Abstract

In this paper necessary and sufficient conditions are found for an edge‐colored graph H to be the homomorphic image of a 2‐factorization of a complete multipartite graph G in which each 2‐factor of G has the same number of components as its corresponding color class in H. This result is used to completely solve the problem of finding hamilton decompositions of K~a,b~ − E(U) for any 2‐factor U of K~a,b~. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, 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 It is known that a necessary condition for the existence of a 1‐rotational 2‐factorization of the complete graph __K__~2__n__+1~ under the action of a group __G__ of order 2__n__ is that the involutions of __G__ are pairwise conjugate. Is this condition also sufficient? The complete ans

## Abstract We consider 2‐factorizations of complete graphs that possess an automorphism group fixing __k__⩾0 vertices and acting sharply transitively on the others. We study the structures of such factorizations and consider the cases in which the group is either abelian or dihedral in some more d
