The multiple-orientability thresholds for random hypergraphs

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: A k-uniform hypergraph H=(V,E) is called ell-orientable, if there is an assignment of each edge einE to one of its vertices vine such that no vertex is assigned more than ell edges. Let Hn,m,k be a hypergraph, drawn uniformly at random from the set of all k-uniform hypergraphs with n vertices and m edges. In this paper we establish the threshold for the ell-orientability of Hn,m,k for all kge3 and ellge2, i.e., we determine a critical quantity ck,ell∗ such that with probability 1−o(1) the graph Hn,cn,k has an ell-orientation if c<ck,ell∗, but fails doing so if c>ck,ell∗. Our result has various applications including sharp load thresholds for cuckoo hashing, load balancing with guaranteed maximum load, and massive parallel access to hard disk arrays.
