The notion of a splitting authentication code is very important in the context of an authentication code with arbitration. Ogata et al. [Discrete Math., 279 (2004), pp. 383--405] characterized an optimal splitting authentication code in terms of a splitting balanced incomplete block design (BIBD). A $(v,u \times c,1)$-splitting BIBD is a pair $({\cal V}, {\cal B})$, where ${\cal V}$ is a v-set of points and ${\cal B}$ is a collection of $u \times c$ arrays, called blocks, with entries from ${\cal V}$, such that any point of ${\cal V}$ can occur at most once in any block, and forany two distinct points x and y of ${\cal V}$, there is exactly one block of ${\cal B}$ in which x and y occur in different rows. In this paper, we describe various combinatorial constructions for splitting BIBDs (or, equivalently, optimal splitting authentication codes). We show that the necessary conditions for the existence of a $(v,u \times c,1)$-splitting BIBD (or, equivalently, an optimal c-splitting authentication code with ...
