Cycling through a general combinatorial design on $\omega$
This is a generalisation of an older question inspired by a football tournament (which does not have an answer yet).
Let $\frak P$ be a partition of $\omega$ into blocks, that is, pairwise disjoint ...

On a combinatorial design inspired by a football (soccer) tournament
Real-world inspiration. My younger son was playing a micro football (soccer) tournament this afternoon with $3$ other friends. Let's label the $4$ kids $0,1,2,3$. They played $3$ matches:
$\{0,1\} \...

Does an $(x, bx)$-biregular graph always contain a $x$-regular bipartite subgraph?
I guess a discrete-mathematics-related question is still welcome in MO since I was new to the community and learned from this amazing past post. The following claim is a simplified and abstract form ...

Known result about existence of $n$-vertex $k$-uniform $r$-hypergraphs?
Are there known results about $n,k,r$ such that $n$-vertex $k$-uniform $r$-regular hypergraphs exist? If this is too large a class of hypergraphs, what if $k=\tilde{\theta}(\sqrt{n})$? What if an ...

Steiner-like systems with large edges and many intersections
Let $l\geq 3$ be an integer. Is there $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and a hypergraph $H=(\{1,\ldots,n\},E)$ with the following properties?
for all $e\in E$ we have $|e| \geq l$
$e_1\neq e_2 \in E \implies |e_1 \...

Constructions of $2-(v,3,3)$-designs
I am looking for ways to construct an infinite family of designs with parameters $2-(v,3,3)$ and apart from some doubling-type recursive constructions (such as in this paper) I haven't found anything ...

Intersecting 4-sets
Is it possible to have more than $N = \binom{\lfloor n/2\rfloor}{2}$ subsets of an $n$-set, each of size 4, such that each two of them intersect in 0 or 2 elements?
To see that $N$ is achievable, ...
