Abstract

AbstractA tournament is a digraph which has exactly one arc between any two vertices. Let and be two positive integers with . A ‐cycle is a cycle of length . We prove that for any real number , there exists a constant such that for every , any tournament with minimum outdegree at least contains disjoint ‐cycles. This generalizes a result by Bang‐Jensen, Bessy, and Thomassé for disjoint 3‐cycles. The linear factor of minimum outdegree is the best possible.
