We establish the structure which complete graphs yield in a minimal PSTS that contains them. As a by-product we introduce the notion of a binomial PSTS as a configuration with parameters of a minimal PSTS with a complete subgraph. A representation of binomial PSTS with at least a given number of its maximal complete subgraphs is given in terms of systems of perspectives. Finally, we prove that for each admissible integer there is a binomial PSTS with this number of maximal complete subgraphs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-04-15T20:11:18.000Z", "title": "Binomial configurations which contain complete graphs: $K_n$-subgraphs of a $\\left(\\binom{n+1}{2}_{n-1} \\binom{n+1}{3}_3\\right)$-configuration", "abstract": "We propose to base a classification of partial Steiner triple systems on determining complete graphs contained (freely) in them.
