this paper, we show that cross $t$-intersecting families with maximum product of sizes are trivial. We also describe the structure of non-trivial $t$-intersecting families with maximum product of sizes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-01-21T10:41:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05D05", "05A30", "51A50" ], "keywords": [ "symplectic polar space", "intersecting families", "dimensional totally isotropic subspace", "maximum product", "finite field" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
