Even-Intersecting Families of Permutations

A family of permutations in $S_n$ is called even-intersecting if every two distinct members agree in an even number of positions. Let $M(n)$ denote the maximum size of such a family. For even $n$, we prove that $$n!!\leq M(n)\leq e^{\frac{n}{2}+o(n)}n!!,$$ improving the bound obtained from a theorem of Cameron, Deza an...
