Setis less thanin thecolex orderingifmax(A△B)∈B. In 1980’s, Frankl and Füredi conjectured that ther-uniform graph withmedges consisting of the firstmsets ofin the colex ordering has the largest Lagrangian among allr-uniform graphs withmedges. A result of Motzkin and Straus implies that this conjecture is true forr=2. This conjecture seems to be challenging even forr=3. For a hypergraphH=(V,E), the setT(H)={|e|:e∈E} is called theedge typeofH. In this paper, we study non-uniform hypergraphs and defineL(H) a generalized Lagrangian of a non-uniform hypergraphHin which edges of different types have different weights. We study the following two questions: 1. LetHbe a hypergraph withmedges and edge typeT. LetCm,Tdenote the hypergraph with edge typeTandmedges formed by taking the firstmsets with cardinality inTin the colex ordering. DoesL(H)≤L(Cm,T) hold? IfT={r}, then this question is the question by Frankl and Füredi. 2. Given a hypergraphH, find a minimum subhypergraphGofHsuch thatL(G) =L(H). A result of Motzkin and Straus gave a complete answer to both questions ifHis a graph. In this paper, we give a complete answer to both questions for {1,2}-hypergraphs. Regarding the first question, we give a result for {1,r1,r2,…,rl}-hypergraph. We also show the connection between the generalized Lagrangian of {1,r1,r2,⋯ ,rl}-hypergraphs and {r1,r2,⋯ ,rl}-hypergraphs concerning the second question.
