Given a graph $G$, we say a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ on the same vertex set contains a Berge-$G$ if there exists an injection $\phi:E(G)\to E(H)$ such that $e\subseteq\phi(e)$ for each edge $e\in E(G)$. A hypergraph $H$ is Berge-$G$-saturated if $H$ does not contain a Berge-$G$, but adding any edge to $H$ creates a Berge-$G$. The saturation number for Berge-$G$, denoted $\mathrm{sat}_k(n,\text{Berge-}G)$ is the least number of edges in a $k$-uniform hypergraph that is Berge-$G$-saturated. We determine exactly the value of the saturation numbers for Berge stars. As a tool for our main result, we also prove the existence of nearly-regular $k$-uniform hypergraphs, or $k$-uniform hypergraphs in which every vertex has degree $r$ or $r-1$ for some $r\in \mathbb{Z}$, and less than $k$ vertices have degree $r-1$.

Here we address the problem to partition edge colored hypergraphs by monochromatic paths and cycles generalizing a well-known similar problem for graphs.We show that $r$-colored $r$-uniform complete hypergraphs can be partitioned into monochromatic Berge-paths of distinct colors. Also, apart from $2k-5$ vertices, $2$-colored $k$-uniform hypergraphs can be partitioned into two monochromatic loose paths.In general, we prove that in any $r$-coloring of a $k$-uniform hypergraph there is a partition of the vertex set intomonochromatic loose cycles such that their number depends only on $r$ and $k$.

A hypergraph H = ( V , ε ) is a pair consisting of a vertex set V , and a set ε of subsets (the hyperedges of H ) of V . A hypergraph H is r -uniform if all the hyperedges of H have the same cardinality r . Let H be an r -uniform hypergraph, we generalize the concept of trees for r -uniform hypergraphs. We say that an r -uniform hypergraph H is a generalized hypertree ( G H T ) if H is disconnected after removing any hyperedge E , and the number of components of G H T − E is a fixed value k   ( 2 ≤ k ≤ r ) . We focus on the case that G H T − E has exactly two components. An edge-minimal G H T is a G H T whose edge set is minimal with respect to inclusion. After considering these definitions, we show that an r -uniform G H T on n vertices has at least 2 n / ( r + 1 ) edges and it has at most n − r + 1 edges if r ≥ 3   and   n ≥ 3 , and the lower and upper bounds on the edge number are sharp. We then discuss the case that G H T − E has exactly k   ( 2 ≤ k ≤ r − 1 ) components.

An oriented k-uniform hypergraph (a family of ordered k-sets) has the ordering property (or Property O) if, for every linear order of the vertex set, there is some edge oriented consistently with the linear order. We find bounds on the minimum number of edges in a hypergraph with Property O.

Random Hypergraphs

Let $G$ be a graph. We say an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is a Berge-$G$ if there exists a bijection $\phi: E(G)\to E(H)$ such that $e\subseteq\phi(e)$ for each $e\in E(G)$. Given a family of $r$-uniform hypergraphs $\mathcal{F}$ and an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$, a spanning sub-hypergraph $H'$ of $H$ is $\mathcal{F}$-saturated in $H$ if $H'$ is $\mathcal{F}$-free, but adding any edge in $E(H)\backslash E(H')$ to $H'$ creates a copy of some $F\in\mathcal{F}$. The saturation number of $\mathcal{F}$ is the minimum number of edges in an $\mathcal{F}$-saturated spanning sub-hypergraph of $H$. In this paper, we asymptotically determine the saturation number of Berge stars in random $r$-uniform hypergraphs.

Clique Problem

A hypergraph [Formula: see text] with vertex set [Formula: see text] and edge set [Formula: see text] differs from a graph in that an edge can connect more than two vertices. An r-uniform hypergraph [Formula: see text] is a hypergraph with hyperedges of size [Formula: see text]. For an r-uniform hypergraph [Formula: see text], an r-uniform clique is a subset [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] such as every subset of [Formula: see text] elements of [Formula: see text] belongs to [Formula: see text]. We present hClique, an exact algorithm to find a maximum r-uniform clique for [Formula: see text]-uniform graphs. In order to evidence the performance of hClique, 32 random [Formula: see text]-graphs were solved.

Lubell Function

A non-uniform hypergraph $H=(V,E)$ consists of a vertex set $V$ and an edge set $E\subseteq 2^V$; the edges in $E$ are not required to all have the same cardinality. The set of all cardinalities of edges in $H$ is denoted by $R(H)$, the set of edge types. For a fixed hypergraph $H$, the Turán density $\pi(H)$ is defined to be $\lim_{n\to\infty}\max_{G_n}h_n(G_n)$, where the maximum is taken over all $H$-free hypergraphs $G_n$ on $n$ vertices satisfying $R(G_n)\subseteq R(H)$, and $h_n(G_n)$, the so called Lubell function, is the expected number of edges in $G_n$ hit by a random full chain. This concept, which generalizes  the Turán density of $k$-uniform hypergraphs, is motivated by recent work on extremal poset problems.  The details connecting these two areas will be revealed in the end of this paper.Several properties of Turán density, such as supersaturation, blow-up, and suspension, are generalized from uniform hypergraphs to non-uniform hypergraphs. Other questions such as "Which hypergraphs are degenerate?" are more complicated and don't appear to generalize well. In addition, we completely determine the Turán densities of $\{1,2\}$-hypergraphs.

Let $[n]$ denote the set $\{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$ and $\mathcal{F}^{(r)}_{n,k,a}$ be an $r$-uniform hypergraph on the vertex set $[n]$ with edge set consisting of all the $r$-element subsets of $[n]$ that contains at least $a$ vertices in $[ak+a-1]$. For $n\geq 2rk$, Frankl proved that $\mathcal{F}^{(r)}_{n,k,1}$ maximizes the number of edges in $r$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices with the matching number at most $k$. Huang, Loh and Sudakov considered a multicolored version of the Erd\H{o}s matching conjecture, and provided a sufficient condition on the number of edges for a multicolored hypergraph to contain a rainbow matching of size $k$. In this paper, we show that $\mathcal{F}^{(r)}_{n,k,a}$ maximizes the number of $s$-cliques in $r$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices with the matching number at most $k$ for sufficiently large $n$, where $a=\lfloor \frac{s-r}{k} \rfloor+1$. We also obtain a condition on the number of $s$-clques for a multicolored $r$-uniform hypergraph to contain a rainbow matching of size $k$, which reduces to the condition of Huang, Loh and Sudakov when $s=r$.

Recursive Constructions

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.

About the Katona-Kierstead definition of a Hamiltonian cycles in a uniform hypergraph, a decomposition of complete k-uniform hypergraph Kn(k) into Hamiltonian cycles studied by Bailey-Stevens and Meszka-Rosa. For n≡2,4,5 (mod 6), we design algorithm for decomposing the complete 3-uniform hypergraphs into Hamiltonian cycles by using the method of edge-partition. A decomposition of Kn(3) into 5-cycles has been presented for all admissible n≤17, and for all n=4m +1, m is a positive integer. In general, the existence of a decomposition into 5-cycles remains open. In this paper, we use the method of edge-partition and cycle sequence proposed by Jirimutu and Wang. We find a decomposition of K20(3) into 5-cycles.

Ak-uniform hypergraphH= (V, E) is called ℓ-orientable if there is an assignment of each edgee∈Eto one of its verticesv∈esuch that no vertex is assigned more than ℓ edges. LetHn,m,kbe a hypergraph, drawn uniformly at random from the set of allk-uniform hypergraphs withnvertices andmedges. In this paper we establish the threshold for the ℓ-orientability ofHn,m,kfor allk⩾ 3 and ℓ ⩾ 2, that is, we determine a critical quantityc*k,ℓsuch that with probability 1 −o(1) the graphHn,cn,khas an ℓ-orientation ifc<c*k,ℓ, but fails to do so ifc>c*k,ℓ.Our result has various applications, including sharp load thresholds for cuckoo hashing, load balancing with guaranteed maximum load, and massive parallel access to hard disk arrays.
