Lower bounds on the ratio of the size of the shadow and the size of the hypergraph are given as a function of the degree bound and $k$. We show that cliques are extremal for a long range of degree bounds, but not for every bound. We give a general, but not sharp lower bound on the shadow ratio and show, that sometimes we can get extremal hypergraphs by deleting disjoint maximal matchings from a clique.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-09-16T19:21:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05D05", "05C65", "05C35" ], "keywords": [ "bounded degree", "degree bound", "deleting disjoint maximal matchings", "sharp lower bound", "uniform hypergraphs" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
