Abstract

In this paper we prove that the problem APM(k,r,c) of deciding whether a given k 驴uniform hypergraph H, with minimum (k 驴 1) 驴wise vertex degree at least c|V(H)|, contains a matching missing exactly r vertices, that is, a set of disjoint edges of size at least (|V(H)| 驴 r)/k, is NP-complete for $c while for $c\frac 1k,$ and r 0 we provide a polynomial time algorithm for the corresponding search problem.
