An H-design H(v, g, k, t) is a triple (X , G , B) , where X is a set of gv points, G is a partition of X into v disjoint groups of size g, and B is a set of G -transverse k-subsets, called blocks, such that each G -transverse t-subset is contained in exactly one block of B . A frame-derived H-design FDH(v, g, 4, 3) is an H(v, g, 4, 3) whose derived design at every point forms a Kirkman frame, an H (v - 1 , g , 3 , 2) having a resolution into g (v - 1) / 2 holey parallel classes. FDH(v, g, 4, 3)s are proved to be effective designs to produce large sets of Kirkman triple systems (LKTS) in this paper. Related recursive constructions are established and direct constructions for FDH(v, 2, 4, 3)s are displayed by using automorphism groups. The existence result on LKTS is improved as well.
