Abstract

The existence of large sets of Kirkman triple systems (LKTSs) is one of the best-known open problems in combinatorial design theory. Steiner quadruple systems with resolvable derived designs (RDSQSs) play an important role in the recursive constructions of LKTSs. In this paper, we introduce a special combinatorial structure $$\hbox {RDSQS}^{*}(v)$$ and use it to present a construction for RDSQS(4v). As a consequence, some new infinite families of LKTSs are given.
