Erdős–Ko–Rado and Hilton–Milner Type Theorems for Intersecting Chains in Posets

-intersecting k-chains in posets using the kernel method. These results are common generalizations of the original EKR and HM theorems, and our earlier results for intersecting k-chains in the Boolean algebra. For intersecting k-chains in the c-truncated Boolean algebra we also prove an exact EKR type theorem (for all n) using the shift method. An application of the general theorem gives a similar result for t-intersecting chains if n is large enough.
