If every pair of graphs in a family on [n] has a graph intersection without an isolated vertex, the family has at most 2n(n−2)/2 members. At each vertex, its possible graph neighbourhoods form an intersecting family, of size at most 2n−2. Every edge occurs in two such neighbourhood projections. Shearer inequality bounds twice the full information entropy by the sum of their information entropies.
