چکیده

In this article we study proper quasi-symmetric 2 − designs i.e. block designs having two intersection numbers and , where 0 < < . Also, we present a construction method for quasi-symmetric 2 − designs with block intersection numbers and + 1, where is a prime number, under certain conditions on the cardinality of point set.

New quasi-symmetric designs by the Kramer-Mesner method

A t-(v, k, λ) design is quasi-symmetric if there are only two block intersection sizes. We adapt the Kramer-Mesner construction method for designs with prescribed automorphism groups to the quasi-symmetric case. Using the adapted method, we find many new quasi-symmetric 2-(28, 12, 11) and 2-(36, 16, 12) designs, establish the existence of quasi-symmetric 2-(56, 16, 18) designs, and find three n...

Pseudo Quasi-3 Designs and their Applications to Coding Theory

We define a pseudo quasi-3 design as a symmetric design with the property that the derived and residual designs with respect to at least one block are quasi-symmetric. Quasi-symmetric designs can be used to construct optimal self complementary codes. In this article we give a construction of an infinite family of pseudo quasi-3 designs whose residual designs allow us to construct a family of co...

An infinite family of symmetric designs

In this paper, using the construction method of [3], we show that if q>2 is a prime power such that there exists an affine plane of order q -1, then there exists a ~trongly divisible 2 -«q -1)(qh -1), qh-l(q -1), qh-l) design for every h;;. 2. We show that these quasi-residual designs are embeddable, and hence establish the existence of an infinite family of symmetric 2_(qh+l_q + 1, qh, qh-l) d...

Polarities, quasi-symmetric designs, and Hamada's conjecture

We prove that every polarity of PG(2k − 1, q), where k ≥ 2, gives rise to a design with the same parameters and the same intersection numbers as, but not isomorphic to PGk(2k, q). In particular, the case k = 2 yields a new family of quasi-symmetric designs. We also show that our construction provides an infinite family of counterexamples to Hamada’s conjecture, for any field of prime order p. P...

Quasi - Latin designs and their use in glasshouse exper - 1 iments

This paper gives a general method for constructing quasi-Latin square, quasi-Latin 12 rectangle and extended quasi-Latin rectangle designs for symmetric factorial experiments. Two 13 further methods are given for parameter values satisfying certain conditions. Designs are 14 constructed for a range of numbers of rows and columns so that the different construction 15 techniques are illustrated. ...
