A subgraph of an edge-coloured complete graph is called rainbow if all itsedges have different colours. The study of rainbow decompositions has a longhistory, going back to the work of Euler on Latin squares. In this paper wediscuss three problems about decomposing complete graphs into rainbow trees:the Brualdi-Hollingsworth Conjecture, Constantine's Conjecture, and theKaneko-Kano-Suzuki Conjecture. We show that in every proper edge-colouring of$K_n$ there are $10^{-6}n$ edge-disjoint spanning isomorphic rainbow trees.This simultaneously improves the best known bounds on all these conjectures.Using our method we also show that every properly $(n-1)$-edge-coloured $K_n$has $n/9$ edge-disjoint rainbow trees, giving further improvement on theBrualdi-Hollingsworth Conjecture.
