The prisms over 3-connected cubic graphs are Hamiltonian. In 1986 Brian Alspach and Moshe Rosenfeld conjectured that these prisms are Hamiltonian decomposable. In this paper we present a short survey of the status of this conjecture, various constructions proving that certain families of prisms over 3-connected cubic graphs are Hamiltonian decomposable. Among others, we prove that the prisms over cubic Halin graphs, cubic generalized Halin graphs of order 4k + 2 and other infinite sequences of cubic graphs are Hamiltonian decomposable.

We also investigate the number of distinct antidirected Hamiltonian paths and circuits in T, and obtain upper bounds for these numbers. DEFINITIONS AND NOTATION. The transitive tournament TT, is a tournament with vertices {al ,..., a,] and ai + aj iff i <,j. The vertices ai , 1 < i < 17, are called internal vertices. The tournaments Tzc and T," are the unique regular tournaments with three and five vertices, respectively. TTc is a tournament that can be defined as follows: its vertices are the elements (0, I,..., 6) of the finite field GF(7), and i-j iff .i-i is a quadratic element in GF(7).

We prove that an equipartite polytope in ℝ d can have at most 2d+2 vertices. We show that this bound is sharp and identify all known equipartite polytopes in ℝ d . We conjecture that the list is complete.

Hamiltonian properties of these graphs have been investigated by several authors. In this paper, we prove that Σ(n) contains n/8 pairwise edge-disjoint Hamilton cycles when n is prime, and Ω(n/ log log n) such cycles for arbitrary n.

Then the controllability of A,B\{ {A,B} \}A,B implies the possibility of assigning an arbitrary finite set of poles to the transfer function of the closed loop system formed by means of suitable linear state feedback. Thus such systems can always be stabilized through state feedback.
