Topological Structures of Sets and their Subsets

History and Overview 2025-03-27 v1 Combinatorics

Abstract

For real application and theoretical investigation of ordinary hypergraphs and non-ordinary hypergraphs, researchers need to establish standard rules and feasible operating methods. We propose a visualization tool for investigating hypergraphs by means of the natural topological structure of finite sets and their subsets, so we are able to construct various non-ordinary hypergraphs, and to reveal topological properties (such as hamiltonian cycles, maximal planar graphs), colorings, connectivity, hypergraph group, isomorphism and homomorphism of hypergraphs.
