  • Finite Combinatorics Combinatoire Finie (Org: Robert Craigen And/Et
    Finite Combinatorics Combinatoire finie (Org: Robert Craigen and/et David Gunderson (Manitoba)) WAYNE BROUGHTON, University of British Columbia Okanagan Systems of Parallel Representatives In a finite affine plane of order n, a system of parallel representatives (SPR) is a set of n + 1 lines consisting of exactly one line from each parallel class of the plane. An SPR is tight if no three of its lines are incident on a common point; this is equivalent to a hyperoval in the dual of the associated projective plane of order n. We describe some basic properties of SPR’s and characterize tight SPR’s as those on which a certain sum-of-squares function attains the value zero. We then examine some necessary conditions for an SPR to be minimal with respect to this function, and apply our results to SPR’s in a hypothetical affine plane of order 12. ZOLTAN FUREDI, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign Color critical hypergraphs and forbidden configurations A k-uniform hypergraph (V, E) is 3-color-critical if it is not 2-colorable, but for every edge e the hypergraph (V, E − e) is 2-colorable. Lov´asz proved in 1976 that n |E| ≤ k − 1 for a 3-color-critical k-uniform hypergraph with n vertices. Here we give a new algebraic proof and prove a generalization that leads to a sharpening of Sauer’s bound for forb(m, F ), where F is a k-by-` 0, 1-matrix. Joint work with R. Anstee, B.
