Triple systems (05B07)

Review text

The authors completely settle the existence of Rosa triple systems. Such a design is a triple system of order \(v\equiv 2\pmod 3\) whose chromatic index is minimum and which has the largest possible number of maximum parallel classes in such a block colouring. The proven results on Rosa triple systems allow the authors to settle completely also the existence of triple systems with minimum chromatic index. This requires the use of known results on Kirkman, Hanani and almost resolvable twofold triple systems. All proofs are by construction with the small cases suitably dealt with and used as starting designs for the general cases. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0871.00034].
