We give a characterization of a current assignment on the bipartite Möbius ladder graph with 2n+1 rungs. Such an assignment yields an index one current graph with current group Z12n+7 that generates an orientable face 2-colorable triangular embedding of the complete graph K12n+7 or, equivalently, an orientable biembedding of two cyclic Steiner triple systems of order 12n+7. We use our characterization to construct Skolem sequences that give rise to such current assignments. These produce many nonisomorphic orientable biembeddings of cyclic Steiner triple systems of order 12n+7. 相似文献

Phelps and Rosa introduced the concept of 1‐rotational Steiner triple system, that is an STS(ν) admitting an automorphism consisting of a fixed point and a single cycle of length ν ? 1 [Discrete Math. 33 ( 12 ), 57–66]. They proved that such an STS(ν) exists if and only if ν ≡ 3 or 9 (mod 24). Here, we speak of a 1‐rotational STS(ν) in a more general sense. An STS(ν) is 1‐rotational over a group G when it admits G as an automorphism group, fixing one point and acting regularly on the other points. Thus the STS(ν)'s by Phelps and Rosa are 1‐rotational over the cyclic group. We denote by ??1r, ??1r, ??1r, ??1r, the spectrum of values of ν for which there exists a 1‐rotational STS(ν) over an abelian, a cyclic, a dicyclic, and an arbitrary group, respectively. In this paper, we determine ??1r and find partial answers about ??1r and ??1r. The smallest 1‐rotational STSs have orders 9, 19, 25 and are unique up to isomorphism. In particular, the only 1‐rotational STS(25) is over SL2(3), the special linear group of dimension 2 over Z3. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Combin Designs 9: 215–226, 2001 相似文献

A partial Steiner triple system of order is sequenceable if there is a sequence of length of its distinct points such that no proper segment of the sequence is a union of point‐disjoint blocks. We prove that if a partial Steiner triple system has at most three point‐disjoint blocks, then it is sequenceable. 相似文献

This paper concerns a class of combinatorial objects called Skolem starters, and more specifically, strong Skolem starters, which are generated by Skolem sequences. In 1991, Shalaby conjectured that any additive group , where or , admits a strong Skolem starter and constructed these starters of all admissible orders . Only finitely many strong Skolem starters have been known to date. In this paper, we offer a geometrical interpretation of strong Skolem starters and explicitly construct infinite families of them. 相似文献

It is shown that for m = 2d ? 1, 2d, 2d + 1, and d ≥ 1, the set {1, 2,…, 2m + 2}, ? {2,k} can be partitioned into differences d,d + 1,…,d + m ? 1 whenever (m,k) ≡ (0,0), (1,d + 1), (2, 1), (3,d) (mod (4,2)) and (d,m,k) ≠ (1,1,3), (2,3,7) (where (x,y) ≡ (u,ν) mod (m,n) iff x ≡ u (mod m) and y ≡ ν (mod n)). It is also shown that if m ≥ 2d ? 1 and m ? [2d + 2, 8d ? 5], then the set {1, 2, …, 2m + 1} ? {k} can be partitioned into differences d,d + 1,…,d + m ? 1 whenever (m,k) ≡ (0, 1), (1,d), (2,0), (3,d + 1) mod (4,2). Finally, for d = 4 we obtain a complete result for when {1,…,2m + 1} ? {k} can be partitioned into differences 4,5,…,m + 3. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

A tight Heffter array is an matrix with nonzero entries from such that (i) the sum of the elements in each row and each column is 0, and (ii) no element from appears twice. We prove that exist if and only if both m and n are at least 3. If H has the property that all entries are integers of magnitude at most , every row and column sum is 0 over the integers, and H also satisfies ), we call H an integer Heffter array. We show integer Heffter arrays exist if and only if . Finally, an integer Heffter array is shiftable if each row and column contains the same number of positive and negative integers. We show that shiftable integer arrays exists exactly when both are even. 相似文献

In a Steiner triple system STS(v) = (V, B), for each pair {a, b} ⊂ V, the cycle graph Ga,b can be defined as follows. The vertices of Ga,b are V \ {a, b, c} where {a, b, c} ∈ B. {x, y} is an edge if either {a, x, y} or {b, x, y} ∈ B. The Steiner triple system is said to be perfect if the cycle graph of every pair is a single (v − 3)-cycle. Perfect STS(v) are known only for v = 7, 9, 25, and 33. We construct perfect STS (v) for v = 79, 139, 367, 811, 1531, 25771, 50923, 61339, and 69991. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Combin Designs 7: 327–330, 1999 相似文献

A Steiner quadruple system of order 2n is Semi‐Boolean (SBQS(2n) in short) if all its derived triple systems are isomorphic to the point‐line design associated with the projective geometry PG(n?1, 2). We prove by means of explicit constructions that for any n, up to isomorphism, there exist at least 2? 3(n?4)/2? regular and resolvable SBQS(2n). © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A well‐known, and unresolved, conjecture states that every partial Steiner triple system of order u can be embedded in a Steiner triple system of order υ for all υ ≡ 1 or 3, (mod 6), υ ≥ 2u + 1. However, some partial Steiner triple systems of order u can be embedded in Steiner triple systems of order υ <2u + 1. A more general conjecture that considers these small embeddings is presented and verified for some cases. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An S(2, 4, v) design has a type B χ‐coloring if it is possible to assign one of χ colors to each point such that each block contains three points of one color and one point of a different color, and all χ colors are used. In this article we describe the constructions of type B χ‐colorable S(2, 4, v)s for (v, χ) = (61, 3), (100, 2) and (109, 3), and we give a new general construction. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

It is shown that there exists a triangle decomposition of the graph obtained from the complete graph of order v by removing the edges of two vertex disjoint complete subgraphs of orders u and w if and only if u,w, and v are odd, (mod 3), and . Such decompositions are equivalent to group divisible designs with block size 3, one group of size u, one group of size w, and v – u – w groups of size 1. This result settles the existence problem for Steiner triple systems having two disjoint specified subsystems, thereby generalizing the well‐known theorem of Doyen and Wilson on the existence of Steiner triple systems with a single specified subsystem. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

It is shown that for , there exists an optimal packing with triples on points that contains no Pasch configurations. Furthermore, for all (mod 6), there exists a pairwise balanced design of order , whose blocks are all triples apart from a single quintuple, and that has no Pasch configurations amongst its triples. 相似文献

We will present a counter example to the conjecture that the class of boolean SQS-skeins is defined by the equation q(x, u, q(y, u, z)) = q(q(x, u, y), u, z ). The SQS-skeins satisfying this equation will be seen to be exactly those SQS-skeins that correspond to Steiner quadruple systems whose derived Steiner triple systems are all projective geometries. 相似文献

It is well known that when or , there exists a Steiner triple system (STS) of order n decomposable into triangles (three pairwise intersecting triples whose intersection is empty). A triangle in an STS determines naturally two more triples: the triple of “vertices” , and the triple of “midpoints” . The number of these triples in both cases, that of “vertex” triples (inner) or that of “midpoint triples” (outer), equals one‐third of the number of triples in the STS. In this paper, we consider a new problem of trinal decompositions of an STS into triangles. In this problem, one asks for three distinct decompositions of an STS of order n into triangles such that the union of the three collections of inner triples (outer triples, respectively) from the three decompositions form the set of triples of an STS of the same order. These decompositions are called trinal inner and trinal outer decompositions, respectively. We settle the existence question for trinal inner decompositions completely, and for trinal outer decompositions with two possible exceptions. 相似文献
