Super‐simple resolvable balanced incomplete block designs with block size 4 and index 2

The necessary conditions for the existence of a super‐simple resolvable balanced incomplete block design on v points with block size k = 4 and index λ = 2, are that v ≥ 16 and . These conditions are shown to be sufficient. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Combin Designs 15: 341–356, 2007     

Decomposable super‐simple RBIBDs with block size 4 and index 6

Necessary conditions for the existence of a decomposable super‐simple resolvable $\left(v,4,6\right)$‐BIBD whose two component subdesigns are both resolvable $\left(v,4,3\right)$‐BIBDs are $v\equiv 0$ (mod $4$) and $v\ge 16$. In this paper, it is proved that these necessary conditions are sufficient, except possibly for $v\in \left\{268,284,292,296\right\}$.     

Super‐simple resolvable balanced incomplete block designs with block size 4 and index 3

The necessary conditions for the existence of a super‐simple resolvable balanced incomplete block design on v points with k = 4 and λ = 3, are that v ≥ 8 and v ≡ 0 mod 4. These conditions are shown to be sufficient except for v = 12. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Resolvable Mendelsohn triple systems with equal sized holes

An HMTS of type {n₁, n₂, ⋖, n_h} is a directed graph which can be decomposed into 3-circuits. If the 3-circuits can be partitioned into parallel classes, then the HMTS is called an RHMTS. In this article it is shown that the RHMTSs of type m^h exist when mh &equiv 0 (mod 3) and (m, h) &ne (1, 6), with the possible exception of h = 6 and , where M₁₇ = {m|m is divisible by a prime less than 17}. The existence of Mendelsohn frames, which is closely related to RHMTS, is also considered in this article. It is proved that a Mendelsohn frame of type t^u exists if and only if u ≥ 4 and t(u - 1) ≡ 0(mod 3) with 2 possible exceptions. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Combin Designs 5:329–340, 1997
