Abstract

Let Hn,(pm)m=2,,MH_{n,(p_m)_{m=2,\ldots,M}} be a random non-uniform hypergraph of dimension MM on 2n2n vertices, where the vertices are split into two disjoint sets of size nn, and colored by two distinct colors. Each non-monochromatic edge of size m=2,,Mm=2,\ldots,M is independently added with probability pmp_m. We show that if p2,,pMp_2,\ldots,p_M are such that the expected number of edges in the hypergraph is at least dnlnndn\ln n, for some d>0d>0 sufficiently large, then with probability (1o(1))(1-o(1)), one can find a proper 2-coloring of Hn,(pm)m=2,,MH_{n,(p_m)_{m=2,\ldots,M}} in polynomial time. We present a polynomial time algorithm for hypergraph 2-coloring, and provide discussions on extension of the approach for kk-coloring of non-uniform hypergraphs.
