The generalized Euler number E_{n|k} counts the number of permutations of {1,2,...,n} which have a descent in position m if and only if m is divisible by k. The classical Euler numbers are the special case when k=2. In this paper, we study…

We adapt the commutator theory of universal algebra to the particular setting of racks and quandles, exploiting a Galois connection between congruences and certain normal subgroups of the displacement group. Congruence properties such as…

In this paper, we investigate a quandle structure induced by an augmented rack arising from a gauge transformation group. We construct a quandle from a principal bundle and its discrete generalization. When we see a group as a (discrete)…

This paper is devoted to qualgebras and squandles, which are quandles enriched with a compatible binary/unary operation. Algebraically, they are modeled after groups with conjugation and multiplication/squaring operations. Topologically,…

In this paper, a theory of quandle rings is proposed for quandles analogous to the classical theory of group rings for groups, and interconnections between quandles and associated quandle rings are explored.

A quandle is an algebraic system originated in knot theory, and can be regarded as a generalization of symmetric spaces. The inner automorphism group of a quandle is defined as the group generated by the point symmetries (right…

Translation from the Latin of Euler's "Demonstratio theorematis circa ordinem in summis divisorum observatum" (1760). E244 in the Enestroem index. In his previous paper E243, Euler stated the pentagonal number theorem and assuming it proved…

We show that the cohomology groups usually associated with racks and quandles agree with the Quillen cohomology groups for the algebraic theories of racks and quandles, respectively. We also explain how this makes available the entire range…

Several different versions of the theory of numerosities have been introduced in the literature. Here, we unify these approaches in a consistent frame through the notion of set of labels, relating numerosities with the Kiesler field of…

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 2-twist spun trefoil is an example of a sphere that is knotted in 4-dimensional space. Here this example is shown to be distinct from the same sphere with the reversed orientation. To demonstrate this fact a state-sum invariant for…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce and investigate the notion of derivation for quandle algebras. More precisely, we describe the symmetries on structure constants providing a characterization for a linear map to be a derivation. We…

While there are many identities involving the Euler and Bernoulli numbers, they are usually proved analytically or inductively. We prove two identities involving Euler and Bernoulli numbers with combinatorial reasoning via up-down…

We define a class of quandle-like structures called pseudoquandles and analyze some of their algebraic properties.

We introduce Euler summability method for sequences of fuzzy numbers and state a Tauberian theorem concerning Euler summability method, of which proof provides an alternative to that of K. Knopp[\"Uber das Eulersche Summierungsverfahren II,…

Inspired from research subjects in sub-riemannian geometry and metric geometry, we propose uniform idempotent right quasigroups and emergent algebras as an alternative to differentiable algebras. Idempotent right quasigroups (irqs) are…

In generalization of knot quandles we introduce similar algebraic structures associated with arbitrary pairs consisting of a path-connected topological space and its path-connected subspace.

This article presents the basis of a theory of entanglement. We begin with a classical theory of entangled discrete measures in Section~1. Section~2 treats quantum mechanics and discusses the statistics of bounded operators on a Hilbert…

The Gauss-Bonnet theorem for a polyhedron (a union of finitely many compact convex polytopes) in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space expresses the Euler characteristic of the polyhedron as a sum of certain curvatures, which are different from…

We prove that an Alexander quandle of prime order is generated by any pair of distinct elements. Furthermore, we prove for such a quandle that any ordered pair of distinct elements can be sent to any other such pair by an automorphism of…
