contents Geometric motivations warranted the study of hypergraphs on ordered vertices that have no pair of hyperedges that induce an alternation of some given length. Such hypergraphs are called ABA-free, ABAB-free and so on. Since then various coloring and other combinatorial results were proved about these families of hypergraphs. We prove a characterization in terms of their incidence matrices which avoids using the ordering of the vertices. Using this characterization, we prove new results about the dual hypergraphs of ABAB-free hypergraphs. In particular, we show that dual-ABAB-free hypergraphs are not always proper $2$-colorable even if we restrict ourselves to hyperedges that are larger than some parameter $m$.
