Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the decomposition of complete bipartite multigraph Km,n(λ) into paths and cycles having k edges. In particular, we show that such decomposition exists in Km,n(λ), when λ ≡ 0 (mod 2), [...] and k(p + q) = 2mn for k ≡ 0 (mod 2) and also when λ ≥ 3, λm ≡ λn ≡ 0(mod 2), k(p + q) =λ_mn, m, n ≥ k, (resp., m, n ≥ 3k/2) for k ≡ 0(mod 4) (respectively, for k ≡ 2(mod 4)). In fact, the necessary conditions given above are also sufficient when λ = 2.

Decomposition of complete graphs into ( 0 , 2 ) -prisms

R. Frucht and J. Gallian (1988) proved that bipartite prisms of order 2 n have an α -labeling, thus they decompose the complete graph K 6 n x + 1 for any positive integer x . We use a technique called the ρ + -labeling introduced by S. I. El-Zanati, C. Vanden Eynden, and N. Punnim (2001) to show that also some other families of 3-regular bipartite graphs of order 2 n called generalized prisms decompose the complete graph K 6 n x + 1 for any positive integer x .
