In this article, we study the classification of flag-transitive, point-primitive 2-(v, k, 4) symmetric designs. We prove that if the socle of the automorphism group G of a flag-transitive, point-primitive nontrivial 2-(v, k, 4) symmetric design D is an alternating group A n for n ≥ 5, then (v, k) =

An automorphism of a 2-(v, k, 1) design acts as a permutation of the points and as another of the blocks. We show that the permutation of the blocks has at least as many cycles, of lengths n > k, as the permutation of the points. Looking at Steiner triple systems we show that this holds for all n un
In this paper, we prove that if D is a 2-(v, k, 1) design with G ≤ Aut(D) block primitive and soc (G) = 2 G 2 (q) then D is a Ree unital with parameters 2-(q 3 + 1, q + 1, 1).
Let p be an odd prime number such that p -1 = 2 e m for some odd m and e ≥ 2. In this article, by using the special linear fractional group PSL(2, p), for each i, 1 ≤ i ≤ e, except particular cases, we construct a 2-design with parameters v = p + 1, k = (p -1)/2 i + 1 and λ = ((p-1)/2 i +1)(p-1)/2 =
Existing sufficient conditions for the construction of a complete set of mutually orthogonal frequency squares from an affine resolvable design are improved to give necessary and sufficient conditions. In doing so a design is exhibited that proves that the class of complete sets of MOFS under consid
