β¦ Synopsis
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 classes, each class consisting of disjoint paths, to be extendible to a Hamiltonian decomposition of the complete s-partite graph K,~ ..... so that each of the classes forms part of a Hamiltonian cycle.

## Abstract For __k__β=β1 and __k__β=β2, we prove that the obvious necessary numerical conditions for packing __t__ pairwise edgeβdisjoint __k__βregular subgraphs of specified orders __m__~1~,__m__~2~,β¦ ,__m__~t~ in the complete graph of order __n__ are also sufficient. To do so, we present an edge
If rjn Γ 1 and rn is even, then K n can be expressed as the union of t nΓ1 r edgedisjoint isomorphic r-regular r-connected factors.
The proof of the following theorem is given: A complete graph with n vertkes can he decomposed into r regular bichromatic factors if and only if n is even and greater thl;iirl 4 and there exists $1 natural number k with the properties that k < r anu. ak-l < n 5 Zk.

In this paper we discuss isomorphic decompositions of regular bipartite graphs into trees and forests. We prove that: (1) there is a wide class of r-regular bipartite graphs that are decomposable into any tree of size r, (2) every r-regular bipartite graph decomposes into any double star of size r,
