Abstract: | ![]() In this paper, we investigate the existence of incomplete group divisible designs (IGDDs) with block size four, group-type (g, h) u and general index λ. The necessary conditions for the existence of such a design are that u ≥ 4, g ≥ 3h, λg(u − 1) ≡ 0 (mod 3), λ(g − h)(u−1) ≡ 0 (mod 3), and ⇌u(u − 1)(g 2 − h 2) ≡ 0 (mod 12). These necessary conditions are shown to be sufficient for all λ ≥ 2. The known existence result for λ = 1 is also improved. |
