Hypergraphs with large transversal number and with edge sizes at least four

Michael Henning, Christian Löwenstein (2012)

Open Mathematics

Let H be a hypergraph on n vertices and m edges with all edges of size at least four. The transversal number τ(H) of H is the minimum number of vertices that intersect every edge. Lai and Chang [An upper bound for the transversal numbers of 4-uniform hypergraphs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 1990, 50(1), 129–133] proved that τ(H) ≤ 2(n+m)/9, while Chvátal and McDiarmid [Small transversals in hypergraphs, Combinatorica, 1992, 12(1), 19–26] proved that τ(H) ≤ (n + 2m)/6. In this paper, we characterize...

Hypergraphs with Pendant Paths are not Chromatically Unique

Ioan Tomescu (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

In this note it is shown that every hypergraph containing a pendant path of length at least 2 is not chromatically unique. The same conclusion holds for h-uniform r-quasi linear 3-cycle if r ≥ 2.

Hyperidentities in transitive graph algebras

Tiang Poomsa-ard, Jeerayut Wetweerapong, Charuchai Samartkoon (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Graph algebras establish a connection between directed graphs without multiple edges and special universal algebras of type (2,0). We say that a graph G satisfies an identity s ≈ t if the corresponding graph algebra A(G) satisfies s ≈ t. A graph G = (V,E) is called a transitive graph if the corresponding graph algebra A(G) satisfies the equation x(yz) ≈ (xz)(yz). An identity s ≈ t of terms s and t of any type t is called a hyperidentity of an algebra A̲ if whenever the operation symbols occurring...
