More generally, we show that for all g congruent to 3 (mod 6), the possible exceptions occur only when u = 8 and g is not divisible by any of 9, 15, 21, 33, 39, 51, 57, 69, 87 or 93. Consequently we are able to extend the known spectrum for g congruent to 1 and g congruent to 5 (mod 6). Also we complete the spectrum for 4-GDDs of type (3a)^4 (6a)^1 (3b)^1.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-06-19T22:52:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05B05" ], "keywords": [ "group divisible designs", "block size", "exceptions occur", "necessary conditions", "sufficient" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 106, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
