Abstract: The neighborhood of a pair of vertices u,v in a triple system is the set of vertices w such that uvw is an edge. A triple system HH is semi-bipartite if its vertex set contains a vertex subset X such that every edge of HH intersects X in exactly two points. It is easy to see that if HH is semi-bipartite, then the neighborhood of every pair of vertices in HH is an independent set. We show a partial converse of this statement by proving that almost all triple systems with vertex sets [n] and independent neighborhoods are semi-bipartite. Our result can be viewed as an extension of the ErdH os-Kleitman-Rothschild theorem to triple systems. The proof uses the Frankl-R"odl hypergraph regularity lemma, and stability theorems. Similar results have recently been proved for hypergraphs with various other local constraints.
