The Hypergraphs package is a collection of commands for manipulating hypergraphs.

All hypergraphs of this package are undirected, thus they are a generalization of undirected graphs, where any edge (then called a hyperedge) can have more than two elements.

Hypergraphs arise naturally in many areas of science. Some operations on hypergraphs, such as the computation of transversal hypergraph, are used in machine learning, indexing of databases, data mining, to name a few application areas.

Below is a list of all commands in the Hypergraphs package.

The Hypergraphs package has one subpackage. It is called ExampleHypergraphs. It contains the following commands.

The Hypergraphs package was introduced in Maple 2024.
