On Theory and Applications of BIB Designs with Repeated Blocks

The Annals of Statistics, 1977
Consider BIB designs with parameters $v, b, r, k$ and $\lambda$. Define the support of a BIB design to be the set of its distinct blocks and let the cardinality of the support be $b^\ast$. If $b^\ast < b$ then the design is said to be a BIB design with repeated blocks.

On the BIB design having the minimum p-rank

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 1975
AbstractIt is shown that (i) among BIB designs with parameters (2t+1 − 1, 2t+1 − 1, 2t − 1, 2t − 1, 2t−1 − 1), the incidence matrix of the BIB design PG(t, 2):t − 1 derived from a finite projective geometry PG(t, 2) has the minimum 2-rank and (ii) among BIB designs with parameters (2t, 2t+1 − 2, 2t − 1, 2−1, 2t−1 − 1), the incidence matrix of the BIB ...
