Answering a question of Alon and Shapira, we prove an induced removal lemma for $D_2$ having polynomial bounds. We also prove an Erd\\H{o}s-Hajnal-type result: every induced $D_2$-free hypergraph on $n$ vertices contains a clique or an independent set of size $n^{c}$ for some absolute constant $c > 0$. In the case of both problems, $D_2$ is the only nontrivial $k$-uniform hypergraph with $k\\geq 3$ which admits a polynomial bound.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-09-10T15:43:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "vertices spanning", "polynomial bound", "uniform hypergraph", "absolute constant", "independent set" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
