In this paper we study the maximum size of a non-trivially intersecting family in a natural “multi-part” setting. Here the ground set is divided into parts, and one considers families of sets whose intersection with each part is of a prescribed size. Our work is motivated by classical results in the single-part setting due to Erdős, Ko and Rado, and Hilton and Milner, and by a theorem of Frankl concerning intersecting families in this multi-part setting. In the case where the part sizes are sufficiently large we determine the maximum size of a non-trivially intersecting multi-part family, disproving a conjecture of Alon and Katona.","lang":"eng"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"user_id":"6785fbc1-c503-11eb-8a32-93094b40e1cf","doi":"10.1016/j.jcta.2017.12.001","scopus_import":"1","citation":{"apa":"Kwan, M.
