I'm very sorry that my original question was so poorly formulated that i
bothered some people in vain, I should have mentioned that I'm interested in
WEIGHTED matching (assignment) of higher degree than 2.

My problem is like this: I have n independent points in XY-rectangle and i want
to form groups (which each have k points) so that the total inner group 
distances are minimized (the graph is fully connected).
With k=2 this can be done by assignment algorithm, but i'm interested cases
where k>2, so if anyone knows articles etc. from this area please inform me.
And many thanks to those who already helped me !
