Finding and counting cliques and independent sets in r-uniform hypergraphs

چکیده
We present a matrix multiplication based algorithm for counting the number of (induced) occurrences of a fixed r-uniform hypergraph in a larger hypergraph. In many cases, the running time is better than that of the näıve algorithm. We also present several useful applications of the algorithm, such as determining the dominant color among monochromatic simplices in a redblue edge-colored hypergraph, approximating the number of independent simplices in a random hypergraph, and counting induced occurrences of a given 3-uniform k-vertex hypergraph in a larger k-clique free hypergraph.

Counting Small Cliques in 3-uniform Hypergraphs
Many applications of Szemerédi’s Regularity Lemma for graphs are based on the following counting result. If G is an s-partite graph with partition V (G) = ⋃s i=1 Vi, |Vi| = m for all i ∈ [s], and all pairs (Vi, Vj ), 1 i < j s, are -regular of density d, then G contains (1± f( ))d s 2 ms cliques Ks, provided < (d), where f( ) tends to 0 as tends to 0. Guided by the regularity lemma for 3-unifor...
متن کاملErdős-Hajnal-type theorems in hypergraphs
The Erdős-Hajnal conjecture states that if a graph on n vertices is H-free, that is, it does not contain an induced copy of a given graph H, then it must contain either a clique or an independent set of size n, where δ(H) > 0 depends only on the graph H. Except for a few special cases, this conjecture remains wide open. However, it is known that a H-free graph must contain a complete or empty b...
متن کاملDirected 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...
متن کاملThe counting lemma for regular k-uniform hypergraphs
Szemerédi’s Regularity Lemma proved to be a powerful tool in the area of extremal graph theory. Many of its applications are based on its accompanying Counting Lemma: If G is an `-partite graph with V (G) = V1 ∪ · · · ∪ V` and |Vi| = n for all i ∈ [`], and all pairs (Vi, Vj) are ε-regular of density d for 1 ≤ i < j ≤ ` and ε d, then G contains (1± f`(ε))d “ ` 2 ” × n` cliques K`, where f`(ε) → ...
متن کاملIndependent Sets in Hypergraphs
Many important theorems and conjectures in combinatorics, such as the theorem of Szemerédi on arithmetic progressions and the Erdős-Stone Theorem in extremal graph theory, can be phrased as statements about families of independent sets in certain uniform hypergraphs. In recent years, an important trend in the area has been to extend such classical results to the so-called ‘sparse random setting...
