Extremal cross-space-intersecting sets in finite general linear groups

From papers

Let qq be a prime power and let Gn=GL(n,q)G_n=\operatorname{GL}(n,q). Let Y,ZGnY,Z\subseteq G_n be tt-space-cross-intersecting sets, meaning that every pair in Y×ZY\times Z is tt-space-intersecting. Cross-space-intersection conjecture. If their sizes meet the bound in Theorem, and nn is sufficiently large compared to tt, then Y=ZY=Z and YY is the stabiliser of a tt-space or the stabiliser of an (nt)(n-t)-space. This is the proposed equality classification for the cross-space-intersection bound; the supplied text gives no resolution.
