Review text

Given a finite group \((G,+)\) and a fixed point free automorphism group \(A\) of \(G\) (i.e. \(A(x)\) and \(A\) have the same cardinal, for all nonzero \(x\) in \(G\)), a construction method of BIB-designs from \(G\) and \(A\) is given. In this way, the authors present a unifying point of view for the previous constructions of BIB-designs from planar near-rings, by using a generalization of the concept of a difference family on \(G\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 1061.16001].
