Remarks on Balanced Incomplete Block Designs
Proof. Assume the hypothesis and the falsity of either conclusion. Construct matrix A of 2x + 2 rows and 4x+4 columns, with entries + 1 and — 1. The first column contains exclusively +1, and the second column — 1. Set up one-to-one correspondences between rows of A and elements of D ; between columns other than the first two of A and blocks of D. Enter +1 if the element is contained in the bloc...
متن کاملFinding Balanced Incomplete Block Designs with Metaheuristics
This paper deals with the generation of balanced incomplete block designs (BIBD), a hard constrained combinatorial problem with multiple applications. This problem is here formulated as a combinatorial optimization problem (COP) whose solutions are binary matrices. Two different neighborhood structures are defined, based on bit-flipping and position-swapping. These are used within three metaheu...
متن کاملOn balanced incomplete-block designs with repeated blocks
Balanced incomplete-block designs (BIBDs) with repeated blocks are studied and constructed. We continue work initiated by van Lint and Ryser in 1972 and pursued by van Lint in 1973. We concentrate on constructing (v, b, r, k, λ)-BIBDs with repeated blocks, especially those with gcd(b, r, λ) = 1 and r ≤ 20. We obtain new bounds for the multiplicity of a block in terms of the parameters of a BIBD...
متن کاملBalanced incomplete block designs with block size~9: Part III
The necessary conditions for the existence of a balanced incomplete block design on v points, with index λ and block size k, are that: λ(v − 1) ≡ 0 mod (k − 1) λv(v − 1) ≡ 0 mod k(k − 1) Earlier work has studied k = 9 with λ ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12}. In this article we show that the necessary conditions are sufficient for λ = 9 and every other λ not previously studied.
