On separability of Tatra association schemes

Abstract

A Tatra association scheme is an association scheme arising from a symmetric bilinear form defined on the equivalence classes of nonzero $2$-dimensional vectors modulo some subgroup of the multiplicative group of a finite field. In the present paper, we prove that every such association scheme is $2$-separable, i.e. it is determined up to isomorphism by the tensor of its $2$-dimensional intersection numbers.
