Precisely we classify all Alexander quandle structures, up to isomorphism, on the real line and the unit circle. For the closed unit interval $[0, 1]$, we conjecture that there exists only one topological quandle structure on it, i.e. the trivial one. Some evidences are provided to support our conjecture.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-03-02T00:30:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "classification", "alexander quandle structures", "simple manifolds", "unit circle", "conjecture" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
