      Summary: Let \(H_{n,p,r}^{(k)}\) denote a \textit{randomly colored random hypergraph}, constructed on the vertex set \([n]\) by taking each \(k\)-tuple independently with probability \(p\), and then independently coloring it with a random color from the set \([r]\). Let \(H\) be a \(k\)-uniform hypergraph of order \(n\). An \textit{\(\ell\)-Hamilton cycle} is a spanning subhypergraph \(C\) of \(H\) with \(n/(k-\ell)\) edges and such that for some cyclic ordering of the vertices each edge of \(C\) consists of \(k\) consecutive vertices and every pair of adjacent edges in \(C\) intersects in precisely \(\ell\) vertices. In this note we study the existence of \textit{rainbow} \(\ell\)-Hamilton cycles (that is every edge receives a different color) in \(H_{n,p,r}^{(k)}\). We mainly focus on the most restrictive case when \(r = n/(k-\ell)\). In particular, we show that for the so called tight Hamilton cycles (\(\ell=k-1\)) \(p = e^2/n\) is the sharp threshold for the existence of a rainbow tight Hamilton cycle in \(H_{n,p,n}^{(k)}\) for each \(k\geq 4\).
