A relationship between multiple conjugation quandle/biquandle colorings

Geometric Topology 2020-03-17 v4

Abstract

We define a functor Q\mathcal{Q} from the category of multiple conjugation biquandles to that of multiple conjugation quandles. We show that for any multiple conjugation biquandle XX, there is a one-to-one correspondence between the set of XX-colorings and that of Q(X)\mathcal{Q}(X)-colorings diagrammatically for any handlebody-link and spatial trivalent graph. In particular, we prove that the set of GG-family of Alexander biquandles colorings is isomorphic to that of GG-family of Alexander quandles colorings as modules.
