A natural question, inspired by the famous Ryser-Brualdi-Stein Conjecture, is to determine the largest positive integer $g(r,n)$ such that every collection of $n$ matchings, each of size $n$, in an $r$-partite $r$-uniform hypergraph contains a rainbow matching of size $g(r,n)$. The parameter $g'(r,n)$ is defined identically with the exception that the host hypergraph is not required to be $r$-partite.
In this note, we improve the best known lower bounds on $g'(r,n)$ for all $r \geq 4$ and the upper bounds on $g(r,n)$ for all $r \geq 3$, provided $n$ is sufficiently large. More precisely, we show that if $r\ge3$ then $$\frac{2n}{r+1}-Θ_r(1)\le g'(r,n)\le g(r,n)\le n-Θ_r(n^{1-\frac{1}{r}}).$$ Interestingly, while it has been conjectured that $g(2,n)=g'(2,n)=n-1$, our results show that if $r\ge3$ then $g(r,n)$ and $g'(r,n)$ are bounded away from $n$ by a function which grows in $n$.
We also prove analogous bounds for the related problem where we are interested in the smallest size $s$ for which any collection of $n$ matchings of size $s$ in an ($r$-partite) $r$-uniform hypergraph contains a rainbow matching of size $n$.
A graph $G$ whose edges are coloured (not necessarily properly) contains a full rainbow matching if there is a matching $M$ that contains exactly one edge of each colour. We refute several conjectures on matchings in hypergraphs and full rainbow matchings in graphs, made by Aharoni and Berger and others.
A d-partite hypergraph is called *fractionally balanced* if there exists a non-negative, not identically zero, function on its edge set that has constant degrees in each vertex side. Using a topological version of Hall's theorem we prove lower bounds on the matching number of such hypergraphs. These bounds yield rainbow versions of the KKM theorem for products of simplices, which in turn are used to obtain some results on multiple-cake division, and on rainbow matchings in families of d-intervals.
For any $r$-graph $H$, we consider the problem of finding a rainbow $H$-factor in an $r$-graph $G$ with large minimum $\ell$-degree and an edge-colouring that is suitably bounded. We show that the asymptotic degree threshold is the same as that for finding an $H$-factor.
A hypergraph $H$ is properly colored if for every vertex $v\in V(H)$, all the edges incident to $v$ have distinct colors. In this paper, we show that if $H_{1}$, \cdots, $H_{s}$ are properly-colored $k$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices, where $n\geq3k^{2}s$, and $e(H_{i})>{{n}\choose {k}}-{{n-s+1}\choose {k}}$, then there exists a rainbow matching of size $s$, containing one edge from each $H_i$. This generalizes some previous results on the Erdős Matching Conjecture.
Let $k$ and $n$ be two integers, with $k\geq 3$, $n\equiv 0\pmod k$, and $n$ sufficiently large. We determine the $(k-1)$-degree threshold for the existence of a rainbow perfect matchings in $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph. This implies the result of Rödl, Ruciński, and Szemerédi on the $(k-1)$-degree threshold for the existence of perfect matchings in $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraphs. In our proof, we identify the extremal configurations of closeness, and consider whether or not the hypergraph is close to the extremal configuration. In addition, we also develop a novel absorbing device an…
A classical result of Erdős and Hajnal claims that for any integers $k, r, g \geq 2$ there is an $r$-uniform hypergraph of girth at least $g$ with chromatic number at least $k$. This implies that there are sparse hypergraphs such that in any coloring of their vertices with at most $k-1$ colors there is a monochromatic hyperedge. We show that for any integers $r, g\geq 2$ there is an $r$-uniform hypergraph of girth at least $g$ such that in any coloring of its vertices there is either a monochromatic or a rainbow (totally multicolored) edge. We give a probabilistic and a deterministic proof of …
Let $n$ be a sufficiently large integer with $n\equiv 0\pmod 4$ and let $F_i \subseteq{[n]\choose 4}$ where $i\in [n/4]$. We show that if each vertex of $F_i$ is contained in more than ${n-1\choose 3}-{3n/4\choose 3}$ edges, then $\{F_1, \ldots ,F_{n/4}\}$ admits a rainbow matching, i.e., a set of $n/4$ edges consisting of one edge from each $F_i$. This generalizes a deep result of Khan on perfect matchings in 4-uniform hypergraphs.
Kühn, Osthus, and Treglown and, independently, Khan proved that if $H$ is a $3$-uniform hypergraph with $n$ vertices such that $n\in 3\mathbb{Z}$ and large, and $δ_1(H)>{n-1\choose 2}-{2n/3\choose 2}$, then $H$ contains a perfect matching. In this paper, we show that for $n\in 3\mathbb{Z}$ sufficiently large, if $F_1, \ldots, F_{n/3}$ are 3-uniform hypergrapghs with a common vertex set and $δ_1(F_i)>{n-1\choose 2}-{2n/3\choose 2}$ for $i\in [n/3]$, then $\{F_1,\dots, F_{n/3}\}$ admits a rainbow matching, i.e., a matching consisting of one edge from each $F_i$. This is done by converting the ra…
Let $H$ be an edge colored hypergraph. We say that $H$ contains a \emph{rainbow} copy of a hypergraph $S$ if it contains an isomorphic copy of $S$ with all edges of distinct colors. We consider the following setting. A randomly edge colored random hypergraph $H\sim \mathcal H_c^k(n,p)$ is obtained by adding each $k$-subset of $[n]$ with probability $p$, and assigning it a color from $[c]$ uniformly, independently at random. As a first result we show that a typical $H\sim \mathcal H^2_c(n,p)$ (that is, a random edge colored graph) contains a rainbow Hamilton cycle, provided that $c=(1+o(1))n$ a…
Let $G$ be a simple graph that is properly edge coloured with $m$ colours and let $\M=\{M_1,\ldots, M_m\}$ be the set of $m$ matchings induced by the colours in $G$. Suppose that $m\le n-n^{c}$, where $c>9/10$, and every matching in $\M$ has size $n$. Then $G$ contains a full rainbow matching, i.e.\ a matching that contains exactly one edge from $M_i$ for each $1\le i\le m$. This answers an open problem of Pokrovskiy and gives an affirmative answer to a generalisation of a special case of a conjecture of Aharoni and Berger. Related results are also found for multigraphs with edges of bounded m…
We study rainbow-free colourings of $k$-uniform hypergraphs; that is, colourings that use $k$ colours but with the property that no hyperedge attains all colours. We show that $p^*=(k-1)(\ln n)/n$ is the threshold function for the existence of a rainbow-free colouring in a random $k$-uniform hypergraph.
One of the most interesting new developments in hypergraph colourings in these last few years has been Voloshin's notion of colourings of mixed hypergraphs. In this paper we shall study a specific instance of Voloshin's idea: a non-monochromatic non-rainbow (NMNR) colouring of a hypergraph is a colouring of its vertices such that every edge has at least two vertices coloured with different colours (non-monochromatic) and no edge has all of its vertices coloured with distinct colours (non-rainbow). Perhaps the most intriguing phenomenon of such colourings is that a hypergraph can have gaps in i…
Aharoni and Howard, and, independently, Huang, Loh, and Sudakov proposed the following rainbow version of Erdős matching conjecture: For positive integers $n,k,m$ with $n\ge km$, if each of the families $F_1,\ldots, F_m\subseteq {[n]\choose k}$ has size more than $\max\{\binom{n}{k} - \binom{n-m+1}{k}, \binom{km-1}{k}\}$, then there exist pairwise disjoint subsets $e_1,\dots, e_m$ such that $e_i\in F_i$ for all $i\in [m]$. We prove that there exists an absolute constant $n_0$ such that this rainbow version holds for $k=3$ and $n\geq n_0$. We convert this rainbow matching problem to a matching …
Let $H_{n,p,r}^{(k)}$ denote a randomly colored random hypergraph, constructed on the vertex set $[n]$ by taking each $k$-tuple independently with probability $p$, and then independently coloring it with a random color from the set $[r]$. Let $H$ be a $k$-uniform hypergraph of order $n$. An $\ell$-Hamilton cycle is a spanning subhypergraph $C$ of $H$ with $n/(k-\ell)$ edges and such that for some cyclic ordering of the vertices each edge of $C$ consists of $k$ consecutive vertices and every pair of adjacent edges in $C$ intersects in precisely $\ell$ vertices. In this note we study the existen…
In this paper, we prove a conjecture of Aharoni and Howard on the existence of rainbow (transversal) matchings in sufficiently large families $\mathcal F_1,\ldots, \mathcal F_s$ of tuples in $\{1,\ldots, n\}^k$, provided $s\ge 470.$
The Fano plane is the unique linear 3-uniform hypergraph on seven vertices and seven hyperedges. It was recently proved that, for all $n \geq 8$, the balanced complete bipartite 3-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices, denoted by $B_n$, is the 3-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices with the largest number of hyperedges that does not contain a copy of the Fano plane. For sufficiently large $r$ and $n$, we show that $B_n$ admits the largest number of $r$-edge colorings with no rainbow copy of the Fano plane.
El-Zanati et al proved that for any 1-factorization $\mathcal{F}$ of the complete uniform hypergraph $\mathcal {G}=K_{rn}^{(r)}$ with $r\geq 2$ and $n\geq 3$, there is a rainbow 1-factor. We generalize their result and show that in any proper coloring of the complete uniform hypergraph $\mathcal {G}=K_{rn}^{(r)}$ with $r\geq 2$ and $n\geq 3$, there is a rainbow 1-factor.
Given a coloring of the edges of a multi-hypergraph, a rainbow t-matching is a collection of t disjoint edges, each having a different color. In this note we study the problem of finding a rainbow $t$-matching in an r-partite r-uniform multi-hypergraph whose edges are colored with f colors such that every color class is a matching of size t. This problem was posed by Aharoni and Berger, who asked to determine the minimum number of colors which guarantees a rainbow matching. We improve on the known upper bounds for this problem for all values of the parameters. In particular for every fixed r, …
In this paper, we develop a new rainbow Hamilton framework, which is of independent interest, settling the problem proposed by Gupta, Hamann, Müyesser, Parczyk, and Sgueglia when $k=3$, and draw the general conclusion for any $k\geq3$ as follows. A $k$-graph system $\textbf{H}=\{H_i\}_{i\in[n]}$ is a family of not necessarily distinct $k$-graphs on the same $n$-vertex set $V$, moreover, a $k$-graph $H$ on $V$ is rainbow if $E(H)\subseteq \bigcup_{i\in[n]}E(H_i)$ and $|E(H)\cap E(H_i)|\leq1$ for $i\in[n]$. We show that given $γ> 0$, sufficiently large $n$ and an $n$-vertex $k$-graph system $\te…
We prove that any family $E_1, \ldots , E_{\lceil rn \rceil}$ of (not necessarily distinct) sets of edges in an $r$-uniform hypergraph, each having a fractional matching of size $n$, has a rainbow fractional matching of size $n$ (that is, a set of edges from distinct $E_i$'s which supports such a fractional matching). When the hypergraph is $r$-partite and $n$ is an integer, the number of sets needed goes down from $rn$ to $rn-r+1$. The problem solved here is a fractional version of the corresponding problem about rainbow matchings, which was solved by Drisko and by Aharoni and Berger in the c…
Let $c$ be an edge-coloring of the complete $n$-vertex graph $K_n$. The problem of finding properly colored and rainbow Hamilton cycles in $c$ was initiated in 1976 by Bollobás and Erd\H os and has been extensively studied since then. Recently it was extended to the hypergraph setting by Dudek, Frieze and Ruciński. We generalize these results, giving sufficient local (resp. global) restrictions on the colorings which guarantee a properly colored (resp. rainbow) copy of a given hypergraph $G$. We also study multipartite analogues of these questions. We give (up to a constant factor) optimal suf…
For any posotive integer $m$, let $[m]:=\{1,\ldots,m\}$. Let $n,k,t$ be positive integers. Aharoni and Howard conjectured that if, for $i\in [t]$, $\mathcal{F}_i\subset[n]^k:= \{(a_1,\ldots,a_k): a_j\in [n] \mbox{ for } j\in [k]\}$ and $|\mathcal{F}_i|>(t-1)n^{k-1}$, then there exist $M\subseteq [n]^k$ such that $|M|=t$ and $|M\cap \mathcal{F}_i|=1$ for $i\in [t]$ We show that this conjecture holds when $n\geq 3(k-1)(t-1)$. Let $n, t, k_1\ge k_2\geq \ldots\geq k_t $ be positive integers. Huang, Loh and Sudakov asked for the maximum $Π_{i=1}^t |{\cal R}_i|$ over all ${\cal R}=\{{\cal R}_1, \ldo…
An edge-coloured graph $G$ is rainbow connected if there exists a rainbow path between any two vertices. A graph $G$ is said to be $k$-rainbow connected if there exists an edge-colouring of $G$ with at most $k$ colours that is rainbow connected. For integers $n$ and $k$, let $t(n,k)$ denote the minimum number of edges in $k$-rainbow connected graphs of order $n$. In this note, we prove that $t(n,k) = \lceil k(n-2)/(k-1) \rceil$ for all $n, k \ge 3$
A rainbow matching in an edge-coloured graph is a matching such that its edges have distinct colours. We show that every properly edge-coloured graph $G$ with $|G| \ge (9δ(G) -5)/2$ has a rainbow matching of size $δ(G)$, improving a result of Diemunsch et al.
A conjecture of the first two authors is that $n$ matchings of size $n$ in any graph have a rainbow matching of size $n-1$. We prove a lower bound of $\frac{2}{3}n-1$, improving on the trivial $\frac{1}{2}n$, and an analogous result for hypergraphs. For $\{C_3,C_5\}$-free graphs and for disjoint matchings we obtain a lower bound of $\frac{3n}{4}-O(1)$. We also discuss a conjecture on rainbow alternating paths, that if true would yield a lower bound of $n-\sqrt{2n}$. We prove the non-alternating (ordinary paths) version of this conjecture.
A rainbow $q$-coloring of a $k$-uniform hypergraph is a $q$-coloring of the vertex set such that every hyperedge contains all $q$ colors. We prove that given a rainbow $(k - 2\lfloor \sqrt{k}\rfloor)$-colorable $k$-uniform hypergraph, it is NP-hard to find a normal $2$-coloring. Previously, this was only known for rainbow $\lfloor k/2 \rfloor$-colorable hypergraphs (Guruswami and Lee, SODA 2015). We also study a generalization which we call rainbow $(q, p)$-coloring, defined as a coloring using $q$ colors such that every hyperedge contains at least $p$ colors. We prove that given a rainbow $(k…
A balanced edge-coloring of the complete graph is an edge-coloring such that every vertex is incident to each color the same number of times. In this short note, we present a construction of a balanced edge-coloring with six colors of the complete graph on $n=13^k$ vertices, for every positive integer $k$, with no rainbow $K_4$. This solves a problem by Erdős and Tuza.
Let $[n]$ denote the set $\{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$ and $\mathcal{F}^{(r)}_{n,k,a}$ be an $r$-uniform hypergraph on the vertex set $[n]$ with edge set consisting of all the $r$-element subsets of $[n]$ that contains at least $a$ vertices in $[ak+a-1]$. For $n\geq 2rk$, Frankl proved that $\mathcal{F}^{(r)}_{n,k,1}$ maximizes the number of edges in $r$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices with the matching number at most $k$. Huang, Loh and Sudakov considered a multicolored version of the Erdős matching conjecture, and provided a sufficient condition on the number of edges for a multicolored hypergra…
A tree $T$, in an edge-colored graph $G$, is called {\em a rainbow tree} if no two edges of $T$ are assigned the same color. For a vertex subset $S\in V(G)$, a tree that connects $S$ in $G$ is called an $S$-tree. A {\em $k$-rainbow coloring} of $G$ is an edge coloring of $G$ having the property that for every set $S$ of $k$ vertices of $G$, there exists a rainbow $S$-tree $T$ in $G$. The minimum number of colors needed in a $k$-rainbow coloring of $G$ is the {\em $k$-rainbow index of $G$}, denoted by $rx_k(G)$. In this paper, we obtain the exact values of $rx_3(K_{2,t})$ for any $t\geq 1$.
A rainbow subgraph in an edge-coloured graph is a subgraph such that its edges have distinct colours. The minimum colour degree of a graph is the smallest number of distinct colours on the edges incident with a vertex over all vertices. Kostochka, Pfender, and Yancey showed that every edge-coloured graph on $n$ vertices with minimum colour degree at least $k$ contains a rainbow matching of size at least $k$, provided $n\geq (17/4)k^2$. In this paper, we show that $n\geq 4k-4$ is sufficient for $k \ge 4$.
Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ with an edge-coloring $c$, and let $δ^c(G)$ denote the minimum color degree of $G$. A subgraph $F$ of $G$ is called rainbow if all edges of $F$ have pairwise distinct colors. There have been a lot results on rainbow cycles of edge-colored graphs. In this paper, we show that (i) if $δ^c(G)>\frac{3n-3}{4}$, then every vertex of $G$ is contained in a rainbow triangle; (ii) $δ^c(G)>\frac{3n}{4}$, then every vertex of $G$ is contained in a rainbow $C_4$; and (iii) if $G$ is complete, $n\geq 8k-18$ and $δ^c(G)>\frac{n-1}{2}+k$, then $G$ contains a rainbow cycle of len…
An edge-colored hypergraph is rainbow if all of its edges have different colors. Given two hypergraphs $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{G}$, the anti-Ramsey number $ar(\mathcal{G}, \mathcal{H})$ of $\mathcal{H}$ in $\mathcal{G}$ is the maximum number of colors needed to color the edges of $\mathcal{G}$ so that there does not exist a rainbow copy of $\mathcal{H}$. Li et al. determined the anti-Ramsey number of $k$-matchings in complete bipartite graphs. Jin and Zang showed the uniqueness of the extremal coloring. In this paper, as a generalization of these results, we determine the anti-Ramsey numbe…
An arc-coloured digraph $D$ is said to be \emph{rainbow connected} if for every two vertices $u$ and $v$ there is an $uv$-path all whose arcs have different colours. The minimun number of colours required to make the digraph rainbow connected is called the \emph{rainbow connection number} of $D$, denoted $\stackrel{\rightarrow}{rc}(D)$. In \cite{Dorbec} it was showed that if $T$ is a strong tournament with $n\geq 5$ vertices, then $2\leq \stackrel{\rightarrow}{rc}(T)\leq n-1$; and that for every $n$ and $k$ such that $3\leq k\leq n-1$, there exists a tournament $T$ on $n$ vertices such that $\…
An edge-colored graph $G$, where adjacent edges may have the same color, is {\it rainbow connected} if every two vertices of $G$ are connected by a path whose edge has distinct colors. A graph $G$ is {\it $k$-rainbow connected} if one can use $k$ colors to make $G$ rainbow connected. For integers $n$ and $d$ let $t(n,d)$ denote the minimum size (number of edges) in $k$-rainbow connected graphs of order $n$. Schiermeyer got some exact values and upper bounds for $t(n,d)$. However, he did not get a lower bound of $t(n,d)$ for $3\leq d<\lceil\frac{n}{2}\rceil $. In this paper, we improve his lowe…
Jungić et al (2003) defined $T_{k}$ as the minimal number $t \in \mathbb{N}$ such that there is a rainbow arithmetic progression of length $k$ in every equinumerous $t$-coloring of $[t n]$ for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$. They proved that for every $k \geq 3$, $\lfloor \frac{k^2}{4} \rfloor < T_{k} \leq \frac{k(k-1)^2}{2}$ and conjectured that $T_{k} = Θ(k^2)$. We prove for all $ε> 0$ that $T_{k} = O(k^{5/2+ε})$ using the Kővári-Sós-Turán theorem and Wigert's bound on the divisor function.
An edge-colored graph $G$, where adjacent edges may be colored the same, is rainbow connected if any two vertices of $G$ are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colors. The rainbow connection number $rc(G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is the smallest number of colors that are needed in order to make $G$ rainbow connected. Caro et al. showed an upper bound $rc(G)\leq n-δ$ for a connected graph $G$ of order $n$ with minimum degree $δ$ in "On rainbow connection, Electron. J. Combin. 15(2008), R57". Recently, Shiermeyer gave it a generalization that $rc(G)\leq n- \frac{σ_2} 2$ in "Bounds fo…
We study the following problem. How many distinct copies of $H$ can an $n$-vertex graph $G$ have, if $G$ does not contain a rainbow $F$, that is, a copy of $F$ where each edge is contained in a different copy of $H$? The case $H=K_r$ is equivalent to the Turán problem for Berge hypergraphs, which has attracted several researchers recently. We also explore the connection of our problem to the so-called generalized Turán problems. We obtain several exact results. In the particularly interesting symmetric case where $H=F$, we completely solve the case $F$ is the 3-edge path, and asymptitically so…
Much recent progress in hypergraph Ramsey theory has focused on constructions that lead to lower bounds for the corresponding Ramsey numbers. In this paper, we consider applications of these results to Gallai colorings. That is, we focus on the Ramsey numbers resulting from only considering $t$-colorings of the hyperedges of complete $r$-uniform hypergraphs in which no rainbow $K_{r+1}^{(r)}$-subhypergraphs exists. We also provide new constructions which imply improved lower bounds for many $3$ and $4$-uniform Ramsey numbers and $3$ and $4$-uniform Gallai-Ramsey numbers.
We study the mixed Ramsey number maxR(n,K_m,K_r), defined as the maximum number of colours in an edge-colouring of the complete graph K_n, such that K_n has no monochromatic complete subgraph on m vertices and no rainbow complete subgraph on r vertices. Improving an upper bound of Axenovich and Iverson, we show that maxR(n,K_m,K_4) <= n^{3/2}\sqrt{2m} for all m >= 3. Further, we discuss a possible way to improve their lower bound on maxR(n,K_4,K_4) based on incidence graphs of finite projective planes.
For a fixed graph $F$ and an integer $t$, the \dfn{rainbow saturation number} of $F$, denoted by $sat_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(F))$, is defined as the minimum number of edges in a $t$-edge-colored graph on $n$ vertices which does not contain a \dfn{rainbow copy} of $F$, i.e., a copy of $F$ all of whose edges receive a different color, but the addition of any missing edge in any color from $[t]$ creates such a rainbow copy. Barrus, Ferrara, Vardenbussche and Wenger prove that $sat_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(P_\ell))\ge n-1$ for $\ell\ge 4$ and $sat_t(n,\mathfrak{R}(P_\ell))\le \lceil \frac{n}{\ell-1} \rceil \cdo…
Let $f(n,r,k)$ be the minimal number such that every hypergraph larger than $f(n,r,k)$ contained in $\binom{[n]}{r}$ contains a matching of size $k$, and let $g(n,r,k)$ be the minimal number such that every hypergraph larger than $g(n,r,k)$ contained in the $r$-partite $r$-graph $[n]^{r}$ contains a matching of size $k$. The Erdős-Ko-Rado theorem states that $f(n,r,2)=\binom{n-1}{r-1}$~~($r \le \frac{n}{2}$) and it is easy to show that $g(n,r,k)=(k-1)n^{r-1}$. The conjecture inspiring this paper is that if $F_1,F_2,\ldots,F_k\subseteq \binom{[n]}{r}$ are of size larger than $f(n,r,k)$ or $F_1,…
An edge-colored graph $G$ is rainbow connected if any two vertices are connected by a path whose edges have distinct colors. The rainbow connection number of a connected graph $G$, denoted by $rc(G)$, is the smallest number of colors that are needed in order to make $G$ rainbow connected. Following an idea of Caro et al., in this paper we also investigate the rainbow connection number of dense graphs. We show that for $k\geq 2$, if $G$ is a non-complete graph of order $n$ with minimum degree $δ(G)\geq \frac{n}{2}-1+log_{k}{n}$, or minimum degree-sum $σ_{2}(G)\geq n-2+2log_{k}{n}$, then $rc(G)\…
We show how to adjust a very nice coupling argument due to McDiarmid in order to prove/reprove in a novel way results concerning Hamilton cycles in various models of random graph and hypergraphs. In particular, we firstly show that for $k\geq 3$, if $pn^{k-1}/\log n$ tends to infinity, then a random $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices, with edge probability $p$, with high probability (w.h.p.) contains a loose Hamilton cycle, provided that $(k-1)|n$. This generalizes results of Frieze, Dudek and Frieze, and reproves a result of Dudek, Frieze, Loh and Speiss. Secondly, we show that there exis…
Let $HP_{n,m,k}$ be drawn uniformly from all $k$-uniform, $k$-partite hypergraphs where each part of the partition is a disjoint copy of $[n]$. We let $HP^{(\k)}_{n,m,k}$ be an edge colored version, where we color each edge randomly from one of $\k$ colors. We show that if $\k=n$ and $m=Kn\log n$ where $K$ is sufficiently large then w.h.p. there is a rainbow colored perfect matching. I.e. a perfect matching in which every edge has a different color. We also show that if $n$ is even and $m=Kn\log n$ where $K$ is sufficiently large then w.h.p. there is a rainbow colored Hamilton cycle in $G^{(n)…
