We show that, unlike in the graph case, the multiplicative constant is smaller with the assumption of connectivity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-10-23T16:17:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "connected hypergraphs", "maximum size", "graph case", "berge path", "maximum number" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
