Although this appears to be a basic instance of the hypergraph Turán problem (with a $t$-edge matching as the excluded hypergraph), progress on this question has remained elusive. In this paper, we verify this conjecture for all $t<\frac{n}{3k^{2}}$. This improves upon the best previously known range $t=O(\frac{n}{k^{3}})$, which dates back to the 1970s. rv:
