A family of subsets F of some sets is intersecting if any two members of
F have at least one point in common. Erdos-Ko-Rado Theorem says a
intersecting family of $k$-subsets of an $n$-set where $n\ge 2k$ has size
at most ${n-1} \choose {k-1}$. In this talk, I will present an algebraic
proof of Erdos-Ko-Rado Theorem.
