Abstract

A Berge-path of length k in a hypergraph H is a sequence v1, e1, v2, e2, ⋯, vk, ek, vk + 1 of distinct vertices and hyperedges with vi + 1∈ ei, ei + 1 for all i∈ [ k]. Füredi, Kostochka and Luo, and independently Győri, Salia and Zamora determined the maximum number of hyperedges in an n-vertex, connected, r-uniform hypergraph that does not contain a Berge-path of length k provided k is large enough compared to r. They also determined the unique extremal hypergraph H1. We prove a stability version of this result by presenting another construction H2 and showing that any n-vertex, connected, r-uniform hypergraph without a Berge-path of length k, that contains more than | H2| hyperedges must be a subhypergraph of the extremal hypergraph H1, provided k is large enough compared to r.
