Abstract: For every fixed k 3 there exists a constant c k with the following property. Let H be a k- uniform, D-regular hypergraph on N vertices, in which no two edges contain more than one common vertex. If k ? 3 then H contains a matching covering all vertices but at most c k ND \Gamma1=(k\Gamma1) : If k = 3, then H contains a matching covering all vertices but at most c 3 ND \Gamma1=2 ln 3=2 D. This improves previous estimates and implies, for example, that any Steiner Triple System on N... (Update)
