The following problem has arisen in the study of graphs, lattices and finite topologies. Is there a 1-factorization of K 2m the complete graph on 2n points, such that the union of every pair of distinct 1-factors is a hamiltonian circuit? In this paper it is noted that on K 2m 1⪕ n⪕ 5, there is, up to relabelling, only one 1-factorization of the required type. On K 12 and whenever there are odd primes p, q> 3 such that p+ 1= 2q, there are at least two different such 1-factorizations. These results are obtained by computing symmetry groups. The symmetry groups obtained are Frobenius groups of maximal order (ie, sharply 2-transitive groups) and direct products of these groups with the group of order 2.
