Codegree conditions for tiling complete $k$-partite $k$-graphs and loose cycles

Given two $k$-graphs ($k$-uniform hypergraphs) $F$ and $H$, a perfect $F$-tiling (or an $F$-factor) in $H$ is a set of vertex disjoint copies of $F$ that together cover the vertex set of $H$. For all complete $k$-partite $k$-graphs $K$, Mycroft proved a minimum codegree condition that guarantees a $K$-factor in an $n$-vertex $k$-graph, which is tight up to an error term $o(n)$. In this paper we improve the error term in Mycroft’s result to a sub-linear term that relates to the Tur'an number of $K$ when the differences of the sizes of the vertex classes of $K$ are co-prime. Furthermore, we find a construction which shows that our improved codegree condition is asymptotically tight in infinitely many cases thus disproving a conjecture of Mycroft. At last, we determine exact minimum codegree conditions for tiling $K^{(k)}(1, \dots, 1, 2)$ and tiling loose cycles thus generalizing results of Czygrinow, DeBiasio, and Nagle, and of Czygrinow, respectively.
