Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present a construction of t-divisible designs (DDs) for t > 3, because such DDs seem to be missing in the literature. To this end, tools such as finite projective spaces and their algebraic varieties are employed. More precisely, in a first step an abstract construction, called t-lifting, is developed. It starts from a set X containing a t-DD and a group G acting on X. Then several explicit examples are given, where X is a subset of PG(n,q) and G is a subgroup of GL_n + 1(q). In some cases X is obtained from a cone with a Veronesean or an h-sphere as its basis. In other examples, X arises from a projective embedding of a Witt design. As a result, for any integer t ? 2 infinitely many non-isomorphic t-DDs are found.
