contents For a set $L$ of positive proper fractions and a positive integer $r \geq 2$, a fractional $r$-closed $L$-intersecting family is a collection $\mathcal{F} \subset \mathcal{P}([n])$ with the property that for any $2 \leq t \leq r$ and $A_1, \dotsc, A_t \in \mathcal{F}$ there exists $θ\in L$ such that $\lvert A_1 \cap \dotsb \cap A_t \rvert \in \{ θ\lvert A_1 \rvert, \dotsc, θ\lvert A_t \rvert\}$. In this paper we show that for $r \geq 3$ and $L = \{θ\}$ any fractional $r$-closed $θ$-intersecting family has size at most linear in $n$, and this is best possible up to a constant factor. We also show that in the case $θ= 1/2$ we have a tight upper bound of $\lfloor \frac{3n}{2} \rfloor - 2$ and that a maximal $r$-closed $(1/2)$-intersecting family is determined uniquely up to isomorphism.
