Abstract:Assume GCH. Let κ, μ, Σ be cardinals, with κ infinite. Let be a family consisting of λ pairwise almost disjoint subsets of Σ each of size κ, whose union is Σ. In this note it is shown that for each μ with 1 ≤ μ ≤min(λ, Σ), there is a “large” almost disjoint family of μ-sized subsets of Σ, each member of having non-empty intersection with at least μ members of the family .
