Abstract

We develop the notion of t-homogeneous, G-semiregular large sets of t-designs, show that there are infinitely many 3-homogeneous PSL(2, q)-semiregular large sets when q≡ 3 mod 4, two sporadic 3-homogeneous AΓL(1,32)-semiregular large sets, and no other interesting t-homogeneous G-semiregular large sets for t ≥ 3.
