We consider the problem of $q$-colouring a $k$-uniform random hypergraph, where $q,k \geq 3$, and determine the rigidity threshold. For edge densities above the rigidity threshold, we show that almost all solutions have a linear number of…

We study in this paper the structure of solutions in the random hypergraph coloring problem and the phase transitions they undergo when the density of constraints is varied. Hypergraph coloring is a constraint satisfaction problem where…

A linearly ordered (LO) $k$-colouring of an $r$-uniform hypergraph assigns an integer from $\{1, \ldots, k \}$ to every vertex so that, in every edge, the (multi)set of colours has a unique maximum. Equivalently, for $r=3$, if two vertices…

A linearly ordered (LO) $k$-colouring of a hypergraph is a colouring of its vertices with colours $1, \dots, k$ such that each edge contains a unique maximal colour. Deciding whether an input hypergraph admits LO $k$-colouring with a fixed…

A linearly ordered (LO) $k$-colouring of a hypergraph assigns to each vertex a colour from the set $\{0,1,\ldots,k-1\}$ in such a way that each hyperedge has a unique maximum element. Barto, Batistelli, and Berg conjectured that it is…

A 2-coloring of a hypergraph is a mapping from its vertices to a set of two colors such that no edge is monochromatic. Let $H_k(n,m)$ be a random $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices formed by picking $m$ edges uniformly, independently…

We study the problem of bi-chromatic coloring of hypergraphs in the LOCAL distributed model of computation. This problem can easily be solved by a randomized local algorithm with no communication. However, it is not known how to solve it…

We consider the problem of inferring a matching hidden in a weighted random $k$-hypergraph. We assume that the hyperedges' weights are random and distributed according to two different densities conditioning on the fact that they belong to…

Let $r$ be an integer with $r\ge 2$ and $G$ be a connected $r$-uniform hypergraph with $m$ edges. By refining the broken cycle theorem for hypergraphs, we show that if $k>\frac{m-1}{\ln(1+\sqrt{2})}\approx 1.135 (m-1)$ then the $k$-list…

The inclusion relation between simple objects in the plane may be used to define geometric set systems, or hypergraphs. Properties of various types of colorings of these hypergraphs have been the subject of recent investigations, with…

In this paper, we study vertex colorings of hypergraphs in which all color class sizes differ by at most one (balanced colorings) and each hyperedge contains at least two vertices of the same color (rainbow-free colorings). For any…

We extend a recent construction concerning polychromatic colorings of hereditary hypergraph families. For every integer $h\ge 4$ we construct a $(2h-1)$-uniform hypergraph which has no polychromatic $3$-coloring, but all of whose $h$-heavy…

A $k$-coloring of a tournament is a partition of its vertices into $k$ acyclic sets. Deciding if a tournament is 2-colorable is NP-hard. A natural problem, akin to that of coloring a 3-colorable graph with few colors, is to color a…

List colouring is an NP-complete decision problem even if the total number of colours is three. It is hard even on planar bipartite graphs. We give a polynomial-time algorithm for solving list colouring of permutation graphs with a bounded…
