DeMarco and Kahn proved this for $p>K \\sqrt{\\log n/n}$ for some constant $K$, and apart from the value of the constant, this bound is the best possible. Denote by $T_3$ the 3-uniform hypergraph with vertex set $\\{a,b,c,d,e\\}$ and edge set $\\{abc,ade,bde\\}$. Frankl and F\\\"uredi showed that the maximum 3-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices containing no copy of $T_3$ is tripartite for $n> 3000$. For some integer $k$, let $G^k(n,p)$ be the random $k$-uniform hypergraph. Balogh et al. proved that for $p>K \\log n/n$ for some constant $K$, every maximum $T_3$-free subhypergraph of $G^3(n,p)$ w.h.p. is tripartite and it does not hold when $p=0.1 \\sqrt{\\log n}/n$. Denote by $T_4$ the 4-uniform hypergraph with vertex set $\\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7\\}$ and edge set $\\{1234,1235,4567\\}$. Pikhurko proved that there is an $n_0$ such that for all $n\\ge n_0$, the maximum 4-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices containing no copy of $T_4$ is 4-partite. In this paper, we extend this type of extremal problem in random 4-uniform hypergraphs. We show that for some constant $K$ and $p>K \\log n/n$, w.h.p. every maximum $T_4$-free subhypergraph of $G^4(n,p)$ is 4-partite.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-11-13T11:22:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C65", "05C35", "05C80", "05C75" ], "keywords": [ "mantels theorem", "free subhypergraph", "edge set", "vertex set", "maximum triangle-free subgraph" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1411.3504G" } } }
