A cyclic Steiner triple system, presented additively over Z v as a set B of starter blocks, has a non-trivial multiplier automorphism λ ≠ 1 when λB is a set of starter blocks for the same Steiner triple system. When does a cyclic Steiner triple system of order v having a nontrivial multiplier automorphism exist? Constructions are developed for such systems; of most interest, a novel extension of Netto's classical construction for prime orders congruent to 1 (mod 6) to prime powers is proved. Nonexistence results are then established, particularly in the cases when v = (2β + 1)α, when v = 9p with p ≡ 5 (mod 6), and in certain cases when all prime divisors are congruent to 5 (mod 6). Finally, a complete solution is given for all v < 1000, in which the remaining cases are produced by simple computations. 相似文献

A hexagon triple is the graph consisting of the three triangles (triples) {a,b,c},{c,d,e}, and {e,f,a}, where a,b,c,d,e, and f are distinct. The triple {a,c,e} is called an inside triple. A hexagon triple system of order n is a pair (X,H) where H is a collection of edge disjoint hexagon triples which partitions the edge set of Kn with vertex set X. The inside triples form a partial Steiner triple system. We show that any Steiner triple system of order n can be embedded in the inside triples of a hexagon triple system of order approximately 3n. 相似文献

It is known that a Steiner triple system is projective if and only if it does not contain the four-triple configuration C14. We find three configurations such that a Steiner triple system is affine if and only if it does not contain any of these configurations. Similarly, we characterize Hall triple systems, a superclass of affine Steiner triple systems, using two forbidden configurations. 相似文献

We prove the following result. Let S be a Steiner triple system embedded in the projective plane of order n, such that r=n+1, and such that there exists a line l of exterior to S. Let G be a collineation group of fixing S, fixing l and transitive on the blocks of S. Then n=3 and S=l=AG(2, 3), and G contains the group of translations of S with respect to l.This research was supported by NSERC Grant A3485. 相似文献

A t-design (λ, t, d, n) is a system of sets of size d from an n-set S, such that each t subset of S is contained in exactly λ elements of . A t-design is indecomposable (written IND(λ, t, d, n)) if there does not exist a subset ? such that is a (λ, t, d, n) for some λ, 1 ? λ < λ. A triple system is a (λ; 2, 3, n). Recursive and constructive methods (several due to Hanani) are employed to show that: (1) an IND(2; 2, 3, n) exists for n ≡ 0, 1 (mod 3), n ? 4 and n ≡ 7 (designs of Bhattacharya are used here), (2) an IND(3; 2, 3, n) exists for n odd, n ? 5, (3) if an IND(λ, 2, 3, n) exists, n odd, then there exists an infinite number of indecomposable triple systems with that λ. 相似文献

Directed triple systems are an example of block designs on directed graphs. A block design on a directed graph can be defined as follows. Let G be a directed graph of k vertices which contain no loops. Let S be a set of υ elements. A collection of k-subsets of S with an assignment of the elements of each k-subset to the vertices of G is called a block design on G of order υ if the following is satisfied. Any ordered pair of elements of S is assigned λ times to an edge of G.For example, if S = {a, b, c, d, e} and and bae; cad; abc; dbe; acd; bce; adb; cde; aed; bec; is a collection of 3-subsets so written that in each subset the first element is assigned to the vertex 1, the second to 2, and the third to 3, then the collection is a block design on G with λ = 1.In this paper, it is shown that for the graph if λ = 1, then the graph exists for all υ such that ν ? 2 mod 3. 相似文献

Hanani triple systems onv≡1 (mod 6) elements are Steiner triple systems having (v−1)/2 pairwise disjoint almost parallel classes (sets of pairwise disjoint triples that spanv−1 elements), and the remaining triples form a partial parallel class. Hanani triple systems are one natural analogue of the
Kirkman triple systems onv≡3 (mod 6) elements, which form the solution of the celebrated Kirkman schoolgirl problem. We prove that a Hanani triple system
exists for allv≡1 (mod 6) except forv ∈ {7, 13}. 相似文献

It is proved in this article that the necessary and sufficient conditions for the embedding of a λ-fold pure Mendelsohn triple system of order v in λ-fold pure Mendelsohn triple of order u are λu(u ? 1) ≡ 0 (mod 3) and u ? 2v + 1. Similar results for the embeddings of pure directed triple systems are also obtained. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

In this self-contained exposition, results are developed concerning one-factorizations of complete graphs, and incidence matrices are used to turn these factorization results into embedding theorems on Steiner triple systems. The result is a constructive graphical proof that a Steiner triple system exists for any order congruent to 1 or 3 modulo 6. A pairing construction is then introduced to show that one can also obtain triple systems which are cyclically generated. 相似文献

A mitre in a Steiner triple system is a set of five triples on seven points, in which two are disjoint. Recursive constructions for Steiner triple systems containing no mitre are developed, leading to such anti-mitre systems for at least 9/16 of the admissible orders. Computational results for small cyclic Steiner triple systems are also included. 相似文献

A regular planar Steiner triple system is a Steiner triple system provided with a family of non-trivial sub-systems of the same cardinality (called planes) such that (i) every set of 3 non collinear points is contained in exactly one plane and (ii) for every plane H and every disjoint block B, there are exactly planes containing B and intersecting H in a block. We prove that a regular planar Steiner triple system is necessarily a projective space of dimension greater than 2 over GF(2), the 3-dimensional affine space over GF(3), an S(2, 3, 2 (6m+7) (3m2+3m+1)+1) with m1, an S(2, 3, 171), an S(2, 3, 183) or an S(2, 3, 2055). 相似文献

Let {n;b2,b1} denote the class of extended directed triple systems of the order n in which the number of blocks of the form [a,b,a] is b2 and the number of blocks of the form [b,a,a] or [a,a,b] is b1. In this paper, we have shown that the necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of the class {n;b2,b1} is b1≠1, 0?b2+b1?n and
