Abstract:Abstract. Let Σ = (X, B) be a 6-cycle system of order v, so v ≡ 1, 9 mod 12. A c-colouring of type s is a map φ : B → C, with C set of colours, such that exactly c colours are used and for every vertex x all the blocks containing x are coloured exactly with s colours. Let= qs + r, with q, r ≥ 0. φ is equitable if for every vertex x the set of the v−1 2 blocks containing x is partitioned in r colour classes of cardinality q + 1 and s − r colour classes of cardinality q. In this paper we study bicolourings and t… Show more
In this article, we attempt to survey all that has been written about 6-cycle systems. In addition, several new results, including many enumeration results, are included here for the first time. Our survey concludes with a list of open problems.
