Abstract

An optimal algorithm is developed which, given an arbitrary edge-decomposition of the complete multi-graph 2λKv into copies of K3, (a triple system), produces an arc-decomposition of the complete directed multigraph λK*v into copies of the transitive tournament of order three. This algorithm is based on the well-known linear time algorithm for finding Eulerian circuits in multigraphs.
