β¦ Synopsis
A transitive triple, (a,b,c), is defined to be the set )} of ordered pairs. A directed triple system of order v, DTS(v), is a pair (D, p), where D is a set of v points and fi is a collection of transitive triples of pairwise distinct points of D such that any ordered pair of distinct points of D is contained in precisely one transitive triple of /3. An antiautomorphism of a Directed triple system, ( D , / 3 ) , is a permutation of D that maps / 3 to /3-', where
~-' = { ( c . b , a ) ~( a , b , c ) β¬ f i } .
In this article we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a Directed triple system of order v admitting an antiautomorphism consisting of a single cycle of length d and having vd fixed points. Further, we give a more general result for partial Directed triple systems in which the missing ordered pairs are precisely those containing two fixed points.

## Abstract A cyclic face 2βcolourable triangulation of the complete graph __K__~__n__~ in an orientable surface exists for __n__ββ‘β7 (mod 12). Such a triangulation corresponds to a cyclic biβembedding of a pair of Steiner triple systems of order __n__, the triples being defined by the faces in eac
In this note, we present a direct product construction for 5-sparse triple systems.
Let RB(3, \*; v) denote a resolvable \*-fold triple system of order v. It is proved in this paper that the necessary and sufficient conditions for the embedding of an RB(3, \*; v) in an RB(3, \*; u) are u 3v and (i) u#v#3 (mod 6) if \*#1 (mod 2), (ii) u#v#3 (mod 3) if \*#0 (mod 4), or (iii) u#v#0 (m
