We obtain a generalisation of a result by Hilton and Milner on cross intersecting families. In particular, we determine the maximum possible sum of the sizes of non-empty r-cross t-intersecting families in the case when all families are k-uniform and in the case when they are arbitrary subfamilies of the power set. Only some special cases of these results had been proved before. The method we use also yields more general results concerning measures of families instead of their sizes.en1877-05092021453458Erdos-Ko-RadoExtremal set theoryHilton-Milnerintersecting familiesConference Paper10.1016/j.procs.2021.11.055Other
