Moreover, the hypergraph is triangle-free, where a "triangle" in an r-uniform hypergraph consists of three edges whose union is a set of r+1 vertices. ...
A hypergraph is "d-degenerate" if every subhypergraph has a vertex of degree at most d. A greedy algorithm colours every such hypergraph with at most d+1 colours. ...

This is the first example of a class of hypergraphs whose Ramsey numbers show a strong dependence on the number of colours. ...
We exhibit a family of 3-uniform hypergraphs with the property that their 2-colour Ramsey numbers grow polynomially in the number of vertices, while their 4-colour Ramsey numbers grow exponentially. ...
One of the main outstanding problems in Ramsey theory is to decide whether the Ramsey number for complete 3-uniform hypergraphs is double exponential. ...

The NP-completeness of finding A-trails in Eulerian graphs and of finding spanning trees in hypergraphs
1995
Discrete Applied Mathematics
We prove, by a different reduction, that the problem remains NP-complete for simple, 3-connected, plane Eulerian graphs for which all face boundaries are 3-cycles or 4-cycles. ...
We then apply this result to show that it is NP-complete to decide whether a linear hypergraph which is regular of degree 3 has a spanning tree. ...
