Poisson limit conjecture for subsystems of Steiner triple systems
Poisson limit conjecture for subsystems of Steiner triple systems
Let be the set of positive integers for which Steiner triple systems of order exist. For an Steiner triple system of order , let the number of its subsystems of order be the random variable under the uniform distribution on Steiner triple systems of order . Poisson limit conjecture. As through values in , the distribution of the number of subsystems of order tends to a Poisson distribution with expected value when and expected value when . The conjecture is motivated by a random hypergraph model whose limiting expected values are for order-seven subsystems and for larger subsystems; the source provides no proof or resolution.
