In the paper we describe the class of principal quandles and show that connected quandles can be decomposed as a disjoint union of principal quandles. We also prove that simple affine quandles are finite and they can be characterized among…
We study simple superfaithful and superconnected quandles and we found counterexamples to a conjecture suggested by computational data. We provide also examples of superconnected quandles built using group theoretical results and…
Characteristic properties of corings with a grouplike element are analysed. Associated differential graded rings are studied. A correspondence between categories of comodules and flat connections is established. A generalisation of the…
In this paper we provide an alternative characterization of finite simply connected quandles involving only cocycles with values in abelian groups of prime size. As a corollary of such a characterization and the classification of connected…
The hypothesis considered here is that cognition is based on a small set of systems-level computational primitives that are defined at a level higher than single neurons. It is pointed out that for one such set of primitives, whose…
In this paper, we give a characterization of homogeneous quandles with abelian inner automorphism groups. In particular, we show that such a quandle is expressed as an abelian extension of a trivial quandle. Our construction is a…
We establish a canonical correspondence between connected quandles and certain configurations in transitive groups, called quandle envelopes. This correspondence allows us to efficiently enumerate connected quandles of small orders, and…
Cores are, besides connectivity components, one among few concepts that provides us with efficient decompositions of large graphs and networks. In the paper a generalization of the notion of core of a graph based on vertex property function…
We generalize Jacobson's notion of primitive ring to the setting of quantales. We show that every primitive ring gives rise to a primitive quantale of ideals. We then prove a density theorem for strongly primitive quantales. Furthermore, we…
A relational structure is a core, if all its endomorphisms are embeddings. This notion is important for computational complexity classification of constraint satisfaction problems. It is a fundamental fact that every finite structure has a…
We introduce the notion of the power quandle of a group, an algebraic structure that forgets the multiplication but keeps the conjugation and the power maps. Compared with plain quandles, power quandles are much better invariants of groups.…
The knot group is the fundamental group of a knot or link complement. A necessary and sufficient conditions for a group to be realized as the knot group of some link was provided. This result was shown using the closed braid method.…
For any minor-closed class of matroids over a fixed finite field, we state an exact structural characterization for the sufficiently connected matroids in the class. We also state a number of conjectures that might be approachable using the…
We give a comprehensive description of conjugation quandles and their connectedness. In this context, we find a characterization of Hayashi's conjecture (2013) in terms of a centrality condition of groups. This condition is thus a…
In this paper, we investigate structural properties of the Cayley graph of a quandle and describe this graph for several important classes of quandles, including conjugation, Takasaki, dihedral, and Alexander quandles. In particular, we…
The notion of $p_g$-ideals for normal surface singularities has been proved to be very useful. On the other hand, the core of ideals has been proved to be very important concept and also very mysterious one. However, the computation of the…
We define formal orbifolds over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic as curves together with some branch data. Their \'etale coverings and their fundamental groups are also defined. These fundamental group approximates…
This paper develops an approach for describing centrally extended groups, as determining the adjoint groups associated with quandles. Furthermore, we explicitly describe such groups of some quandles. As a corollary, we determine some second…
A quandle is an algebraic system whose axioms generalize the algebraic structure of the point symmetries of symmetric spaces. In this paper, we give a definition of Euler characteristics for quandles. In particular, the quandle Euler…
We continue the study of the quandle of homomorphisms into a medial quandle begun in Crans and Nelson. We show that it suffices to consider only medial source quandles, and therefore the structure theorem of Jedlicka et al. provides a…
