A novel use of t-packings to construct d-disjunct matrices

A t-packing is an ordered pair (V,P) where V is a v-set and P is a collection of k-subsets (blocks) of V such that each t-subset of V occurs in at most one block of P. If each t-subset of V occurs in exactly one block of P, then (V,P) is known as a Steiner (t,k,v)-design. In this paper, we explore a novel use of t-packings to construct d-disjunct matrices.
