In this paper we study the relation between long cycles and Bose-Einstein condensation in the Infinite-Range Bose-Hubbard Model. We obtain an expression for the cycle density involving the partition function for a Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian with a single-site correction. Inspired by the Approximating Hamiltonian method we conjecture a simplified expression for the short cycle density as a ratio of single-site partition functions. In the absence of condensation we prove that this simplification is exact and use it to show that in this case the long-cycle density vanishes. In the presence of condensation we can justify this simplification when a gauge-symmetry breaking term is introduced in the Hamiltonian. Assuming our conjecture is correct, we compare numerically the long-cycle density with the condensate and find that though they coexist, in general they are not equal.
