Generalized whist tournament designs
In this study a new class of tournament designs is introduced. In particular, each game of the tournament involves several (two or more) teams competing against one another. The tournament is also required to satisfy certain balance conditions that are imposed on each pair of players. These balance conditions are related to both the total number of players on each team and the number of teams i...
متن کاملThe Existence of Near Generalized Balanced Tournament Designs
In this paper, we complete the existence of near generalized balanced tournament designs (NGBTDs) with block size 3 and 5. As an application, we obtain new classes of optimal constant composition codes.
متن کاملGeneralized Balanced Tournament Designs with Block Size Four
In this paper, we remove the outstanding values m for which the existence of a GBTD(4,m) has not been decided previously. This leads to a complete solution to the existence problem regarding GBTD(4,m)s.
متن کاملSplittable Triplewhist Tournament Designs
We show that Z-cyclic splittable triplewhist tournament designs exist for all primes of the form p = 8t + 1, t odd, except possibly p = 41.
متن کاملImbalance in tournament designs
We introduce two measures of imbalance, the team imbalance, and the field imbalance, in a tournament design. In addition to an exhaustive study of imbalances in tournament designs with up to eight teams, we present some bounds on the imbalances, as well as recursive constructions for homogeneous tournaments.
