In [9], automorphism groups of quandles (up to isomorphisms) of order less than or equal to 5 were given. With the help of the software Maple, we compute the inner and automorphism groups of all seventy three quandles of order six listed in the appendix of [4]. Since computations of automorphisms of quandles relates to the problem of classification of quandles, we also describe an algorithm implemented in C for computing all quandles (up to isomorphism) of order less than or equal to nine.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-12-23T20:35:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "inner automorphism group", "isomorphism", "affine group", "integers mod", "dihedral quandle" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1012.5291E" } } }
