Isomorphic factorization of the complete graph into Cayley digraphs

Let Z_p denote the cyclic group of order p where p is a prime number. Let X = X(Z_p, H) denote the Cayley digraph of Z_p with respect to the symbol H. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition on H so that the complete graph on p vertices can be edge‐partitioned into three copies of Cayley digraphs of the same group Z_p each isomorphic to X. Based on this condition on H, we then enumerate all such Cayley graphs and digraphs. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 52: 243–256, 2006
