Abstract

In this paper we classify complex Hadamard matrices contained in the Bose–Mesner algebra of 3-class nonsymmetric association schemes. As a consequence of ourclassification, we have two infinite families and some small examples of complex Hadamard matrices contained in the Bose–Mesner algebra of a self-dual fission of a complete multipartite graph.
