Sažetak
Let $p$ and $2p-1$ be prime powers and $p \equiv 3\ (mod\ 4)$. We describe a construction of a series of Siamese twin designs with Menon parameters $(4p^2, 2p^2 - p, p^2 - p)$ intersecting in a derived design with parameters $(2p^2-p, p^2-p, p^2-p-1)$, and a pairwise balanced design $PBD(2p^2-p, \{;p^2, p^2-p\}; , p^2-p-1)$. When $p$ and $2p-1$ are primes, the derived design and the pairwise balanced design are cyclic. Further, these two Menon designs with parameters $(4p^2, 2p^2 - p, p^2 - p)$ lead to amicable regular Hadamard matrices of order $4p^2$.
