Abstract

Necessary conditions for the complete graph on n vertices to have a decomposition into 5‐cubes are that 5 divides nβ€‰βˆ’β€‰1 and 80 divides n(nβ€‰βˆ’β€‰1)/2. These are known to be sufficient when n is odd. We prove them also sufficient for n even, thus completing the spectrum problem for the 5‐cube and lending further weight to a long‐standing conjecture of Kotzig. Β© 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

For a positive integer d, the usual d-dimensional cube Q d is defined to be the graph (K 2 ) d , the Cartesian product of d copies of K 2 . We define the generalized cube Q(K k , d) to be the graph (K k ) d for positive integers d and k. We investigate the decomposition of the complete multipartite

## Abstract A cube factorization of the complete graph on __n__ vertices, __K~n~__, is a 3‐factorization of __K~n~__ in which the components of each factor are cubes. We show that there exists a cube factorization of __K~n~__ if and only if __n__ ≑ 16 (mod 24), thus providing a new family of unifor

For a complete bipartite graph to be decomposable into isomorphic cubes, certain conditions on the number of cube and bipartition vertices must hold. We prove these necessary conditions sufficient in some cases. For cubes of fixed dimension d (indeed for d-regular bipartite graphs in general) we sho

## Abstract For all odd integers __n__ β‰₯ 1, let __G~n~__ denote the complete graph of order __n__, and for all even integers __n__ β‰₯ 2 let __G~n~__ denote the complete graph of order __n__ with the edges of a 1‐factor removed. It is shown that for all non‐negative integers __h__ and __t__ and all p
