The article is concerned with a characterization of quasi-symmetric (QS) designs with intersection numbers 0 and y. It uses the idea of a good block. Such a block G has the property that for any block B with IG n B J = y, every point is on a block containing G n B. It is proved that if a QS design I

In this paper we show that Lander's coding-theoretic proof of (parts of) the Bruck-Ryser-Chowla Theorem can be suitably modified to obtain analogous number theoretic restrictions on the parameters of quasi-symmetric designs. These results may be thought of as extensions to odd primes of the recent b
A~TRACT. The following result is proved: Let D be a quasi-symmetric 3-design with intersection numbers x, y(0 ~< x < y < k). D has no three distinct blocks such that any two of them intersect in x points if and only if D is a Hadamard 3-design, or D has a parameter set (v, k, 2
