Abstract

Let Ct denote the loose cycle on t = 2s vertices, that is, the 3-uniform hypergraph obtained from a graph cycle C on s vertices by replacing each edge e = { u, v} of C with the edge triple { u, xe, v\} , where xe is uniquely assigned to e. We will give a tight minimum degree condition that guarantees all sufficiently large 3-uniform hypergraphs on n ∈ tZ vertices contain n t vertex disjoint copies of Ct.
