✦ Synopsis


A cyclic ordering of the vertices of a k-uniform hypergraph is called a hamiltonian chain if any k consecutive vertices in the ordering form an edge. For k = 2 this is the same as a hamiltonian cycle. We consider several natural questions about the new notion. The main result is a Dirac-type theorem that provides a sufficient condition for finding hamiltonian chains in k-uniform hypergraphs with large (k -1)-minimal degree. If it is more than (1 -1 2k )n + 4 -k -5 2k , than the hypergraph contains a hamiltonian chain.

## Abstract Existence of some generalized edge colorings is proved by using the properties of hypergraphs as well as alternating chain methods. A general framework is given for edge colorings and some general properties of balancing are derived.

Let P be a poset, consisting of all sets X [n]=[1, 2, ..., n] which contain at least one of a given collection F of 2-subsets of [n], ordered by inclusion. By modifying a construction of Greene and Kleitman, we show that if F is hamiltonian, that is, contains [1, 2], [2, 3], ..., [n&1, n] and [1, n]

The choice number of a hypergraph H=(V, E) is the least integer s for which, for every family of color lists S=[S(v): v # V], satisfying |S(v)|=s for every v # V, there exists a choice function f so that f (v) # S(v) for every v # V, and no edge of H is monochromatic under f.
