The jump threshold conjecture for 3-uniform hypergraphs
The jump threshold conjecture for 3-uniform hypergraphs
For a -uniform hypergraph, a number is called a jump if there exists such that every sufficiently large -uniform hypergraph with edge density at least contains a subhypergraph of positive density whose edge density is at least ; otherwise, is a non-jump.
Jump threshold conjecture. All numbers in are jumps and all numbers in are non-jumps.
This conjecture would determine the complete jump spectrum for -uniform hypergraphs. In particular, together with the theorem that is a non-jump, it would imply that is the exact threshold between jumps and non-jumps and would resolve Erdős's question about whether is a jump.
