In this article, we construct overlarge sets of disjoint S(3, 4, 3 n -1) and overlarge sets of disjoint S(3, 4, 3 n + 1) for all n β₯ 2. Up to now, the only known infinite sequence of overlarge sets of disjoint S(3, 4, v) were the overlarge sets of disjoint S(3, 4, 2 n ) obtained from the oval conics

## Abstract External difference families (EDFs) are a type of new combinatorial designs originated from cryptography. Some results had been obtained by Chang and Ding, the connection between EDFs and disjoint difference families (DDFs) was also established. In this paper, further cyclotomic constru
We study minimal blocking sets in PG(2, q) having q+m points outside some fixed line. If 0<m<(-q)Γ2 then either the blocking set is large, or every line contains 1 mod p points of the blocking set, where p is the characteristic of the field GF(q). 1997 Academic Press 1. INTRODUCTION A blocking set i
Suppose that any t members (t 2) of a regular family on an n element set have at least k common elements. It is proved that the largest member of the family has at least k 1Γt n 1&1Γt elements. The same holds for balanced families, which is a generalization of the regularity. The estimate is asympto
We investigate a number of questions concerning representations of a set of numbers as sums of subsets of some other set. In particular, we obtain several results on the possible sizes of the second set when the first set consists of a geometric sequence of integers, partially answering a generalisa
