We also include a stand-alone C program which finds quandles of order $n$ and provide URLs for files containing the results for $n=6,$ 7 and 8.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-04-18T20:34:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M27", "57-04" ], "keywords": [ "finite quandle", "symbolic computation", "arbitrary binary operation tables", "maple implementations", "knot quandle" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......8351H" } } }
