## Abstract Graham and Pollak [3] proved that __n__ β1 is the minimum number of edgeβdisjoint complete bipartite subgraphs into which the edges of __K__~__n__~ can be decomposed. Using a linear algebraic technique, Tverberg [2] gives a different proof of that result. We apply his technique to show

If G is a graph on n vertices and r 2 2, w e let m,(G) denote the minimum number of complete multipartite subgraphs, with r or fewer parts, needed to partition the edge set, f(G). In determining m,(G), w e may assume that no two vertices of G have the same neighbor set. For such reduced graphs G, w
In this paper we give a procedure by which Hamiltonian decompositions of the s-partite graph K~.....,~, where (s-1)n is even, can be constructed. For 2t<~s, l<~al<~...<~a~n, we find conditions which are necessary and sufficient for a decomposition of the edge-set of Kal.a2..... ~ into (s-1)n/2 class
