Constants for diagonal hypergraph Ramsey Theorem

For integers $n,s$, we write $K_n^{(s)}$ to denote the complete $s$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices. Given integers $k,s,r$, let $R(K_k^{(s)};r)$ denote the smallest $N$ such that, for every $r$-...

What is known about chromatic polynomial of hypergraph at $-1$

Let $H$ be a hypergraph and let $P_H$ denote its chromatic polynomial. I am interested in the best results interpreting $P_H(-1)$. I am interested both in the general case (which I think is hard) as ...

Definition of k-partite hypergraph

I would like to know the standard definition of k-partite hypergraph. There are two natural generalizations of k-partite graph to k-partite hypergraph: 1. For all edges e, any two vertices in e are ...

What is a hypergraph minor?

Is there a theory of hypergraph minors? I could only find some attempts to define them at papers/theses, whose main topic was something else. What would be a useful definition? Does the hypergraph ...

Graphs with minimum degree $\delta(G)\lt\aleph_0$

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph with minimum degree $\delta(G)=n\lt\aleph_0$. Does $G$ necessarily have a spanning subgraph $G'=(V,E')$ which also has minimum degree $\delta(G')=n$ and is minimal with that ...

Standard names of two finitary properties of hypergraphs?

Now we are writing a paper on minimal covers and minimal vertex-covers in hypergraphs and would like to know if there are any standard names for the following two (dual) properties of a hypergraph $(V,...

An equation involving fractional covering number of hypergraphs

Let $\mathcal{H}=(S,\mathcal{X})$ be a hypergraph, where $S = \{ s_1, \ldots, s_n \}$, and $\mathcal{X} = \{ X_1, \ldots, X_m \}$. The dual hypergraph $\mathcal{H}^*$ of $\mathcal{H}$ is the ...

Shortest hyperpath algorithm in intuitionistic fuzzy hypergraphs

I was looking for an algorithm to calculate the shortest hyperpath in intuitionistic fuzzy hypergraphs and I found only this article (which propose two algorithms). Are there any others algorithms ...

Hypergraph cartesian join operation (over same vertex set)

Consider two hypergraphs $H_1 = (V, \mathscr{E}_1), H_2 = (V, \mathscr{E}_2)$ over the same vertex set $V$. am interested in what could be called a "cartesian join" operation building a new ...

products/factoring of two hypergraphs with same vertex set?

all the basic products for graphs have been extended to hypergraphs[1]. is there a concept of a product of hypergraphs with the same vertex set? has this been studied? normally the hypergraph ...

What is the best lower bound for the domination number in regular graphs of girth 5?

The following theorem is a classical result (see [Alon and Spencer, The probabilistic method, 2nd ed., Theorem 1.2.2]): Theorem: Let $G$ be a graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree $d$. Then $G$ ...
