Abstract
A quandle is an algebraic structure whose axioms correspond to the Reidemeister moves of knot theory. S. Kamada introduced the notion of a quandle with a good involution, which is later called a symmetric quandle. We are interested in the algebraic structure of symmetric quandles. Given a group , an element and a certain subgroup , one can obtain the quandle. D. Joyce showed that every quandle is isomorphic to the disjoint union of such quandles. In this paper, given a group , elements in and a certain subgroup , we construct a symmetric quandle. Futhermore, we show that every symmetric quandle is isomorphic to the disjoint union of such quandles.
