In this paper, we address kernelizations of the \textsc{Vertex Cover} problem on 3-uniform hypergraphs. We show that this problem admits a linear kernel in three classes of 3-uniform hypergraphs. We also obtain lower and upper bounds on the kernel size for them by the parametric duality.12 pagesComputational ComplexityF.1.3Linear Kernelizations for Restricted 3-Hitting Set Problemstext
