Association schemes on triples (ASTs) are 3-dimensional analogues of classical association schemes. If a group acts two-transitively on a set, the orbits of the action induced on the triple Cartesian product of that set yields an AST. By…
An association scheme on triples (AST) is a three-dimensional analogue of a classical association scheme. Similar to how a transitive group action produces a Schurian classical association scheme, a two-transitive group action produces an…
Association schemes on triples (ASTs) are ternary analogues of classical association schemes, whose relations and adjacency algebras are ternary instead of binary. We provide a survey of the current progress in the study of ASTs,…
Association Schemes and coherent configurations (and the related Bose-Mesner algebra and coherent algebras) are well known in combinatorics with many applications. In the 1990s, Mesner and Bhattacharya introduced a three-dimensional…
In this paper, we obtain classification results for higher-dimensional analogues of classical association schemes called association schemes on triples (ASTs). We present an algorithm that enumerates all ASTs on a fixed number of vertices…
In this article, we focus on association schemes with some properties derived from the orbitals of a transitive permutation group $G$ with a one-point stabilizer $H$ satisfying $H <N_G(H)<N_G(N_G(H))\unlhd G$ and $|N_G(N_G(H))|=p^3$ where…
Recent classification of $\frac{3}{2}$-transitive permutation groups leaves us with three infinite families of groups which are neither $2$-transitive, nor Frobenius, nor one-dimensional affine. The groups of the first two families…
An infinite family of association schemes obtained from the general unitary groups acting transitively on the sets of isotropic vectors in the finite unitary spaces are investigated. We compute the parameters and determine the character…
n [D. de Caen, E.R. van Dam. Fissioned triangular schemes via the cross-ratio, {Europ. J. Combin.}, 22 (2001) 297-301], de Caen and van Dam constructed a fission scheme $\FT(q+1)$ of the triangular scheme on $\PG(1,q)$. This fission scheme…
For any finite group $G$, and any positive integer $n$, we construct an association scheme which admits the diagonal group $D_n(G)$ as a group of automorphisms. The rank of the association scheme is the number of partitions of $n$ into at…
A subset of a group G of Sym(n) is intersecting if for any pair of permutations $\pi,\sigma \in G$ there is an $i$ in {1,2,...,n} such that $\pi(i) = \sigma(i)$. It has been shown, using an algebraic approach, that the largest intersecting…
It is known that there are precisely three transitive permutation groups of degree $6$ that admit an invariant partition with three parts of size $2$ such that the kernel of the action on the parts has order $4$; these groups are called…
Using the classification of transitive groups of degree $n$, for $2 \leqslant n \leqslant 48$, we classify the Schurian association schemes of order $n$, and as a consequence, the transitive groups of degree $n$ that are $2$-closed. In…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the Terwilliger algebra of a quasi-thin Schurian association scheme to coincide with: (a) the centralizer algebra of a point stabilizer of its automorphism group, and (b) its subspace $T^0$.…
A Steiner triple system STS$(v)$ is called $f$-pyramidal if it has an automorphism group fixing $f$ points and acting sharply transitively on the remaining $v-f$ points. In this paper, we focus on the STSs that are $f$-pyramidal over some…
We construct a pair of non-commutative rank 8 association schemes from a rank 3 non-symmetric association scheme. For the pair, two association schemes have the same character table but different Frobenius-Schur indicators. This situation…
A $2$-distance-transitive graph is a vertex-transitive graph whose vertex stabilizer is transitive on both the first step and the second step neighborhoods. In this paper, we first answer a question of A. Devillers, M. Giudici, C. H. Li and…
In this paper we analyze the structure of transitive permutation groups that have trivial four point stabilizers, but some nontrivial three point stabilizer. In particular we give a complete, detailed classification when the group is simple…
A finite transitive permutation group is said to be 3/2-transitive if all the nontrivial orbits of a point stabilizer have the same size greater than 1. Examples include the 2-transitive groups, Frobenius groups and several other less…
An association scheme is called quasi-thin if the valency of each its basic relation is one or two. A quasi-thin scheme is Kleinian if the thin residue of it forms a Klein group with respect to the relation product. It is proved that any…
