Abstract
A group divisible design , is an ordered pair where is an -set of symbols while is a collection of -subsets (called blocks) of satisfying the following properties: the -set is divided into 2 groups of size and of size : each pair of symbols from the same group occurs in exactly blocks in , and each pair of symbols from different groups occurs in exactly blocks in . and are referred to as first index and second index, respectively. Here, we focus on an existence problem of s when and . We obtain the necessary conditions and prove that these conditions are sufficient for most of the cases.
