By now there are several (very different) proofs of this lemma, obtained by Gowers, by Nagle-R\\\"odl-Schacht-Skokan and by Tao. Unfortunately, what all these proofs have in common is that they yield regular partitions whose order is given by the $k$-th Ackermann function. In a recent paper we have shown that these bounds are unavoidable for $3$-uniform hypergraphs. In this paper we extend this result by showing that such Ackermann-type bounds are unavoidable for every $k \\ge 2$, thus confirming a prediction of Tao.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-04-16T06:14:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "tight bound", "szemeredis graph regularity lemma", "uniform hypergraphs", "yield regular partitions", "hypergraph regularity lemma" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
