It is well known that a triplewhist tournament TWh(v) exists only if v โก 0 or 1 (mod 4) and v = 5, 9. In this article, we introduce a new concept TWh-frame and use it to show that the necessary condition for the existence of a TWh(v) is also sufficient with a handful possible exceptions of v โ {12,
For 2 s p s n and n 2 3, D(n, p) denotes the digraph with n vertices obtained from a directed cycle of length n by changing the orientation of p -1 consecutives edges. In this paper, we prove that every tournament of order n 2 7 contains D(n, p ) for p = 2, 3, ..., n. Furthermore, we determine the t
We show that in any bipartite tournament with no transmitters and no 3-kings, the number of 4-kings is at least eight. All such bipartite tournaments having exactly eight 4-kings are completely characterized.
We show that in any n-partite tournament, where n/> 3, with no transmitters and no 3-kings, the number of 4-kings is at least eight. All n-partite tournaments, where n/>3, having eight 4-kings and no 3-kings are completely characterized. This solves the problem proposed in Koh and Tan (accepted).
