Ternary and $n$-ary $f$-distributive Structures

Abstract

We introduce and study ternary ff-distributive structures, Ternary ff-quandles and more generally their higher nn-ary analogues. A classification of ternary ff-quandles is provided in low dimensions. Moreover, we study extension theory and introduce a cohomology theory for ternary, and more generally nn-ary, ff-quandles. Furthermore, we give some computational examples.
