摘要
Using a generalisation of Hamiltonian cycles to uniform hypergraphs due to Katona and Kierstead, we define a new notion of a Hamiltonian decomposition of a uniform hypergraph. We then consider the problem of constructing such decompositions for complete uniform hypergraphs, and describe its relationship with other topics, such as design theory. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
