Schurian Scheme


A Schurian scheme is an association scheme whose relations are the orbitals of a permutation group acting transitively on the underlying set. More generally, a coherent configuration is Schurian when its relations are the orbitals of a permutation group. The group acts transitively exactly when the coherent configuration is a homogeneous coherent configuration.
