Let J R (v) denote the set of all integers k such that there exists a pair of KTS(v) with precisely k triples in common. In this article we determine the set J R (v) for v#3 (mod 6) (only 10 cases are left undecided for v=15, 21, 27, 33, 39) and establish that J R (v)=I(v) for v#3 (mod 6) and v 45,

## Abstract The following results for proper quasiβsymmetric designs with nonβzero intersection numbers __x__,__y__ and Ξ»β>β1 are proved. Let __D__ be a quasiβsymmetric design with __z__β=β__y__βββ__x__ and __v__ββ₯β2__k__. If __x__ββ₯β1β+β__z__β+β__z__^3^ then Ξ»β<β__x__β+β1β+β__z__β+β__z__^3^. Let
Given a BIBD S = (V, B), its 1-block-intersection graph GS has as vertices the elements of B; two vertices B1, B2 β B are adjacent in GS if |B1 β© B2| = 1. If S is a triple system of arbitrary index Ξ», it is shown that GS is hamiltonian.
## Abstract In this paper, we present a conjecture that is a common generalization of the DoyenβWilson Theorem and Lindner and Rosa's intersection theorem for Steiner triple systems. Given __u__, __v__ β‘ 1,3 (mod 6), __u__ < __v__ < 2__u__β+β 1, we ask for the minimum __r__ such that there exists a
