Abstract: Let mathcalF be a family of 3-uniform linear hypergraphs. The linear Tur'an number of mathcalF is the maximum possible number of edges in a 3-uniform linear hypergraph on n vertices which contains no member of mathcalF as a subhypergraph. In this paper we show that the linear Tur'an number of the five cycle C5 (in the Berge sense) is frac13sqrt3n3/2 asymptotically. We also show that the linear Tur'an number of the four cycle C4 and C3,C4 are equal asmptotically, which is a strengthening of a theorem of Lazebnik and Verstra"ete. We establish a connection between the linear Tur'an number of the linear cycle of length 2k+1 and the extremal number of edges in a graph of girth more than 2k2. Combining our result and a theorem of Collier-Cartaino, Graber and Jiang, we obtain that the linear Tur'an number of the linear cycle of length 2k+1 is Theta(n1+frac1k) for k=2,3,4,6.
