The Cyclically Resolvable Steiner Triple Systems of Order 57
A resolution of a Steiner triple system of order <i>v</i> (STS(<i>v</i>)) is point-cyclic if it has an automorphism permuting the points in one cycle. An STS(<i>v</i>) is cyclically resolvable if it has at least one point-cyclic resolution. Cyclically resolvable S...

description | A resolution of a Steiner triple system of order <i>v</i> (STS(<i>v</i>)) is point-cyclic if it has an automorphism permuting the points in one cycle. An STS(<i>v</i>) is cyclically resolvable if it has at least one point-cyclic resolution. Cyclically resolvable STS(<i>v</i>)s have important applications in Coding Theory. They have been classified up to <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>v</mi><mo>=</mo><mn>45</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> and before the present work <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>v</mi><mo>=</mo><mn>57</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> was the first open case. There are 2,353,310 cyclic STS(57)s. We establish that 155,966 of them are cyclically resolvable yielding 3,638,984 point-cyclic resolutions which we classify with respect to their automorphism groups and to the availability of some configurations. |
