We classify the symmetric association schemes with faithful spherical embedding in 3-dimensional Euclidean space. Our result is based on previous research on primitive association schemes with $m_1 = 3$.
In this article we determine feasible parameter sets for (what could potentially be) commutative association schemes with noncyclotomic eigenvalues that are of smallest possible rank and order. A feasible parameter set for a commutative…
One may think of a $d$-class association scheme as a $(d+1)$-dimensional matrix algebra over $\mathbb{R}$ closed under Schur products. In this context, an imprimitive scheme is one which admits a subalgebra of block matrices, also closed…
An association scheme is called skew-symmetric if it has no symmetric adjacency relations other than the diagonal one. In this paper, we study 4-class skew-symmetric association schemes. In J. Ma [On the nonexistence of skew-symmetric…
In this paper, we study association schemes on the anisotropic points of classical polar spaces. Our main result concerns non-degenerate elliptic and hyperbolic quadrics in PG$(n,q)$ with $q$ odd. We define relations on the anisotropic…
The set of all artin level quotients of a polynomial algebra in n variables having specified socle degree and type admits a parameter space. It is in fact a quasiprojective variety, naturally embedded in a Grassmannian. We give a geometric…
We consider an ensemble of self-dual matrices with arbitrary complex entries. This ensemble is closely related to a previously defined ensemble of anti-symmetric matrices with arbitrary complex entries. We study the two-level correlation…
Every graph G can be embedded in a Euclidean space as a two-distance set. The Euclidean representation number of G is the smallest dimension in which G is representable by such an embedding. We consider spherical and J-spherical…
This article provides, over any field, infinitely many algebraic embeddings of the affine spaces $\mathbb{A}^1$ and $\mathbb{A}^2$ into smooth quadrics of dimension two and three respectively, which are pairwise non-equivalent under…
Association schemes form one of the main objects of algebraic combinatorics, classically defined on finite sets. In this paper we define association schemes on arbitrary, possibly uncountable sets with a measure. We study operator…
An arrangement of pseudocircles is a finite set of oriented closed Jordan curves each two of which cross each other in exactly two points. To describe the combinatorial structure of arrangements on closed orientable surfaces, in (Linhart,…
Let X be a pseudocyclic association scheme in which all the nontrivial relations are strongly regular graphs with the same eigenvalues. We prove that the principal part of the first eigenmatrix of X is a linear combination of an incidence…
An association scheme is amorphous if it has as many fusion schemes as possible. Symmetric amorphous schemes were classified by A. V. Ivanov [A. V. Ivanov, Amorphous cellular rings II, in Investigations in algebraic theory of combinatorial…
In this paper we aim to characterize association schemes all of whose symmetric fusion schemes have only integral eigenvalues, and classify those obtained from a regular action of a finite group by taking its orbitals.
We exhibit the joint symmetric distribution of the following two parameters on the set of unlabeled, simple, connected graphs with $n$ vertices. The first parameter is the maximal number of leaves attached to a vertex. The second parameter…
We prove that a commutative association scheme is imprimitive if and only if it admits a multivariate $P$- or $Q$-polynomial structure with respect to an elimination-type monomial order. This provides a direct bridge between the classical…
In this paper we characterize "large" regular graphs using certain entries in the projection matrices onto the eigenspaces of the graph. As a corollary of this result, we show that "large" association schemes become $P$-polynomial…
A simple iterative scheme is proposed for locating the parameter values for which a 2-parameter family of real symmetric matrices has a double eigenvalue. The convergence is proved to be quadratic. An extension of the scheme to complex…
In the preprint arXiv:2511.07900 we proved that there exists a localizing ring $A_M$ for $A$ an associative ring with unit, and $M=\oplus_{i=1}^rM_i$ a direct sum of $r\geq 1$ simple right $A$-modules. For a homomorphism of associative…
