Abstract

AbstractA well‐known, and unresolved, conjecture states that every partial Steiner triple system of order u can be embedded in a Steiner triple system of order υ for all υ ≡ 1 or 3, (mod 6), υ ≥ 2u + 1. However, some partial Steiner triple systems of order u can be embedded in Steiner triple systems of order υ <2u + 1. A more general conjecture that considers these small embeddings is presented and verified for some cases. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
