There are some interesting characterizations available for line graphs of linear ''k''-uniform hypergraphs due to various authors ({{harvs|last1 = Naik|last2 = Rao|last3 = Shrikhande|last4 = Singhi|year = 1980|year2 = 1982|nb = yes}}, {{harvnb|Jacobson|Kézdy|Lehel|1997}}, {{harvnb|Metelsky|Tyshkevich|1997}}, and {{harvnb|Zverovich|2004}}) under constraints on the minimum degree or the minimum edge degree of G. Minimum edge degree at least ''k''<sup>3</sup>-2''k''<sup>2</sup>+1 in {{harvtxt|Naik et al.|Rao|Shrikhande|Singhi|1980}} is reduced to 2''k''<sup>2</sup>-3''k''+1 in {{harvtxt|Jacobson|Kézdy|Lehel|1997}} and {{harvtxt|Zverovich|2004}} to characterize line graphs of ''k''-uniform linear hypergraphs for any ''k'' ≥ 3.
 
The complexity of recognizing line graphs of linear ''k''-uniform hypergraphs without any constraint on minimum degree (or minimum edge-degree) is not known. For ''k'' = 3 and minimum degree at least 19, recognition is possible in polynomial time ({{harvnb|Jacobson|Kézdy|Lehel|1997}} and {{harvnb|Metelsky|Tyshkevich|1997}}). {{harvtxt|Skums|Suzdal'|Tyshkevich|2005}} reduced the minimum degree to 10.
