cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A rack is involutory if it satisfies the identity y(yx) = x. In particular, involutory quandles are called kei.
A rack is medial if it satisfies the identity (xy)(uv) = (xu)(yv).
a(n) is also the number of medial Legendrian kei (i.e., medial kei equipped with Legendrian structures) up to order n up to isomorphism; see Ta, Theorem 1.1.
a(n) is also the number of medial symmetric kei (i.e., medial kei equipped with good involutions) up to order n up to isomorphism; see Ta, "Equivalences of...," Corollary 1.3.

A good involution f of a quandle Q is an involution that commutes with all inner automorphisms and satisfies the identity f(y)(x) = y^-1(x). We call the pair (Q,f) a symmetric quandle. A symmetric quandle isomorphism is a quandle isomorphism that intertwines good involutions.

A good involution f of a quandle Q is an involution that commutes with all inner automorphisms and satisfies the identity f(y)(x) = y^-1(x). We call the pair (Q,f) a symmetric quandle. A symmetric quandle isomorphism is a quandle isomorphism that intertwines good involutions.
A core quandle Core(G) is a group G viewed as a kei (i.e., involutory quandle) under the operation g(h) = g*h^-1*g. Note that Core(G) is nontrivial if and only if exp(G) > 2.

Examples

			For n = 4 the only nontrivial core quandle is the dihedral quandle R4 = Core(Z/4Z) of order 4. It is well-known (see Thm. 3.2 of Kamada and Oshiro) that R4 has exactly four good involutions. Hence a(4) = 4.
For n = 6 the only nontrivial core quandles are Core(S3) and R6 = Core(Z/6Z), which have one and two good involutions, respectively. Hence a(6) = 3.

Formula

Let n > 2. Then Ta, Cor. 7.17 implies the following. If n appears in A000040 or A050384, then a(n) = 1. If n appears in A221048, then a(n) = 2. If n > 4 and n appears in A100484, then a(n) = 3.

Comments

A Legendrian quandle is a pair (X,u) where X is a quandle and u is an involutory automorphism of X such that u(yx)=y(u(x)); see Ta, "Generalized Legendrian...," Corollary 3.13.
a(n) is also the number of racks X such that the kink map X -> X defined by x -> x(x) is an involution; see Ta, "Equivalences of...," Theorem 1.1.

Comments

A virtual rack is a rack equipped with a distinguished rack automorphism. Two virtual racks (R1,f1), (R2,f2) are isomorphic if there exists a rack isomorphism g: R1 -> R2 such that g*f1 = f2*g.
