One-factorizations of complete graphs with a doubly transitive automorphism group

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

It is shown that a 1-factorization of K_n with a doubly transitive automorphism group on vertices is either the affine line-parallelism of AG(d, 2), or one of three ‘sporadic’ examples with n = 6, 12 or 28. The full automorphism groups are respectively AGL (d, 2) (the holomorph of an elementary abelian group of order 2^d), PGL(2, 5), PSL(2, 11) and ΡΓΤ(2, 8).
