We say that a hypergraph $\\mathcal{H}$ is a \\emph{Berge}-$G$ if there is a bijection $f : E(G) \\rightarrow E(\\mathcal{H})$ such that for $e \\in E(G)$ we have $e \\subset f(e)$. This generalizes the established definitions of \"Berge path\" and \"Berge cycle\" to general graphs. For a fixed graph $G$ we examine the maximum possible size (i.e.\\ the sum of the cardinality of each edge) of a hypergraph with no Berge-$G$ as a subhypergraph. In the present paper we prove general bounds for this maximum when $G$ is an arbitrary graph. We also consider the specific case when $G$ is a complete bipartite graph and prove an analogue of the K\\H ov\\'ari-S\\'os-Tur\\'an theorem.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-05-29T18:02:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "extremal results", "berge-hypergraphs", "complete bipartite graph", "vertex set", "specific case" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
