β¦ Synopsis
Let m β₯ 3 be an odd integer and let k, n, and s β₯ 3 be positive integers. We present sufficient conditions for the existence of Cs-factorizations of (C m k ) n . We show these conditions to be necessary when m is prime.

Three obvious necessary conditions for the existence of a k-cycle system of order n are that if n > 1 then n 1 k, n is odd, and 2 k divides n(n -1). We show that if these necessary conditions are sufficient for all n satisfying k I n < 3k then they are sufficient for all n. In particular, there exis
Motivated by the work of NeΕ‘etΕil and R ΓΆdl on "Partitions of vertices" we are interested in obtaining some quantitative extensions of their result. In particular, given a natural number r and a graph G of order m with odd girth g, we show the existence of a graph H with odd girth at least g and ord
## Abstract Let __r__~__k__~(__G__) be the __k__βcolor Ramsey number of a graph __G__. It is shown that $r\_{k}(C\_{5})\le \sqrt{18^{k}\,k!}$ for __k__β©Ύ2 and that __r__~__k__~(__C__~2__m__+ 1~)β©½(__c__^__k__^__k__!)^1/__m__^ if the Ramsey graphs of __r__~__k__~(__C__~2__m__+ 1~) are not far away fr
## Abstract We give an explicit solution to the existence problem for 1βrotational __k__βcycle systems of order __v__ < 3__k__ with __k__ odd and __v__ββ β2__k__β+β1. We also exhibit a 2βrotational __k__βcycle system of order 2__k__β+β1 for any odd __k__. Thus, for __k__ odd and any admissible __v__
We provide a bijection between the set of factorizations, that is, ordered (n -1)tuples of transpositions in S n whose product is (12...n), and labelled trees on n vertices. We prove a refinement of a theorem of J. DΓ©nes (1959, Publ. Math. Inst. Hungar. Acad. Sci. 4, 63-71) that establishes new tree
