Abstract

A prism is the Cartesian product Cm{square subset}P2. In other words, it is a graph consisting of two cycles of the same length whose corresponding vertices are joined by additional edges forming a matching. The problem of decomposition of complete graphs into prisms with 12 or 16 vertices was completely solved in [12]. In this paper we completely characterize the complete graphs that are decomposable into 3-regular bipartite graphs of order 12 or 16 that are a simple modification of prisms.
