A note on the Turán number for the traces of hypergraphs

Abstract: Let $\mathcal{H}$ be an $r$-uniform hypergraph and $F$ be a graph. We say $\mathcal{H}$ contains $F$ as a trace if there exists some set $S\subseteq V(\mathcal{H})$ such that $\mathcal{H}|{S}:={E\cap S: E\in E(\mathcal{H})}$ contains a subgraph isomorphic to $F.$ Let $ex_r(n,Tr(F))$ denote the maximum number of edges of an $n$-vertex $r$-uniform hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ which does not contain $F$ as a trace. In this paper, we improve the lower bounds of $ex_r(n,Tr(F))$ when $F$ is a star, and give some optimal cases. We also improve the upper bound for the case when $\mathcal{H}$ is $3$-uniform and $F$ is $K{2,t}$ when $t$ is small.
