Hypergraphs, Quasi-randomness, and Conditions for Regularity

Haviland and Thomason and Chung and Graham were the first to investigate systematically some properties of quasi-random hypergraphs. In particular, in a series of articles, Chung and Graham considered several quite disparate properties of random-like hypergraphs of density 1/2 and proved that they are in fact equivalent. The central concept in their work turned out to be the so called deviation of a hypergraph. They proved that having small deviation is equivalent to a variety of other properties that describe quasi-randomness. In this paper, we consider the concept of discrepancy for k-uniform hypergraphs with an arbitrary constant density d (0
