Combinatorial aspects of block designs (05B05)

Abstract: 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 $age1$, $bequiva$ (mod 3) and $4aleble10a$. (ii) A 4-GDD of type $(6a+3{)}^6{b}^1(18a+9{)}^1$ exists if and only if $age0$, $bequiv3$ (mod 6) and $6a+3leble18a+9$. (iii) A 4-GDD of type $(6a{)}^6{b}^1(18a{)}^1$ exists if and only if $age1$, $bequiv0$ (mod 3) and $6aleble18a$. (iv) A 4-GDD of type $(12a{)}^7{b}^1(42a{)}^1$ exists if and only if $age1$, $bequiv0$ (mod 3) and $12aleble42a$, except possibly for $12ain120,180,240,360,420,720,840$, $24a<b<42a$, for $12ain144,1008$, $30a<b<42a$, and for $12ain168,252,336,504,1512$, $36a<b<42a$.
