Design theory is the subfield of combinatorics concerning the existence and construction of highly symmetric arrangements. Finite projective planes, latin squares, and Steiner triple systems are examples of designs.

One question about nega-cyclic Hadamard matrices
Such matrices do not exist as from the parity consideration already first two rows cannot be orthogonal.

On the existence of symmetric matrices with prescribed number of 1's on each row
Replace each $-1$ with $0$. Then the matrix you look for is the adjacency matrix of a graph with a given degree sequence $r_1, r_2, \dots$. Reconstruction of such a graph (and its adjacency matrix) is …

Does an $(x, bx)$-biregular graph always contain a $x$-regular bipartite subgraph?
The claim does not hold. Here is a counterexample with $a=7$, $b=2$ and $x=3$.
This graph has partite sets of sizes $|U|=14$ and $|V|=7$. Labeling vertices of $V$ as $1,2,\dots,7$, the vertices in $U$ …

When do such regular set systems exist?
Switching to complements, the question is if we can choose 77 6-subsets of an 11-set $M$ such that any 5-subset of $M$ is contained in a chosen 6-subset (it is clear that this subset would be unique b …

Solving a Diophantine equation related to Algebraic Geometry, Steiner systems and $q$-binomi...
Let $t = 1+q+q^2+\dots+q^n $ then each of the equations (1) and (2) implies that $24t+1$ is a square (namely, $24t+1=(12k+1)^2$ and $24t+1=(12k+5)^2$, respectively). For $n=2$ that leads to a Pellian …
