Abstract
Our final problem is one in graph representations. We develop a lemma on traces of hypergraphs, extending results of Balogh and Bollobas. We then use this lemma, along with probabilistic methods, to show that for every positive integer k, almost every graph has no k-minimum-difference-representation. This answers a question of Boros, Gurvich, and Meshulam.
