Abstract

Fronček and Kovářová provided in [2] and [3]spanning trees of order 2n that factorize K 2n for every n ≥ 2 and for every feasible diameter d, 3 ≤ d ≤ 2n − 1. We extend their work and give a spanning tree on 2n vertices with a maximum degree \({\it \Delta}\) that factorize K 2n for every n ≥ 2 and for every feasible \(2\leq {\it \Delta} \leq n\). We give a construction for both symmetric and non-symmetric spanning trees.
