Maximal cocliques in the Kneser graph on plane-solid flags in $\mathrm{PG}(6,q)$

Klaus Metsch and Daniel Werner

Vol. 18 (2020), No. 1, 39–55
Abstract

For q 27 we determine the independence number α(Γ) of the Kneser graph Γ on plane-solid flags in PG(6,q). More precisely we describe all maximal independent sets of size at least q11 and show that every other maximal example has cardinality at most a constant times q10.
