S. Kamada introduced the notion of a quandle with a good involution, which is later called a symmetric quandle. We are interested in the algebraic structure of symmetric quandles. Given a group $G$, an element $z$ and a certain subgroup $H$, one can obtain the quandle. D. Joyce showed that every quandle is isomorphic to the disjoint union of such quandles. In this paper, given a group $G$, elements $z,r$ in $G$ and a certain subgroup $H$, we construct a symmetric quandle. Futhermore, we show that every symmetric quandle is isomorphic to the disjoint union of such quandles.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-02-22T09:15:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57K10", "57K12" ], "keywords": [ "symmetric quandle", "homogeneous presentation", "algebraic structure", "disjoint union", "knot theory" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
