Tight pairs of left-compressed generators
ID: tight-pairs-of-left-compressed-generators
For a t-intersecting family with left-compressed generators supported on , a tight pair containing cannot both miss an earlier coordinate . Replacing by in one generator gives a shifted set containing a generator, whose intersection with the other has at most points. Thus the union is , and their sizes sum to . This identifies precisely which size classes conflict when the largest support coordinate is removed.
