Abstract: Hypernetworks are ubiquitous in real-world systems. They provide a powerful means of accurately depicting networks of different types of entity and will attract more attention from researchers in the future. Most previous hypernetwork research has been focused on the application and modeling of uniform hypernetworks, which are based on uniform hypergraphs. However, random hypernetworks are generally more common, therefore, it is useful to investigate the evolution mechanisms of random hypernetworks. In this paper, we construct three dynamic evolutional models of hypernetworks, namely the equal-probability random hypernetwork model, the Poisson-probability random hypernetwork model and the certain-probability random hypernetwork model. Furthermore, we analyze the hyperdegree distributions of the three models with mean-field theory, and we simulate each model numerically with different parameter values. The simulation results agree well with the results of our theoretical analysis, and the findings indicate that our models could help understand the structure and evolution mechanisms of real systems.
