Frankl–Kiselev–Kupavskii conjecture on symmetric differences of intersecting families
Let , and let denote the family of all -element subsets of . A family is intersecting if for all . For sets , write , and define
Frankl–Kiselev–Kupavskii conjecture. If is intersecting and , then
The right-hand side is attained by a full star, so the conjecture asserts that full stars maximize the number of symmetric differences among intersecting -uniform families in the stated range. The supplied text gives the conjecture's origin but no resolution, so its status is open.
