Abstract: | We give a competitive algorithm to identify all d defective edges in a hypergraph with d unknown. Damaschke did the d=1 case for 2-graphs, Triesch extended the d=1 case to r-graphs, and Johann did the general d case for 2-graphs. So ours is the first attempt to solve the searching for defective edges problem in its full generality. Further, all the above three papers assumed d known. We give a competitive algorithm where d is unknown. |
