Independent sets in hypergraphs with a forbidden link

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We give a probabilistic construction of a 3-uniform hypergraph on N vertices with independence number O(logN/loglogN) in which there are at most two edges among any four vertices. This bound is tight and solves a longstanding open problem of ErdH{o}s and Hajnal in Ramsey theory. We further extend this result to prove tight bounds on various other hypergraph Ramsey numbers.
