Hypergraphs and Whitney's theorem on edge-isomorphisms of graphs

AbstractThis paper presents a new proof of Whitney's theorem on edge-isomorphisms of graphs and extends Whitney's theorem to hypergraphs. Whitney's theorem asserts that any two edge-isomorphic graphs of order at least 5 have their edge-isomorphism induced by a node-isomorphism isomorphism.
