Abstract: We show that for each kgeq4 and n>rgeqk+1, every n-vertex r-uniform hypergraph with no Berge cycle of length at least k has at most frac(k1)(n1)r edges. The bound is exact, and we describe the extremal hypergraphs. This implies and slightly refines the theorem of GyH{o}ri, Katona and Lemons that for n>rgeqkgeq3, every n-vertex r-uniform hypergraph with no Berge path of length k has at most frac(k1)nr+1 edges. To obtain the bounds, we study bipartite graphs with no cycles of length at least 2k, and then translate the results into the language of multi-hypergraphs.
