On the wedge product of table algebras and applications to association schemes

In this paper we will first present a generalization of the wedge product of association schemes to table algebras and give a necessary and sufficient condition for a table algebra to be the wedge product of two table algebras. Then we show that if the duals of two commutative table algebras are table algebras, then the dual of their wedge product is a table algebra, and is also isomorphic to the wedge product of the duals of those table algebras in the reverse order. Some applications to association schemes are also given.
