Improved Bounds for Covering Complete Uniform Hypergraphs

چکیده

We consider the problem of covering the complete r-uniform hypergraphs on n vertices using complete r-partite graphs. We obtain lower bounds on the size of such a covering. For small values of r our result implies a lower bound of Ω( e r r √ r n log n) on the size of any such covering. This improves the previous bound of Ω(rn log n) due to Snir [5]. We also obtain good lower bounds on the size of a family of perfect hash function using simple arguments.

Erdős-Pyber theorem for hypergraphs and secret sharing

A new, constructive proof with a small explicit constant is given to the Erdős-Pyber theorem which says that the edges of a graph on n vertices can be partitioned into complete bipartite subgraphs so that every vertex is covered at most O(n/ log n) times. The theorem is generalized to uniform hypergraphs. Similar bounds with smaller constant value is provided for fractional partitioning both fo...

Directed domination in oriented hypergraphs

ErdH{o}s [On Sch"utte problem, Math. Gaz. 47 (1963)] proved that every tournament on $n$ vertices has a directed dominating set of at most $log (n+1)$ vertices, where $log$ is the logarithm to base $2$. He also showed that there is a tournament on $n$ vertices with no directed domination set of cardinality less than $log n - 2 log log n + 1$. This notion of directed domination number has been g...

Colorful Subhypergraphs in Uniform Hypergraphs

There are several topological results ensuring in any properly colored graph the existence of a colorful complete bipartite subgraph, whose order is bounded from below by some topological invariants of some topological spaces associated to the graph. Meunier [Electron. J. Combin., 2014] presented the first colorful type result for uniform hypergraphs. In this paper, we give some new generalizat...

Codegree Thresholds for Covering 3-Uniform Hypergraphs

Given two 3-uniform hypergraphs F and G = (V,E), we say that G has an F -covering if we can cover V with copies of F . The minimum codegree of G is the largest integer d such that every pair of vertices from V is contained in at least d triples from E. Define c2(n, F ) to be the largest minimum codegree among all n-vertex 3-graphs G that contain no F -covering. Determining c2(n, F ) is a natura...
