摘要
We consider the problem of covering the complete r-uniform hypergraphs on n vertices using complete r-partite graphs. We obtain lower bounds on the size of such a covering. For small values of r our result implies a lower bound of OMEGA((e(r)/r square-root r)n log n) on the size of any such covering. This improves the previous bound of OMEGA(rn log n) due to Snir. We also obtain good lower bounds on the size of a family of perfect hash function using simple arguments.
