A conjecture on hypergraph orientation

Tamás Király



Abstract

We propose a conjecture on the orientation of hypergraphs which have the property that no hyperedge intersects minimally a regular family of sets. The truth of the conjecture would imply that non-perfect graphs are not kernel-solvable - the only known proof of which is based on the Strong Perfect Graph Theorem. We show that the conjecture is true if the hypergraph contains a connected graph.
