文摘In this paper, we investigate the intersection numbers of nearly Kirkman triple systems.JN[V] is the set of all integers k such that there is a pair of NKTS(v)s with a common uncovered collection of 2-subset intersecting in k triples. It has been established that JN[v] = {0, 1,. v(v-2)/6-6,v(v-2)/6-4,v(v-2)/6} for any integers v = 0 (mod 6) and v ≥ 66. For v ≤ 60, there are 8 cases leftundecided.
