Abstract
We investigate generalisations of 1-factorisations and hyperfactorisations of the complete graph $K_{2n}$. We show that they are special subsets of the association scheme obtained from the Gelfand pair $(S_{2n},S_2 \wr S_n)$. This unifies and extends results by Cameron (1976) and gives rise to new existence and non-existence results. Our methods involve working in the group algebra $\mathbb{C}[S_{2n}]$ and using the representation theory of $S_{2n}$.
