چکیده
Given a family F of multigraphs without isolated vertices, a multigraph M is called F-decomposable if M is an edge disjoint union of multigraphs each of which is isomorphic to a member of F . We present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such decompositions if F comprises two multigraphs from the set consisting of a 2-cycle, a 2-matching and a path with two edges.

Decompositions of multigraphs into parts with the same size
Given a family F of multigraphs without isolated vertices, a multigraph M is called F-decomposable if M is an edge disjoint union of multigraphs each of which is isomorphic to a member of F . We present necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of such decompositions if F consists of all multigraphs of size q except for one. Namely, for a multigraph H of size q we find each multigraph M...
متن کاملDecompositions Of λKv Into Multigraphs With Four Vertices And Five Edges
This paper is motivated by a survey on the existence of G-designs by Adams, Bryant and Buchanan, where they gave the spectrum of the decomposition of complete graphs into graphs with small numbers of vertices. We give difference family-type constructions to decompose λ copies, where λ ≥ 2, of the complete graph K v into several multigraphs on four vertices and five edges including so called " 2...
متن کاملExpressing graphs in terms of complete bipartite graphs
1 Edge-disjoint decompositions Some of the graphs in this section are allowed to have multiple edges. They will be referred to as multigraphs. All graphs are assumed to have vertex set [n] = {1, 2, . . . , n}. Multiple edges between vertices of a multigraph G are regarded as distinct members of its edge set, E(G). We say that a collection of multigraphs1 Gi, i ∈ [m] is an edge-disjoint decompos...
متن کاملDecompositions of Complete Multigraphs Related to Hadamard Matrices
Let bp(+Kv) be the minimum number of complete bipartite subgraphs needed to partition the edge set of +Kv , the complete multigraph with + edges between each pair of its v vertices. Many papers have examined bp(+Kv) for v 2+. For each + and v with v 2+, it is shown here that if certain Hadamard and conference matrices exist, then bp(+Kv) must be one of two numbers. Also, generalizations to deco...
متن کاملThe complete multigraphs and their decompositions into open trails
Balister [Combin. Probab. Comput. 12 (2003), 1–15] gave a necessary and sufficient condition for a complete multigraph Kn to be arbitrarily decomposable into closed trails of prescribed lengths. In this article we solve the corresponding problem showing that the multigraphs Kn are arbitrarily decomposable into open trails.
