A survey on the existence ofG‐Designs

Abstract: Abstract:A G-design of order n is a decomposition of the complete graph on n vertices into edge-disjoint subgraphs isomorphic to G. We survey the current state of knowledge on the existence problem for G-designs. This includes references to all the necessary designs and constructions, as well as a few new designs.

“…Indeed we settle the existence of G 20 -and G 21 -designs, leaving two possible exceptions (32 and 48) and one possible exception (48), respectively. These results are already included in the published reference [4] and the forthcoming survey [2], which base their reports on the results presented in this paper. …”

“…The set of all n for which K n admits a G-decomposition is called the spectrum of G. The spectrum has been determined for many classes of graphs, including all graphs on at most 4 vertices [3] and all graphs on 5 vertices (see [4] and [11]). We direct the reader to [2] and [5] for recent surveys on graph decompositions.…”
