Abstract

This presentation aims to introduce the theory of hypergraphs as well as their basic properties. We will see hypergraphs as a generalization of graphs and we will try to generalize graph parameters to hypergraphs. We will give some examples of possible uses in both literature and artificial intelligence, and sociology.
