Groupoids of homogeneous factorisations of graphs.

<p>This thesis is a study on the confluence of algebraic structures and graph theory. Its aim is to consider groupoids from factorisations of complete graphs. We are especially interested in the cases where the factors are isomorphic. We analyse the loops obtained from homogeneous factorisatio...
