contents <p>Abstract. A finite hypergraph generalizes an ordinary graph by allowing a hyperedge to join any nonempty<br>subset of vertices, thereby capturing genuine multiway interactions. Building on this idea, a finite SuperHyper<br>Graph is obtained by iterating the powerset construction, so that set-valued objects created at one level may<br>serve as vertices or edge endpoints at the next, yielding a principled representation of hierarchical and multi<br>layer relational structure. In a different direction, a Recursive HyperGraph permits hyperedges to contain not<br>only ordinary vertices but also lower-level hyperedges as elements, enabling nested, self-referential incidence up<br>to a prescribed recursion depth. In this paper, we integrate these two extensions: we formalize recursion within<br>the SuperHyperGraph setting and introduce the notion of a Recursive SuperHyperGraph, which simultaneously<br>captures vertex hierarchy and recursive edge nesting.</p> <p><br>Keywords: Recursive SuperHyperGraph, HyperGraph, SuperHyperGraph, Recursive HyperGraph</p>
