Abstract: Let $G$ be a group acting on a finite set $Omega$. Then $G$ acts on $OmegaimesOmega$ by its entry-wise action and its orbits form the basis relations of a coherent configuration (or shortly scheme). Our concern is to consider what follows from the assumption that the number of orbits of $G$ on $Omeg{a}_{i}imesOmeg{a}_j$ is constant whenever $Omeg{a}_i$ and $Omeg{a}_j$ are orbits of $G$ on $Omega$. One can conclude from the assumption that the actions of $G$ on $Omeg{a}_i$'s have the same permutation character and are not necessarily equivalent. From this viewpoint one may ask how many inequivalent actions of a given group with the same permutation character there exist. In this article we will approach to this question by a purely combinatorial method in terms of schemes and investigate the following topics: (i) balanced schemes and their central primitive idempotents, (ii) characterization of reduced balanced schemes.
