“…As mentioned above, a necessary condition for the existence of a (v, k, λ)-MD is that λv(v − 1) ≡ 0 mod k. This condition has been proved to be sufficient for the existence of a (v, k, λ)-PMD when: (i) k = 3, except for the non-existing (6, 3, 1)-PMD [5,23]; (ii) k = 4, except for v = 4 and λ odd, v = 8 and λ = 1 [4, Theorem 1.2]; (iii) k = 5, except for λ = 1, v ∈ {6, 10}, and possibly for λ = 1 and v ∈ {15, 20} [4,Theorem 1.3]. See [1,4,6,25] for more results on PMDs.…”
