High dimensional expansion using zig-zag product


Abstract in English

We wish to renew the discussion over recent combinatorial structures that are 3-uniform hypergraph expanders, viewing them in a more general perspective, shedding light on a previously unknown relation to the zig-zag product. We do so by introducing a new structure called triplet structure, that maintains the same local environment around each vertex. The structure is expected to yield, in some cases, a bounded family of hypergraph expanders whose 2-dimensional random walk converges. We have applied the results obtained here to several known constructions, obtaining a better expansion rate than previously known. Namely, we did so in the case of Conlons construction and the $S=[1,1,0]$ construction by Chapman, Linal and Peled.
