The aim of this book is to provide a unified exposition of the
theory of symmetric designs with emphasis on recent developments.
The authors cover the combinatorial aspects of the theory giving
particular attention to the construction of symmetric designs and
related objects. The last five chapters of the book are devoted to
balanced generalized weighing matrices, decomposable symmetric
designs, subdesigns of symmetric designs, non-embeddable
quasi-residual designs, and Ryser designs. Most results in these
chapters have never previously appeared in book form. The book
concludes with a comprehensive bibliography of over 400 entries.
Researchers in all areas of combinatorial designs, including coding
theory and finite geometries, will find much of interest here.
Detailed proofs and a large number of exercises make this book
suitable as a text for an advanced course in combinatorial designs.
