Abstract: For fixed positive integers r,k and ell with 1leqell<r and an r-uniform hypergraph H, let kappa(H,k,ell) denote the number of k-colorings of the set of hyperedges of H for which any two hyperedges in the same color class intersect in at least ell elements. Consider the function KC(n,r,k,ell)=maxHinmathcalHnkappa(H,k,ell), where the maximum runs over the family mathcalHn of all r-uniform hypergraphs on n vertices. In this paper, we determine the asymptotic behavior of the function KC(n,r,k,ell) for every fixed r, k and ell and describe the extremal hypergraphs. This variant of a problem of ErdH{o}s and Rothschild, who considered edge colorings of graphs without a monochromatic triangle, is related to the ErdH{o}s--Ko--Rado Theorem on intersecting systems of sets [Intersection Theorems for Systems of Finite Sets, Quarterly Journal of Mathematics, Oxford Series, Series 2, {�f 12} (1961), 313--320].
