Cross-intersecting pairs of hypergraphs

Abstract: Abstract. Two hypergraphs H 1 , H 2 are called cross-intersecting if e 1 ∩ e 2 = ∅ for every pair of edges e 1 ∈ H 1 , e 2 ∈ H 2 . Each of the hypergraphs is then said to block the other. Given parameters n, r, m we determine the maximal size of a sub-hypergraph of [n] r (meaning that it is r-partite, with all sides of size n) for which there exists a blocking sub-hypergraph of [n] r of size m. The answer involves a fractal-like (that is, self-similar) sequence, first studied by Knuth. We also study the same q… Show more

“…Blocking sets and the blockers of set families (families are often regarded as the hyperedge families of hypergraphs) are discussed, e.g., in the monographs [11,22,29,31,32,43,46,48,50,51,53,54,56,67,70,72,73,78,79,81] and in the works [3,4,5,6,7,9,10,12,13,16,17,20,21,23,24,25,26,27,28,30,33,34,38,39,40,41,42,44,45,47,52,…”
