Intersecting families of vector spaces with maximum covering number

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let VV be an nn-dimensional vector space over the finite field Fq\mathbb{F}_q. Suppose that F\mathscr{F} is an intersecting family of mm-dimensional subspaces of VV. The covering number of F\mathscr{F} is the minimum dimension of a subspace of VV which intersects all elements of F\mathscr{F}. In this paper, we give the tight upper bound for the size of F\mathscr{F} whose covering number is mm, and describe the structure of F\mathscr{F} which reaches the upper bound. Moreover, we determine the structure of an maximum intersecting family of singular linear space with the maximum covering number.
