# Intersecting families

This file defines intersecting families and proves their basic properties.

## Main declarations

* `set.intersecting`: Predicate for a set of elements in a generalized boolean algebra to be an
  intersecting family.
* `set.intersecting.card_le`: An intersecting family can only take up to half the elements, because
  `a` and `aᶜ` cannot simultaneously be in it.
* `set.intersecting.is_max_iff_card_eq`: Any maximal intersecting family takes up half the elements.

## References
