Abstract

In this paper we introduce a particular class of Heffter arrays, called globally simple Heffter arrays, whose existence gives at once orthogonal cyclic cycle decompositions of the complete graph and of the cocktail party graph. In particular we provide explicit constructions of such decompositions for cycles of length k ≤ 10. Furthermore, starting from our Heffter arrays we also obtain biembeddings of two k-cycle decompositions on orientable surfaces.
