Minimum pair degree condition for tight Hamiltonian cycles in $4$-uniform hypergraphs

Combinatorics 2020-12-18 v1

Abstract

We show that every 4-uniform hypergraph with nn vertices and minimum pair degree at least (5/9+o(1))n2/2(5/9+o(1))n^2/2 contains a tight Hamiltonian cycle. This degree condition is asymptotically optimal.
