Spanning subhypergraphs with degree constraints

An old result of Tutte states that any $d$-regular graph contains a spanning subgraph in which every vertex has degree $k$ or $k+1$, for every $1\leq k\leq d$. We generalize this statement to hypergraphs, showing, for example, that every $3$-uniform $d$-regular hypergraph contains a subgraph in which all degrees are $k...
