We give direct constructions for 233 group divisible designs with block size five, mostly of type $g^u m^1$, $m > 0$.

In this paper, we consider the existence of group divisible designs (GDDs) with block size $4$ and group sizes $4$ and $7$. We show that there exists a 4-GDD of type $4^t 7^s$ for all but a finite specified set of feasible values for $(t,…

We discuss group divisible designs with block size four and type $g^u b^1 (gu/2)^1$, where $u = 5$, 6 and 7. For integers $a$ and $b$, we prove the following. (i) A 4-GDD of type $(4a)^5 b^1 (10a)^1$ exists if and only if $a \ge 1$, $b…

In this paper we provide a $4$-GDD of type $2^2 5^5$, thereby solving the existence question for the last remaining feasible type for a $4$-GDD with no more than $30$ points. We then show that $4$-GDDs of type $2^t 5^s$ exist for all but a…

Recently, a construction of group divisible designs (GDDs) derived from the decoding of quadratic residue (QR) codes was given. In this paper, we extend the idea to obtain a new family of GDDs, which is also involved with a well-known…

We show that the necessary conditions for the existence of 4-GDDs of type g^u m^1 are sufficient for g congruent to 0 (mod h), h = 39, 51, 57, 69, 87, 93, and for g = 13, 17, 19, 23, 25, 29, 31 and 35. More generally, we show that for all g…

We present constructions and results about GDDs with two groups and block size 6. We study those GDDs in which each block has configuration (s,t), that is in which each block has exactly s points from one of the two groups and t points from…

We deal with group divisible designs that have block size 4 and group type g^u m^1, where g = 2 or 4 (mod 6). We show that the necessary conditions for the existence of a 4-GDD of type g^u m^1 are sufficient when g = 14, 20, 22, 26, 28, 32,…

In this note, we give direct constructions of some group divisible designs (GDDs) with block size $4$ that have up to $50$ points.

Strong difference families of special types are introduced to produce new relative difference families from the point of view of both asymptotic existences and concrete examples. As applications, group divisible designs of type $30^u$ with…

This paper gives a construction of group divisible designs on the binary extension fields with block sizes 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, respectively, which is motivated from the decoding of binary quadratic residue codes. A conjecture is proposed for…

A group divisible design $\mbox{GDD}(m,n;\lambda_1,\lambda_2)$, is an ordered pair $(V, \cal{B})$ where $V$ is an $(m+n)$-set of symbols while $\cal{B}$ is a collection of $3$-subsets (called blocks) of $V$ satisfying the following…

The concept of group divisible codes, a generalization of group divisible designs with constant block size, is introduced in this paper. This new class of codes is shown to be useful in recursive constructions for constant-weight and…

The design spectrum has been determined for ten of the 15 graphs with six vertices and ten edges. In this paper we solve the design spectrum problem for the remaining five graphs with three possible exceptions.

Let $G$ be a finite solvable group, let $p$ be a prime such that $p \geq 5$ and $O_p(G)=1$, and we denote $|G|_p=p^n$, then $G$ contains a block of defect less than or equal to $\lfloor \frac {3n} 5 \rfloor$. Let $G$ be a finite solvable…

In this paper we investigate the spectrum of super-simple 2-$(v,5,1)$ directed designs (or simply super-simple 2-$(v,5,1)$DDs) and also the size of their smallest defining sets. We show that for all $v\equiv1,5\ ({\rm mod}\ 10)$ except…

In this paper, we completely solve the existence of large sets of $(3,\lambda)$-GDDs of type $g^u$ and the existence of a simple $(3,\lambda)$-GDD of type $g^u$.

We consider the existence problem for a semi-cyclic holey group divisible design of type (n,m^t) with block size 3, which is denoted by a 3-SCHGDD of type (n,m^t). When t is odd and n\neq 8 or t is doubly even and t\neq 8, the existence…

Let $p$ be a prime such that $p \geq 5$. Let $G$ be a finite $p$-solvable group and let $p^a$ be the largest power of $p$ dividing $\chi(1)$ for an irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$, we show that $|G:F(G)|_p \leq p^{5.5a}$. Let $G$ be a…

A well known class of objects in combinatorial design theory are {group divisible designs}. Here, we introduce the $q$-analogs of group divisible designs. It turns out that there are interesting connections to scattered subspaces,…
