Let H be a k-uniform hypergraph in which no two edges share more than t common vertices, and let D denote the maximum degree of a vertex of H. We conjecture that for every =>0, if D is sufficiently large as a function of t, k, and =, then the chromatic index of H is at most (t&1+1Γt+=) D. We prove t
For a pair of integers 1 F β₯r, the β₯-chromatic number of an r-uniform Ε½ . hypergraph H s V, E is the minimal k, for which there exists a partition of V into subsets < < T, . . . , T such that e l T F β₯ for every e g E. In this paper we determine the asymptotic 1 k i Ε½ . behavior of the β₯-chromatic n
A classical theorem of Claude Shannon states that for any multigraph G without loops, Ο (G) β€ 3 2 (G) . We suggest a generalization of Shannon's theorem to hypergraphs and prove it in case of hypergraphs without repeated edges of size 2.
A conjecture of BollobΓ‘s and Thomason asserts that, for r β₯ 1, every r -uniform hypergraph with m edges can be partitioned into r classes such that every class meets at least rm/(2r -1) edges. BollobΓ‘s, Reed and Thomason [3] proved that there is a partition in which every edge meets at least (1 -1/e
Burr recently proved [3] that for positive integers m , , m 2 , . . , , m, and any graph G we have x(G) 5 &, if and only if G can be expressed as the edge disjoint union of subgraphs F, satisfying x(F,) 5 m,. This theorem is generalized to hypergraphs. By suitable interpretations the generalization
