1 Introduction An m-cycle system of a graph G is a set of m-cycles in G whose edges partition the edge set of G. Let K n;k denote the complete bipartite graph with partite sets of sizes n and k. The existence problem for m-cycle systems of K n;k were completely settled in [7](1981). Theorem 1.1([7]) There exists an m-cycle system of K n;kif and only if m; n and k are even,n; k m/2 and m divides nk. An m-cycle system of a graph G with vertex Zvis cyclic if for each B = (b1; b2; …; bm) we have B +j , where for each j Zv the sum B + j is defined as B + j = (b1+ j; b2+ j; …; b m+ j). In the sequel, any graph of order v will be considered as a graph with vertex set Zv.
The existence problem for cyclic m-cycle systems of complete graph has attracted much in-terest. For m even and v 1 (mod 2m), cyclic m-cycle systems of Kvwere constructed for m 0 (mod 4) in [5] and for m 2 (mod 4) in [6]. For m odd and v 1 (mod 2m), cyclic m-cycle systems of Kvwere found using different methods in [3,1,4]. For v m (mod 2m), cyclic m-cycle systems of Kvwere given in [2] for m M, where M = peI p is prime, e > 1 in [10] for m M. For the existence of cyclic m-cycle systems of complete bipartite graph K n;n necessary and suffcient conditions were given in [8] for the case m 0(mod4)
and m/ 4 square-free and the case m 2 (mod 4) with m > = 6 and m square-free. In [8,9], necessary and suffcient conditions are determined for the existence of cyclic m-cycle systems of K n;nfor all integers m 30. In this paper, we will determine necessary and suffcient conditions for the existence of cyclic m-cycle systems of K n;nfor all integers 30 < m 100. As a consequence,necessary and suffcient conditions are determined for the existence of cyclic m-cycle systems of K n;nfor all integers m 100. ,
2 Preliminaries The main technique used in this paper is the difference method. Definition2.1 The type of a cycle B is the cardinality of the set { j∈Zv lB=B+j }. If B = (b1; b2; …;bm) is a m-cycle of type d, let denote the multiset where b0 = bm. Definition 2.2 Let be a set of m-cycles and di be the type of Bi for If each element in Zv\ 0 appears exactly once in the multiset , then is called a (Kv;Cm)-
-difference system((Kv;Cm)-DS for short). If there exists a cyclic m-cycle systems of K n;n, then the two partite sets of K n;nbe Definition 2.3 Let be a set of m-cycles and di be the type of Bi for If each element in appears exactly once in the multiset then is called a (K n;n;Cm)-DS.
