Petersen Graph Decompositions of Complete Multipartite Graphs

Let P be the Petersen graph, and K _u(h) the complete multipartite graph with u parts of size h. A decomposition of K _u(h) into edge-disjoint copies of the Petersen graph P is called a P-decomposition of K _u(h) or a P-group divisible design of type h ^u . In this paper, we show that there exists a P-decomposition of K _u(h) if and only if h²u(u-1) o 0 mod 30{h^2u(u-1)\equiv 0 \pmod {30}} , h(u-1) o 0 mod 3{h(u-1)\equiv 0\pmod 3} , and u ≥ 3 with a definite exception (h, u) = (1, 10).
