Abstract

Two resolutions of the same \(\hbox {SQS}(v)\) are said to be orthogonal, when each parallel class of one resolution has at most one block in common with each parallel class of the other resolution. If an \(\hbox {SQS}(v)\) has two orthogonal resolutions, the \(\hbox {SQS}(v)\) is called a doubly resolvable \(\hbox {SQS}(v)\). In this paper, we use a quadrupling construction to obtain an infinite class of doubly resolvable Steiner quadruple systems. We also give some results of doubly resolvable H designs and doubly resolvable candelabra quadruple systems.
