Abstract

All graphs meeting the basic necessary conditions to be the leave graph of a maximal partial triple system with at most thirteen elements are generated. A hill-climbing algorithm is developed to determine which of these candidates are in fact leave graphs. Improved necessary conditions for a graph to be a leave graph are developed.
