An l-cycle decomposition of K_v is said to be equitably 2-colourable if there is a 2-vertex-colouring of K_v such that each colour is represented (approximately) an equal number of times on each cycle: more precisely, we ask that in each cycle C of the decomposition, each colour appears on (l-1)/2 (floor) or (l-1)/2 (ceiling) of the vertices of C. In this paper we study the existence of equitably 2-colourable l -cycle decompositions of K_v, where l is odd, and prove the existence of such a decomposition for v=1,l (mod (2l)).

Abstract

An l-cycle decomposition of K_v is said to be equitably 2-colourable if there is a 2-vertex-colouring of K_v such that each colour is represented (approximately) an equal number of times on each cycle: more precisely, we ask that in each cycle C of the decomposition, each colour appears on (l-1)/2 (floor) or (l-1)/2 (ceiling) of the vertices of C. In this paper we study the existence of equitably 2-colourable l -cycle decompositions of K_v, where l is odd, and prove the existence of such a decomposition for v=1,l (mod (2l)).
