Decompositions of quasirandom hypergraphs into hypergraphs of bounded degree

Abstract

We prove that any quasirandom uniform hypergraph H H can be approximately decomposed into any collection of bounded degree hypergraphs with almost as many edges. In fact, our results also apply to multipartite hypergraphs and even to the sparse setting when the density of  H H quickly tends to 0 0 in terms of the number of vertices of H H . Our results answer and address questions of Kim, Kühn, Osthus and Tyomkyn; and Glock, Kühn and Osthus as well as Keevash.

The provided approximate decompositions exhibit strong quasirandom properties which are very useful for forthcoming applications. Our results also imply approximate solutions to natural hypergraph versions of long-standing graph decomposition problems, as well as several decomposition results for (quasi)random simplicial complexes into various more elementary simplicial complexes such as triangulations of spheres and other manifolds.
