Hypergraph regularity and random sampling
share
Suppose a k-uniform hypergraph H that satisfies a certain regularity instance (that is, there is a partition of H given by the hypergraph regularity lemma into a bounded number of quasirandom subhypergraphs of prescribed densities). We prove that with high probability a large enough uniform random sample of the vertex set of H also admits the same regularity instance. Here the crucial feature is that the error term measuring the quasirandomness of the subhypergraphs requires only an arbitrarily small additive correction. This has applications to combinatorial property testing. The graph case of the sampling result was proved by Alon, Fischer, Newman and Shapira.
