Intersecting families of permutations with a fixed number of cycles

Let $\mathrm{Sym(n,k)}$ denote the set of permutations on $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ with exactly $k$ cycles. A family $\mathcal{F}\subset\mathrm{Sym}(n,k)$ is said to be intersecting if $\sigma^{-1}\tau$ has a fixed point for all $\sigma,\tau\in\mathcal{F}$. In this paper, we investigate the size and structure of maximum-size...
