Extremal results for Berge hypergraphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let G be a graph and mathcalH be a hypergraph both on the same vertex set. We say that a hypergraph mathcalH is a emph{Berge}-G if there is a bijection f:E(G)ightarrowE(mathcalH) such that for einE(G) we have esubsetf(e). This generalizes the established definitions of "Berge path" and "Berge cycle" to general graphs. For a fixed graph G we examine the maximum possible size (i.e. the sum of the cardinality of each edge) of a hypergraph with no Berge-G as a subhypergraph. In the present paper we prove general bounds for this maximum when G is an arbitrary graph. We also consider the specific case when G is a complete bipartite graph and prove an analogue of the KH ov'ari-S'os-Tur'an theorem.
