Abstract
In this short note, we prove the following analog of the Kővári–Sós–Turán theorem for intersection graphs of boxes. If G is the intersection graph of n axis-parallel boxes in
$${{\mathbb{R}}^d}$$
such that G contains no copy of K
t,t
, then G has at most ctn( log n)2d+3 edges, where c = c(d)>0 only depends on d. Our proof is based on exploring connections between boxicity, separation dimension and poset dimension. Using this approach, we also show that a construction of Basit, Chernikov, Starchenko, Tao and Tran of K2,2-free incidence graphs of points and rectangles in the plane can be used to disprove a conjecture of Alon, Basavaraju, Chandran, Mathew and Rajendraprasad. We show that there exist graphs of separation dimension 4 having superlinear number of edges.
In this paper, we consider the problem of constructing hypercycle systems of 5-cycles in complete 3-uniform hypergraphs. A hypercycle system C(r,k,v) of order v is a collection of r-uniform k-cycles on a v-element vertex set, such that each r-element subset is an edge in precisely one of those k-cycles. We present cyclic hypercycle systems C(3,5,v) of orders v=25,26,31,35,37,41,46,47,55,56, a highly symmetric construction for v=40, and cyclic 2-split constructions of orders 32,40,50,52. As a consequence, all orders v≤60 permitted by the divisibility conditions admit a C(3,5,v) system. New recursive constructions are also introduced.
