Abstract

We modify and generalize the construction by McFarland (1973) in two different ways to construct new semiregular divisible difference sets (DDSs) with λ₁≠0. The parameters of the DDS fall into a family of parameters found in Jungnickel (1982), where his construction is for divisible designs. The final section uses the idea of a K-matrix to find DDSs with a nonelementary abelian forbidden subgroup.
